...like a weed!!

Dane's updated statistics from last Wednesday's 4-month checkup:

Weight: 14 lb. 9 oz. (55th percentile)

Length: 26 1/4 inches (95th percentile)

Dane loves to watch our dog Teddy play in the backyard.

Every girl's dream- two men that help with the housework!

"Hey Mommy, I love you!"

Hammin' it up!

Just 2 days shy of turning 4 months old, we finally got Dane in for his 3-month pictures today!

Little All-Star

Our sweetie was pretty exhausted after we played in an all-night outdoor grass court volleyball tournament last night. He did sleep a little in his playpen next to the courts, but not his usual 8-9 hour stretch. Cousin Ellie will also be happy to see that Dane has taken her advice and is putting his thumb to good use!

" Daddy, this grass tickles my toes!"

Video blogging

This is just a rough video that I took yesterday of Dane talking to me. The lighting is awful, but I'm just playing around with this video blogging thing. Here goes...

All smiles!

Last weekend

Grampy and Grammy just left us yesterday. They came to visit us last Thursday evening and enjoyed lots of quality time with Dane! They got their blog updated before us, so you can click on the "Dad and Mom" link to the right if you want to see pictures. We hope they can back again soon!!

On the move!

Dane has really begun to scoot himself around these days. His favorite toy is his activity mat with little fish that he can play with.

Turned just a little bit sideways (we lay him down straight with the mat).

We happened to look down tonight and Dane had turned himself a complete 180 degrees. He thought the little beach ball looked like more fun than the fish, apparently!

Mommy's Boys

Another night at the ballpark!

We went to another 51's game last night with Jeff, Renee, and Cubby. If he's on time, we should meet Cubby in another 3 weeks!

Not a very exciting game... Dane decided to take a nap.

Cubby and Dane

Wishing everyone a safe and fun 4th!!
