MEET MARCO

I am 5 months old today! My parents decided it was time to get a highchair for me. I don’t get to eat food for another month, but they thought I would enjoy sitting up at the table with them for short periods of time, just to get used to it. I’ve only tried the chair once but I really like it!! Mom says no food until I am 6.. Read More

I do all my sleeping in my crib now. I still don’t like to go to sleep, and I still sleep in my magic sleepsuit because if I don’t, I wake myself up right away. I do really like waking up though. Sometimes my parents will take me out of my sleepsuit and let me hang out in the crib for a few minutes. I usually end up on my.. Read More

I’m quickly figuring out how to get from one place to another. I can flip and wiggle and suddenly I’m somewhere new! This morning, my mom put me on my gray blanket (see the “x” for exact placement) and within about 10 minutes I had rolled myself into my activity gym, out of it, and onto the hardwood floor. I kind of like the hardwood because it’s easier to scoot.. Read More

The weather is getting cold and rainy, so we spent the afternoon playing inside. I did a lot of tummy time with Shay. I played my Busy Guitar for him. At one point, I wriggled my way under the coffee table with him, but mom wasn’t fast enough to get that on film! Later on, Aunt Gail came over to watch some soccer with my parents. She was wearing a.. Read More

I love books! My family and I read all the time. My current favorite is the literary classic “Brown Bear, Brown Bear, What Do You See?” I also really like “Trucks,” but “Brown Bear” has a more gripping storyline. I read it every day!

Dad dressed me fancy today. I’m wearing a sweater Mom knit for me, and shoes that are a bit too large but they still look cute! Mom and Dad wanted to take some pictures of me all dressed up. Unfortunately, they only got a few pictures in when I decided I did not feel like being photographed. I usually love having my picture taken, but I was a little grumpy.. Read More

Today I went to baby Tarak’s first birthday party. I had never been to a birthday party before! It was Very exciting! There were so many kids running around and having fun. I am too young to eat cake, but not too young to wear a party hat!

I’ve been going along each day, growing cuter and cuter! Here I am in my bouncy chair. Mom calls it my office! Today was pretty chilly. Mom put me in the sweater and hat she knit me. The sweater is still big on me, but the hat fits just perfectly! I can tell they were made with lots of love!

My mom takes me to meetings where there are other babies, most older than me. I see them crawling around and I think to myself, “Hey, I can do that!” So I’ve been working on my push-ups. I can get pretty high now and even get myself in a plank position. I just need to work on getting my knees under my body. Then it’s on!!

Ok, so apparently mom and dad are tired (literally) of my sleeping habits. They are so desperate that they bought me something called a magic sleepsuit. I look ridiculous in this thing! However, it does weigh my arms down so they don’t flail all over the place. I am still waking up about every two hours at night, but I have gotten a few three hour stretches while wearing this..
