A few new tricks

Not a whole lot has changed, last week Landon weighed 14lb 3.2 ounces, he is 16 weeks old already!! :) We tried his doorway jumper, he mostly just dangles there but he was entertained enough to not fuss about being in there :) He is just starting to reach for/bat at things, looking forward to him playing with all of his toys. He is also doing really good holding up his head during tummy time, which makes the mirror fun!! Overall he is a happy little boy, he is all smiles first thing in the morning which is always fun, although Matt and I can't figure out how we produced such a morning person.....

Ahh the great outdoors...

Snuggled with grandma downstairs it was time to go, so she brought the whole snuggle upstairs and to the kitchen, he was definitely out! *disclaimer* we don't make a habit of counter-top naps :)

He's made good friends with the boy in the mirror :)

Another try in the high chair...

Christmas and other things

We had a busy and fun Christmas, celebrating together our little family for the first time :) Uncle Austin came to visit from the Seattle area, and we made our first out of state trip to Oklahoma to visit great grandparents and celebrate Christmas. Landon is busy smiling and becoming more active, we've successfully fought off out first cold,  and he's weighing in at 13lbs now and has been to the babysitters for the first time. Which means my maternity leave is officially over :( So hard, but I'm anxious to get into a new routine with our little family. Enjoy the photo review of the past few weeks :)

Trying out uncle Austin's new ski goggles, this is also one of the only pictures we took on Christmas day... nice mom. :)

Cuddle pile!!

Grandpa Tony is on his way to the Dominican Republic for this years' mission trip with MMI, Landon tried to stow away, luckily we caught him just in time :)

Life is "Entertaining"

We've been keeping busy attempting to live life successfully... :) Basically keeping clean and fed. Sleeping is a bonus. Landon is doing well, starting to smile a little bit and enjoy toys and "entertaining" more.  He was weighed again today and is 11lb 8oz, gaining about 1 1/2 oz a day!

"Entertaining"

Getting to know the local wildlife

Sunday at church, this week Matt became a member of our church, Landon was very excited :)

Matt's family threw us a WONDERFUL baby shower, this is Landon's diaper bike!! How cute is that!?!

Hanging out watching his favorite football team! (sorry Jodi, he'll be saying "pee-yew" Chiefs in no time)

but he looked hungry...

So today I decided that Landon had grown up enough (he weighed 10lb 0.7oz last week and 10lb 11.6oz yesterday at the doctor's) and was ready to try out his high chair, after only a little frustration I had it up and ready to go. Landon was somewhat amused...

We thought he looked hungry, he didn't go for it...

We also thought it was time to try out the Bumbo seat

That's right... check out that action shot! :)

His 2 month doctor's appointment went well, he's healthy and right on track. Shots were traumatic but probably a bit more for mom and dad than Landon.

Thanksgiving and other happenings

Things have been good here in Landon land... :) Last Tuesday he weighed in at 9lbs 7.6oz. He's grown out of most of his newborn outfits, I'm desperately holding on to a few of them. I had sad mommy times packing it all up :( But I am so glad he is growing so well. Over Thanksgiving week Matt's sister and brother in law and their daughter Sadie came home from California to visit, we had a lot of fun getting to spend time together! We got to see most of our extended family over the holiday which was so fun.

Landon has given us a few little smiles, he is starting to be a little more interactive and it has been so fun.
He also rolled over.... I know right WhAt?!?! but he did, several weeks ago he did it and it was a flailing accident. Several days ago he flailed onto his side and then slowly worked his way over (tummy to back). Then two days ago he was mad during tummy time and rolled over, we were so proud, Matt turned him over to finish tummy time and I went downstairs for some laundry. I came back up to find him on his back again, Matt said I wasn't even downstairs before he had rolled over again. So we flipped him again and in about 30 seconds he had himself turned over onto his back!! Yay! I still can't believe it... 

We're due for a weigh-in tomorrow so stay tuned... :)

right after our first smile... lucky dad...

All the Stucky cousins... left, Audrey and her brother Waylon, Mackenzie holding Sadie, Brenton holding Landon. Can't wait to see how different the next cousin picture is!!

First Thanksgiving... he looked pretty enthused with my meal but he probably was more confused than anything. :)

Like Father Like Son

This is far too good! Just found my boys zonked out and had to share :)

I am laughing again just looking at it!! The funny thing is just beyond my computer screen is the real deal, luckily Landon is not snoring like dad at the moment :)

Grandparents Parade

All of Landon's Grandparents have had a chance to meet and hold our little man. It was recently brought to my attention that the blog lacked grandparents...

[please note it can be difficult to get a grandparent to look at a camera when holding Landon]
