Four months

You my dear are four months old. You amaze us each and everyday not only with all you do but how much joy you bring to our little family. 

I am convinced that you are going to one tall kid, you wont quit growing. You now weigh about 16 pounds and are about 27 inches long! A lot has started happening this month, you completely hold your head up on your own now and you even enjoy tummy time.. most of the time! You even rolled over for the first time this month. You were pretty surprised once it happened and gave is one of your famous bright bug eyed looks, don't worry though you'll soon learn to love this :)

You have experienced your first thanksgiving, even if you are on a liquid diet, hopefully you were able to get a hint of those yummy flavors because I sure did eat a ton!! We had thanksgiving on the beach with our Hawaiian family and it was a blast. A wonderfully warm evening at gas chambers, surrounded by delicious food, lots of laughter and of course splash splashing in the ocean waves as the sun sets. It was quite possibly the best thanksgiving we've ever had (sorry mom and dad!) 

You're exploring your toys, your hands, your feet and your whole little world around you. You are a huge flirt who loves to smile at everyone, and these smiles are still the most amazing thing I have ever seen. I just adore spending my days with you. The joy that you bring me and the happiness you add to our little family is truly wonderful. I can't even imagine life with out you now and look forward to your next milestones as they all come WAY to fast!

 Slow down little man and enjoy being little. We love you.

Three Months

Sweet little boy you are three months old, I can not even believe it! You did not have a doctors visit this month, however when we weighed and measured you ourselves you came in at a whopping 14.5 pounds and 26 inches long. You are one tall baby! When people meet you for the first time and discover your age they always comment on how big you are. Must be feeding you something good because you're still growing like a weed :)

You are conquering your head control, and I am enjoying the freedom of not having to worry so much about your little neck. Although, you have quite a huge noggin and keeping that thing up on your own for long periods of time is still something we are working on. Tummy time is getting better, and you enjoy laying there for up to ten minutes at a time now! 

Our typical day still consists of lots of naps, (which I love, and sometimes take a nap as well) lots of play time, walks for duke and plenty of eating!! Sleeping habits still have not really formed, you are pretty hit and miss. A wonderful sleeper who "sleeps through the night" but sometimes you nap for 30 minutes others for 2 hours. You always sleep for a good 7 hour stretch at night before you wake up for one or two late night feedings. When I'm smart I go to bed when you do and get some good sleep with you!!

You celebrated your first big holiday this month, Halloween! You were the cutest little baby shark who helped us pass out candy to our neighbor kids. Everyone loved your sweet costume and so did mommy and daddy.

You are really starting to explore your toys now and quite enjoying your safari play mat! Rattles and stuffed animals are fun to cuddle and suck on. Lets face it, everything is fun to suck on! You are getting really good at reaching for and grabbing things which means most everything goes into your mouth. Depth perception is not your friend, and you can not always control how fast your hands go to your mouth with causes for lots of poked eyeballs and noses! It makes me giggle, but you don't enjoy it as much as I do :) 

We took an adventure to your first movie and you loved it!! We still are not sure if this is a good thing  or not. Your eyes lit up when you saw the movie screen and sat quietly through out the whole thing. You even managed a little nap in there somehow, you amaze me!

Your cute little eyes are still as blue as ever and I am hoping they continue to stay that way. You are passing your smiles around to everyone now, such a social butterfly! You bring out the best in all of us and we love having you around. Keep up the wonderful work little man, you're amazing!!
