Four Months!!

Brody Bear you are Four Months Old today!!!

What have you been up to?

* You have the best personality!

* You smile at your momma, daddy and sister ALL the time!

* Avery is your favorite! You turn your head and look for her all the time! When you see her or hear her you get the biggest smile!

* Avery can make you crack up in the biggest way! All she has to do is look at you with a silly face and you laugh so hard! Almost to where you can't catch your breathe! She is the only one you will laugh like this for!

* You also laugh when you are tickled, when we kiss your tummy or when we act really silly!

* You have really noticed Bruiser this month. You aren't to sure about him, but you like to look at him and touch him!

* You can really grab a hold of your toys now. And, they go straight to your mouth as does everything else: my shirt, blanket, bib, hands...whatever you can get into your mouth!

* You have also really noticed that you have feet! You are always holding them and looking at them when you are laying on your back they are always up in the air in your hands!

* You still like your swing and usually take your afternoon nap in the swing. You also like your jumper and play mat and your mobile in your bed. You also really love your new green dog that sings that Aunt Kim and Robin got for you. You just smile so big when the music plays!!

* You got your first hair cut this month. Makes me a little sad b/c you look like such a big boy now with your hair cut! But, your hair was so long and out of control we had to cut it! You look so cute when we spike it up like Daddy's!

* You have moved up to a size 3 diaper! I am sad about that too b/c they smaller sizes are so cute and little and called little snugglers and these are so big and called little movers! =(

* You are starting to fit into size 6 month clothes.

* I am not sure how much you weigh but I am guessing around 16 pounds! You love to eat!

* You went to your 4 month check up on the 25th and you weigh 17 pounds...even bigger than I thought!!!! You are in the 80th percentile.

* You still eat 5 ounces every 3 hours during the day. We have also started adding rice cereal to your bottles in hopes that it will help with the spitting up!

* You still spit up a lot. That is why you always have a bib covering up your cute outfits!

* You drool alot!

* You eat your last bottle around 10pm and go to sleep right after that. I lay you down in your bassinet, in our room still and you go right to sleep. You usually wake up around 3 or 4 and I have to hold you on my chest or lay you in bed with us. I know I have definitely spoiled you, but I don't mind. You sleep until about 6 or 630 and have your next bottle then!

* You talk and smile and coo and laugh all the time!

* The only time you really get fussy is if you are hungry or tired. Sometimes you just want to be left alone and put down too!

* Your legs are so chubby they get stuck in your bumbo chair and I have to push them down in there to make them fit!

* You do not take your prevacid anymore! Yay!!

* You are the sweetest and greatest little boy ever!!!!

I love you soooooo much Brody!!! Happy Four months!!!
