CantWait replied:
Yeah!!!!!!!!!!!! I love answering all these questions.

Anthony loves his and really looks up to him. he gets all upset when he sees Robbie leave for school in the morning, and when he gets home, his face lights up. When Robbie goes to bed, he's at his door trying to get in, or at the very least get his toys.

He does like books, we have a couple soft baby ones, he like the touch and feel animal book we have, and his favourite is Barney goes to the Farm.

He doesn't watch tv yet, but I think he's going to love that Purple dinosaur.

He's in a size 4 diaper now, I can't believe it, there starting to get tight, but it's suppose to be up to 33 lbs I think.

CantWait replied:
I mostly like to use anything by Johnsons except their diaper rash cream.

We sing A LOT of twinkle twinkle little star and you are my sunshine, they calm him down a lot of the times when he's overbearing.

When he was first born, I played a lullaby tape for him that had heartbeat sounds and soft music, he doesn't really like it anymore, so he just listens to whatever I listen to now.

hahaha beautiful, funny and DIFFICULT

CantWait replied:
Anthony eats pretty much anything we eat. His favourite baby food would be mixed meats with vegetables, favourite big people food is beans Kidney or in a burrito, and he absolutely loves noodles. He's not a big fruit person though.

I think he looks a lot like daddy if you were to pick a parent. However if you were to look at a picture of his big brother at his age, they're identical.

He says Dadadadadada, but don't all kids this age LOL I think he may of tried to dog also, because of our puppy.

His newest thing for making him laugh is when you sit him on your lap and make him box you. He cracks up at that.

I laugh at him all the time, whenever he blows raspberries, or when he learns something new and looks up at you looking all proud, that makes me laugh cause he's so cute.

He has his ticklish days. Sometimes under his armpitts or at the sides of his tummy. Or if you "eat" his tummy

CantWait replied:
I took him to the park when he was 2 months old, it's been too cold since. He loved the swing. I can't wait till the warm weather comes though.

I don't know what size shoe he wears

He's very outgoing. I learned today that he isn't shy and will go to strangers. I guess he hasn't hit that stage yet.

CantWait replied:
He loves to take a bath, and splash in the water. When he's not doing that, he loves to get into mischeif, either by trying to pull plugs out of the walls, or climb on the dog

I'm a sucker for his little bum, I love baby tushes. His toes are also too cute.

He loves to give kisses, and will do so if you ask. They're so nice and slobby. His hugs to me are more like arms around my head with a fist full of my hair

CantWait replied:
No sports yet, unless climbing counts. He's trying to climb stairs, mom, the dog, just about anything.

Bathtime is his favourite thing, as long as he's in a good mood. He also loves the dog.

He's now 17 and a half lbs. 28 inches long.

Lots makes him smile, seeing the dog, when his big brother comes home from school, when I get him from his crib in the morning, when he accomplishes something new, or when he's doing something he shouldn't be LOL

CantWait replied:
He is definetly a mommas boy. I think that's in part to him being breastfed and being with just mom for the first 4 and a half months.

I guess he probably responds to me best, just depending on his mood. At night it's usually dad for some reason.

His favourite toys is this odd little bug look like thingy that rattles, and when you squeeze his feet it crinkles. It's got all different colours and patterns on it.

I love to take him on walks in his stroller, but lately I've been really down and the weather has been on and off so I haven't done a lot of that. I'm not big on taking him out to the mall or stuff like that cause he only stays calm for a bit and then he gets restless, so we stay home A LOT

Labor was pretty tolerable for the first 13 hours or so, then I got tired, and once they broke my water the contractions got very intense. It was 14 and a half hours all together.

My favourite time is probably after his naps, cause he's so cuddly.

He's got a temper from HE double hockey sticks. If he doesn't get what he wants, you take something away from him or walk away from him, he screams bloody murder and crys bloody murder and won't stop. 2's are going to be horrible.

CantWait replied:
Thankyou very much I agree

He has no teeth yet, I think it's going to be awhile

I'll post the most recent pic I have of him, but I think I may have posted them already.

Our pet is Dusty. he's a golden lab. Nice to it, hmmmmmm what do you call tugging on his tail, pulling his whiskers and ears, and climbing all over it. LOL. he's loves him, but he's not very nice to him No

A little of both. With naps we co sleep or he sleeps in my arms or else he won't go down. At night he sleeps in his cribs, I co slept with him till dh got home from overseas, but he's afraid to roll over on him.

Nope we searched the internet high and low for spanish names that we both liked. Anthony Christian is what I came up with.

That's sort of tough. I think just having enough time to spend with Robbie playing games and taking him to movies and stuff like that. It's hard to do a lot of the stuff with Robbie that we would normally do cause Anthony is so young and depends so much on me.

CantWait replied: Here's his most recent pic, he's eating his favourite food, noodles.

kimberley replied: was he baptized/ christened? do you have pics?
what is the worst thing he has done that you cracked up laughing about?
what is his favorite thing to do with Robbie?
does he play well with other babies?
is he a snuggly nurser or an acrobat nurser?
what is his latest achievement?

CantWait replied:
Unlike his brother, Anthony was not baptised. For a couple reasons....maybe some day in the future, Robbie wasn't until he was almost a year anyways.

The worst thing, probably when he gets in the mood to blow Raspberries all day. He does it constantly and won't stop. It's the cutest thing but at the same time, he picks the wrong time to do it, like to strangers LOL

He just likes to be with Robbie. He'll try and make him laugh and it always works.

He loves other babies, he just stares at them. It should be interesting to see what he'll do now that he can crawl over to them.

Anthony is only snuggly when he wants to sleep, any other time he nurses he kicks his feet and jumps around. My poor boobs are paying the price.

His latest achievement is pulling himself up and standing on furniture, and he can now get from a laying down position to a sitting up position. He's starting to try and stand on his own now also He puts his hands on the floor and then his feet flat on the ground, and puts his little bum in the air.

Guest replied: He is ADORABLE!

What do you think he will be when he grows up?

Do you have a favorite outfit for him?

How many hours does he sleep?

Have you taken him on vacation yet?

Kirstenmumof3 replied: What is his favourate TV program?

What is his favourate animal?

Does he feed himself yet?

CantWait replied:
Sorry these are coming so late. And thankyou

Right now by the way his little bum works (the farting ), I'd say he's going to be a pirotechnitian (sp?)

My favorite outfit on him is his gray jogging pants and his Toronto Maple Leafs jursey.

He usually sleep about 9 hours at night, with one middle of the night feeding.

He's only been to the mountains, and that was a one day trip when he was 1 day old Hopefully soon he'll be visiting his Nana, Great-Grandma and Uncle in Toronto.

CantWait replied:
Anthony hasn't shown a big interest in TV yet, but I think when the time comes he's going to like Barney

His favourite animal would have to be a dog, cause he's got one at home and loves to torture it.

Nope he can't feed himself quite yet. he likes to grab the spoon and help me put it in his mouth, and he grabs things like cherrios with his hands but can't grasp it between his fingers yet.
