My Baby is No Longer "The" Baby...

...at daycare, that is!  Today we found out that there is a new little 4 month old baby boy at daycare!  His name is Anthony & is cute as a button, but that means that our baby is not THE baby!  This made both Gordon and I kinda sad!!  Cody is growing up so fast -- too fast!  Oh, he will still be doted on and probably still laughed at by all the other kids, and I'm sure he'll still get lots of attention, but it won't be entirely the same.  At least he will have a buddy to play with in several months :)  They seem so different now, but they're really only half a year apart.  Apparently, Cody tried to "get" the baby when he was on the floor, etc.  I remember when Cody was about that age and there was a 9-10 month old little girl there...I guess she would just set her sights on him and go after him!!  Fair's fair :)

Cody is really moving around now.  The baby gates had to come up at daycare!  His new thing is that he likes to ROLL everywhere!!  He's not crawling on all fours quite yet, although now he gets on his hands and knees and stands on his tiptoes....ummmm....wow!  That takes some serious strength.  Not really sure what he is trying to accomplish with that one.  But yeah, rolling is all the rage these days.  He rolled around us in circles the other night!  We just laughed and laughed.  

Cody learned to say "Uh Oh" over the Christmas holiday.  It's so cute, but it'll be nice when  he knows how to say some other words.  He does say "Mamamama" especially when he needs something, and does other babbling too, although much to Gordon's dismay, "Dadadada" does not seem to be in his vocabulary quite yet.

I guess the bottom line is ~ he'll always be OUR baby!
