Our little athlete

So since Mikey was about 4 months old our pediatrician has told us that he is "pretty solid" or strong. His weight has been in the 90% or above for a while. I'm not surprised by this. Michael was just like this as a baby and after Noelle got out of her "preemie-ness" she gained weight like crazy it seemed. But she was never like our big "solid" Mikey :). Lately all Mikey wants to do is be on the ground and move. This has actually helped me keep the floors clear, mostly of small things that he could put in his mouth. As he rolls around he is finding big things that he can lift and pull on top of him. Not dangerous big things, but kid/baby big things. He doesn't even mind and seems to quite enjoy it. It just cracks me up every time I see him like this and I can't help but take a picture.

Lifting Noelle's baby stroller on top of him. Besides having it on top of him you will notice that he has also stuck it in his mouth, hahaha

Noelle's princess chair :)


This is Mikey using his music toy to do pull-ups. Seriously.

And this is just Mikey getting caught in one of Noelle's baskets as he's rolling around the bedroom floor.

Something I didn't mention in any other post is that Noelle and Mikey share a room now. We just have two bedrooms and the kids are actually in the master. I had some other friends in our apartment complex that did the same thing earlier and I have to admit I thought it was kind of crazy :). But low and behold thinking about it, it seemed like a really great idea. Mikey was in our room and in a pack-n-play and no one was sleeping as well as they should have been. A crib and a twin bed would not fit very comfortably in Noelle's little room, so it just seemed logical to make the switch. Now all of Noelle's toys fit in the room and they have a lot of space to play. Michael and I have had a way smaller room before and plus we now have a little extra storage space since we blocked off the bathroom area in the master. It took a week or so but they do so well in the room together. Mikey is sleeping through the night and so is Noelle. It's worked wonderfully for us.
