Growing Up So Fast

Well time just flies by with this little guy in our lives. He is usually so much fun to have around, but I must say that I love it when he takes long naps or plays in his crib after he wakes up. I know I don't have too much time cause he has been asleep for 3 hours now... but I have gotten some stuff done in that time. I still need to work on the house a bit... that will come. I know it is almost impossible to have a clean house now, Adam likes to dump out his toys soon after I put them away. April 22 I like remotes Mommy! He was putting his fingers under the door until I tried to take a picture... I miss a lot of cue pictures cause as soon as he sees me and the camera he stops the cute things that he is doing.April 23. Adam had about a week when he was just acting tired and clingy. He had a fever for a few days and then got a rash on his tummy. We took him to the doctor and were told he had roseola, just a virus that needed to pass. That is why he is in PJs for a lot of these pictures. After he dumped his toy bin he decided he needed to climb into it.April 24 The Easter Bunny Came Adam wasn't too sure about all this stuff on the floor and couldn't understand why mom and dad where trying to get him to pick them upThat was until he opened an Easter Egg and realized there was candy inside...Then he couldn't get enough of the eggsThe Easter Bunny even brought some toys. Those were fun once the candy was out of sight. For a few days after Easter Adam would bring me an egg for me to open. He would get so upset when I would open it and there wasn't any candy inside. He is better about it now. He loves to play with the eggs and they haven't had candy in them for awhile so he is better now.Adam still loves cups. He can even keep them in his mouth without his hands.April 25
Adam likes to play with our shoe racks, and bring them into the center of the room and then play in them.April 28
We had a meeting at the community center and Adam was getting a little tired of being good in the meeting so he started to wander around with Daddy. He liked watching the guys playing basketball so Scott took him upstairs to keep him out of the way. When upstairs he played around for a bit and then he still just wanted to watch basketball. Scott eventually had to take him back downstairs since he wanted to go through the fence to be closer to the game.May 1
Yummy mashed potatoes! Adam didn't want me to feed him so I let him go at it. He started with his fingers and got the potatoes all over and then he started eating with his spoon.Adam decided to stand on the bag and was waving his arms around. We thought he was trying to call everyone to repentance... he also loves to play peek-a-boo with our curtains. He also loves to pounce me.May 2 This is another picture where I couldn't get a great shot. He pulled this out, flipped it upside down and stood on top of it. He is starting to get down at this point.

Adam is growing up so fast. He is starting to let us know what he wants. Yesterday he brought us an applesauce and got mad when we didn't drop everything to start feeding him. When I went to start and I had to get a spoon he wasn't very happy. Today I was starting to get him some breakfast and pulled out a banana. He got SO excited but wasn't too happy when it took some time to get it on a plate and on the table. While I was making lunch today Adam once again got out an applesauce and this time he stuck his fingers through the lid to get into it. I caught him before he made too much of a mess. I find that sometimes I get frustrated with our little guy... but then I find that I need to stop and remember how lucky we are to have our little guy. It is when I take the time to get down on the floor and play with him that I start to do so much better. I guess that helps me remember what is really important and how lucky I am to be a mommy to such a special little boy!
