Month five has come and gone. Where is the time going? Each day just goes by in a way that I didn't think was possible when all day is filled with rice cereal, diaper changes, little naps, and dangling toys.
Here is how the month went:
Nicknames we have used: BurgerButt, Little Man, Pork Chop, Budda Baby
Most persistent habit: Finger sucking, Fist chewing and Object grabbing. Apparently, he wants to eat the world or anything that comes along his way.
Chunky Monkey likes: eating rice cereal; sleeping at night but not during the day; laying n the floor and reaching for his toys; screeching and listening to his voice; going on car rides; people watching; and being nosy when anyone enters the room. He loves pulling mommy's hair and eating her face, cheeks and chin.
Lugnut dislike: teething; dirty diapers; cold weather, especially when the wind takes his breath away; stopping at stop signs while riding in the van; dogs barking at the mailman or dishwasher; and gets mad at "Chewy" (his chew toy) for hitting him in the head.
Favorite Book: Green Eggs and Ham by Dr. Seuss
Favorite Nursery Rhyme: This little piggie went to the market...
Places I went: Visit to see Grandma & Grandpa Rickman at the Lake; Uncle Mark's & Aunt Tammy's on Christmas Day; Little Rock, Iowa to visit Great Grandma B. and cousin Lauren
Favorite moment: Spending Christmas with family and watching Grandma B hold her great grandson. What a special memory. I can't wait to tell Patrick how much his family loves him. Everyone wanted to hold him as we celebrated his first Christmas on three occasions.Mommy's favorite moment: Breastfeeding my baby as he holds my hand and snuggles next to me.
Highlight: And let's not forget The Smiles. Oh my goodness, the smiles. Patrick has the cutest dimples and will smile and giggle. But when momma enters the room, my heart melts when he flashes his big brown eyes at me. That rocks!
