4 Months Old Today!

It's like Christmas every morning, waking up to a baby (even when he's crying!) who is all my own. What a joy! Can't believe we've had him for four months already.




Jack is getting so big and each week seems to learn just a little bit more. This week he started pushing off with one foot to roll over. Not quite there yet, but showing signs of it. He constantly wants to "walk" with us holding his hands and loves to sit up in his Bumbo. He "talks" to us all the time and can hold his toys well now.

Eating is still a challenge as he has bad reflux even now and at his 4 month check this week he weighs 12.9 (only the 15 percentile!) and is 26 inches long(the 90th percentile of course). The doc said he was still within normal range for weight but we're not to give him any solids yet as he still doesn't do that well with milk even.

His eyes are still very blue (hooray!) and the bum fluff on his head is light brown. We can make a mohawk in the bath now! Speaking of baths, he LOVES the water, pool or bath, and splashes happily with his feet. He is generally a much happier baby these days.

Thank you Lord for our sweet baby blessing!
