Meeting Pop's friend Bennett and his daughter Bailey

Mack is 17 weeks now and he is so active! He is constantly chewing on his hands and he would rather be sitting up or standing up than laying down for sure. He wants to see everything that is going on around him. He has started drinking about 5 ounces at a time now and he usually eats every 4 hours. We have tried banana and apple baby food so far and he didn't care for either of them. He just spits it out and acts like I am feeding him motor oil or something. :) I know that he will get used to to it soon enough. We put him in his crib for the first time this week and he did so good on the first night! He did just like he usually does in his pack-n-play in our bedroom. I did sleep upstairs in the "man cave" just in case he needed me. The first night he woke up one time and drank his bottle and went back to sleep until morning. The next 3 nights were not so easy, he was up almost every hour whining. I would go in and put his passy in and he would go back to sleep but he didn't stay asleep very long. I guess he just has to get used to sleeping in that room. He likes the crib toy that shows the animals on the ceiling but it only stays on for 10 minutes so if it goes off and he is still awake he will usually whine. After the first night of sleeping in his bed in his woombie he started fighting the woombie every night. It would make him so mad and keep him awake so now we are not even using it anymore. He sleeps in between 2 pillows with his arms over his head and his legs stretched out. 

He loves to go to Pop's store, Bonds Appliance, and visit with the girls. Bet Bet and Diane spoil him even more than he already is. He just smiles at both of them, I have a feeling he is going to be a store rat once he gets old enough to stay there a lot. We went on a visit to see Mamaw Bobbie and Gene and Mamaw and Papaw Howard. Mack did so good while we were out. He smiled at everyone and was really happy! 

Is he getting so big so fast. He has grown out of all of his 3 month clothes and most of his 3-6 month clothes are really tight. He can wear 6 month onesies but he is wearing 6-9 month pajamas and bubble outfits. We are running out of clothes! He has his fussy days and he has great days when is just the happiest baby ever! When he cries the most is in the car, he absolutely hates the car! He screams like we have just broken his arm and then put him in car seat. If someone is back there with him it is not as bad, and usually as soon as we get him out of his seat he is fine and stops crying! I think that means that he is rotten! haha. More posts to come soon...18 weeks and 4th of July!
