Long boy update
The boy turns one year old next week! Lots has changed in a year—he walks and talks, for example—and lots hasn’t—he’s still as loud as a truck and tractor pull. The baby voice is disappearing and the little piping boy voice is becoming more common. He’s been talking since a little after the ten-month mark,…
He walks!
The boy is offiicially a walker. We decided a few weeks ago that “walking” is being able to launch yourself where you want to go rather than mama and papa putting you up on your feet to walk back and forth between them. By that definition, Guthrie is a walker. Wobbly, true, but he can…

He rolls over!
This evening, on his four-month birthday, Guthrie rolled over for the first time.

Mama rushed in when she heard Papa’s cheering and found the boy looking slightly stunned to be on…
The Bruiser: 17 pounds at Three Months, in the Weight Class of a Six-Month Old
The boy’s belly is a bit more proportional than it used to be, but he’s still a very big boy. Weigh-in at the new pediatrician’s office confirmed him at 17 pounds. He’s not gaining a pound a week anymore, but the doctor says he’s about as big as the average six-month-old. His mental development is…
Two months!
We’ve been negligent posting pictures of the boy, so here’s a gallery of him at two months, and, as a bonus, video! Look at those smiles.
