12/15/16 - 4 months old
Today I am 4 months old! (Actually yesterday - oops!) I weigh 15 lbs 6 oz and am 25.98" long. The doctor thinks I am going to be really tall! Clothes : 3-6 months (but some don't fit anymore) and 6 months. Likes : eating, taking baths, tummy time, standing up in laps, up on a shoulder looking around, laughing and smiling a lot, playing airplane with sissy. Dislikes : waiting too long to eat, having my clothes changed, laying flat on my back and dirty diapers. I have been developing and changing so much over the past month! I can now roll over from my side to my tummy and I think it's just hilarious! I have started holding toys in my hands and putting them up to my mouth. My eyes get super wide and excited every time Mama hands me a toy. I am starting to realize that my hands are going to be cool things to use! I have holding my head up mastered and I'm now working on sitting up. I am starting to get really good at it with just a little support. I imagine I will have it down in no time! I really focus on things now and follow people when they walk into a room. I'm also starting to look interested when I see sissy and my mom eat. The doctor said we can start introducing cereals and stage 1 & 2 baby foods into my diet! I think we might try something this weekend and see how it goes. If we do, I'm sure Mama will take a video and upload it for y'all. I have something called Anisocoria. It's where one of my pupils is a little bigger than the other. The doctor thinks it is ok and nothing to worry about but we have an apt with the eye doctor on Monday just to make sure. They've been like that since I was born and I don't show any signs that indicate any other issues. I digressed for about 2 weeks on my good nighttime sleep schedule...I drove Mom crazy waking up in the middle of the night again, but for the past week I have been back to my normal going to bed at 9pm and waking up about 6am. Still not a big napper...probably never will be, but that's ok. I think I am starting to get a tooth soon. I chew on my hands alllll the time and drool a lot. Mama says she feels a hard spot in my mouth where a tooth might be getting ready to come through.
I am just getting over the second cold of my life. Let me tell you, I am not a fan of the Nose Frida and nasal aspirator. I turn my head and get angry every time I see it coming. I also got Mama sick. Oops! I am still a very happy baby and Mama says my smile and laugh just light up her world. I coo and try and talk all the time. I still spit up a bit, but it has gotten better with adding the rice cereal into my bottles. Hopefully I will be outgrowing it soon. I can't wait to experience my first Christmas in a week!

Today I am 3 months old! I weigh 14 lbs and am approximately 26" long. Clothes : 3-6 months. Likes : eating and taking baths are my favorite things ever! Did I mentioned I like eating? Mama calls me her little chunka now. We've introduced a little rice cereal because I spit up so much. The doctor says I'm a happy spitter-upper, so hopefully I will grow out of it soon. But adding the ...rice cereal has helped a lot and I don't spit up as much. I am trying like the dickens to talk!! I have conversations with people all the time and I smile a lot! I get the biggest smile and giggle when I see my sister. She's my favorite person ever! I like my in-home daycare. I've been going for almost a month. Mama misses me like crazy during the day, but getting back to work has been good for her...it just makes the evenings and weekends that much more fun for us. Nana says I'm just like how my mom was when she was a baby - I still don't sleep much during the day and I love to be up on a shoulder or facing out while someone is holding me so I can take everything in. I'm super curious and always wide-eyed. I've recently started looking at my hands a lot now...I'm starting to realize these things might be able to do a lot of fun stuff, like grab things! I also like eating my hands now. I like hanging out in my lounger, but I also love to be held. I am still sleeping good at night for Mama. I go to sleep about 9pm, sometimes wake up around 3-4 am for a feeding, then back to sleep until around 7. Sometimes I sleep from 9pm all the way though 6am when I'm really sleepy. I am practicing tummy time a lot and sitting up. I pretty much have holding my head up mastered with just the occasional head bob :) I also like to push myself off with my feet and bounce around. I have super strong legs! Dislikes - having my clothes changed, sitting in a dirty diaper for too long and waiting too long to eat. My hair is getting lighter and a lot of it has fallen out especially in the back, but the new hair is starting to grow in already. My eyes are really dark, but are grayish-blue, so we're still waiting to see what color my eyes will turn out to be. I am a happy baby :)
10/15/16 - 2 months old
I weigh 12 lbs 1.5 ozs and I'm already 24" long! Clothes : 0-3 months, but growing out of them quickly. About to move up to 3-6 months because I am so long! Likes : eating, smiling, trying to talk, hanging out on a shoulder looking around, taking baths and being worn by Mama in my wraps. Dislikes : being hungry (waiting t...o eat), having my clothes changed and being in my car seat for too long. I've been sleeping really well at night for Mama! My bed time is usually between 9-10pm and I wake up between 3-4am for a feeding, then back to sleep until around 7am. I don't sleep much during the day but Mom says that's ok because I sleep so well at night. I started daycare on 10/17 because Mama had to go back to work. :( I am a pretty chill baby...not fussy at all except when I'm hungry or have been hanging out for too long in my lounger and want to be held. My face lights up immediately whenever my sissy (Skyler) is around.
