15 weeks old

I am growing bigger and bigger every day. Daddy weighed me the other day and says I'm about 15 lbs. I'm getting very tall. I am wearing 3-6 month clothes, so I'm right on track. They fit me in length, but they are sometimes big in the tummy. I am starting to do more. I really like sitting up, and try to pull myself up. I like to sit in my bumbo seat. I like to play with toys and put everything in my mouth. My mouth hurts sometimes because I am getting something that Mommy and Daddy call teeth. I'm not sure what they are for yet, but I will learn. I drool a lot and Mommy and Daddy make me wear bibs, they whip my face with them, so I do that now too. I can take my pacifier out of my mouth and sometimes I can get it back in, but sometimes I just play with it. I had an interesting week. Mommy's work was closed on Monday because of something called a water main break. So we stayed home and played. Mommy worked from home some this week and I did go to daycare to play with my friends. On Thursday Mommy's computer stopped working and she had to fix it. I helped her and made sure that none of my pictures or work went missing. On Thursday I went to see my orthopedist. My casts are off and I only have braces now. It's great. Mommy and Daddy can take them off and stretch my feet. I can have real baths now too. And guess what I did on Friday, I rolled over from my tummy to my back while in my crib. Mommy and Daddy were so excited, but I don't want to go it again right now. For the last week I have been a big boy and Mommy and Daddy moved me into my room in my crib. I love having more room to spread out when I sleep, and Mommy and Daddy are just a cry away. Yesterday Bubbie and Pop-Pop came to visit me. I showed them how much I like to play. Today Mommy and Daddy set up my exersaucer. Wow it has so much for me to do, I haven't even tried it all yet. Uncle Paul came over on his way back from Pittsburgh to have dinner with us. We went to a place that had a big football game on. The TV screens were gigantic. I asked Daddy if we could have one in our house just like that:)
Something I had forgotten about in my last post was that on Dec. 15th I went to see the Maryland Symphony Orchestra for the first time. Uncle Paul and his choir were singing Christmas music. I really liked listening to the pretty music.
Well I'd better start to get ready for bedtime. Tonight I will get in my PJs have a story, eat, and then go to sleep in my big crib. Mommy says that she will help me update my pictures soon. She doesn't know what work will be like this week. Goodnight.
Love always,
Gideon

Hey Gideon. Can you and your mommy get together sometime soon? Maybe the week of February 4th?
