From bath and beyond

Fisher loves bath time. The only part he hates is when he has to get out. Then he throws a fit. He seems to really adore his rubber ducky too.


Our little Fisherman caught his first trout with dad at Ruth Lake. It's a beauty! Cute story: a little girl at church saw Adam and Fisher and she tugged on her mom's pants, looked up at her and said, "Mom look, there's Fisherman!"



Fisher helped me garden the other day. He really likes to be outside. He just soaks it all in. He looked so cute in his new sun hat I got from a Recycled youth store for $1.75. He's been making this new face where he sticks out his lower lip and of course blows slobber all over.

For Adam's birthday in March I had been working on a quilt made from our old jeans. I started in January. I wanted it to be a surprise which meant a lot of cleaning up every day! But, he was surprised! I made it especially long because I know he likes long blankets. It turned out to be a little bigger than 6 ft by 9 ft. There are some crooked spots, but for my first quilt I'm pretty impressed. I'm just glad it's over!!! Any way, I had to brag about it.

Fisher went to the doctor on Tuesday. He was so funny waiting in the doctor's office naked. He loves to be naked. He was a happy camper up until the shots. He's been grumpy ever since. Yesterday he rolled from front to back for the first time. He did it twice then when I got the camera out he wouldn't do it again. He hasn't done it since actually. According to his visit on Tuesday, Fisher is 18 lbs and 6 oz. That is the 97th percentile. But his height is only 25 inches which is average. So, we have a short, fat kid!!!

This video is probably a month old but I love the faces Fisher makes in his sleep.

4 months

Oh how time flies. Fisher is 4 months and has been impressing me with more hand coordination and babble. The last two days he's been laughing and squealing in response to me doing something silly for him. I can't believe he is mine. This little boy came from Adam and me. What a miracle. I've taken Fisher with me to a couple worship practices. He's been totally content to watch and listen and even sings along! Pastor Chuck was sitting next to him and said that he was singing on key! My little Fish is gonna be a worshiper! Next week we will find out how much he's grown. He is huge. He's been wearing 6-9 month clothes and needs 9 month pants. The pants are a little long but fit perfect around his bulbous mid section. I just bought size 4 diapers. They are a tid bit too big but the 3's aren't catching the flying poop up the back anymore. I can only handle so many changes of clothes a day.

Fisher and I went on a walk. It was sunny so I decided to put a baseball cap on to shade his eyes. He looks so darn cute. Doesn't he look like Elmer Fudd?

Fisher loves his Dad.

What's on the boob tube dad?
