Miles, You are 4 months old today!
You are still such a sweet, calm and happy baby! You have sweet little toes and baby thighs.
You love to look at your parents. Wherever we are, you always have your eye on us. You have really started holding your head up consistently this month, which makes tummy time a little less terrible, although you still hate it after 5 minutes. You also rolled over this month.
Your hair is turning lighter and getting fuzzy, but you still have brown newborn baby hair bangs that have grown out. I call them toupee bangs!
You smile a lot, especially in the mornings after you wake up.
We are more settled into a routine now. Nanny Peggy comes over in the mornings around 8 and we usually leave for work around 8:15. I don't want to miss more than 2 feedings, so I am home by 3:30 or 4:00 when you wake up from your nap. You get 2 bottles a day on weekdays and you drink about 5 ounces each time.
While we are on the subject of naps, I should say that you are a great sleeper! You have gotten into a good routine in the last week or so. You wake up around 8, take a morning nap for about an hour, then you take a nap from 1:30-4:00, and then another nap for about 45 minutes or an hour about 5:15. You go to bed about 9:00 and usually sleep through the night.
This is your blank stare look you like to give us.
We made the switch to cloth diapers this month, and so far I love them! The prints are really cute. I'll do another cloth diaper post with more details about that. We are still using up the rest of the disposables we bought, so you are a size 3, although you can still fit in size 2 diapers.
These are your 4 month stats:
Weight: 17 lbs, 75th percentile
Length: 25.5 inches, 75th percentile
Head Circumference: 16.5 inches, 75th percentile
You are a very proportionate boy!
You've started sticking your tongue out a lot. You are wearing ducky pjs that were Mattie's in this picture.
Nanny Peggy bought you this toy, plus some keys, but this is by far your favorite! You have started grasping things now. You've entered the stage where everything goes straight to your mouth!
You look too sweet in this picture! These are your weenie dog pirate pjs that we think are hilarious!
We went to dinner tonight at Community Q with Katherine, Mattie, and Lily. I got a picture of you and Mattie, but not Lily again. I need to make sure we get Lily next month! Mattie loves you so much.
This isn't a great picture, but I had to take a picture. You are wearing a mini Boden outfit that has a dachshund on it that I love!
You love to talk, too! You babble away all day.
Miles, you make us so happy! Your daddy and I were talking to you tonight in the car about how life is better with you here!
