It's ONLY been 3 months. :)

Yes it's been 3 months since my last post, and boy have things changed! Now....
- up to 20 lb 7 oz
- rolling EVERYWHERE and into everything(mostly things you aren't supposed to have, newspapers, cords, under chairs, you get the idea)!!!
-TRYING to crawl
-clapping hands
-laughing at everything!
-Huge mommys boy
- SCREAMING loud when mad/anytime really.
-Loves the exersaucer
-avocados are still the favorite although I haven't seen a food you don't like! Pickles are also a favorite.
- ALMOST has a toother!!
- I have a big car seat waiting but am really having a hard time actually putting it in my car...just another step closer to a BIG boy :(
-Sleeps with feet/arms sticking out of the crib..so the bumpers are ON! lol you were getting angry when you got stuck.
- Currently have a rash EVERYWHERE...you have caught every sickness around...poor peanut!
- you had tubes put in your ears on may 2nd (worst day of my life) It was the hardest thing I've had to do...the surgery literally took 6 minutes at the most and was very quick but it was miserable. You did awesome...mommy not so much. You couldn't eat from midnight till after the surgery which was at 7:30 am....so I had a long night trying to distract you...we watched TV, we played in the floor at 2 am, we watched the fish in the fish tank, we talked to grammy and grampy in the middle of the night, we played with the cat, anything to make you forget you wanted a bottle. after we got done we took a nice long nap!!

- you get very excited to see mommy and daddy. you have started to play strange with others.
- you usually lay right down for bed, take a bottle (6oz usually) but you go to sleep on your own which Mommy and Grammy are very proud of! You are on a pretty consistent schedule now days, bed by 8:00, up once sometimes twice at night midnight/4:00am, and up by about 7, two naps a day, one in the morning and one in the afternoon, you dont get to far off that unless were out and about...then you get crabby!! :)
- still drilling the word MAMAMAMAMA in your head...you laugh...in my face... :)

- everything you do is exciting to mommy, (heres my mushy moment) I don't know where I'd be with out my little monkey, you are my big boy already, and such a mommy's boy, my heart melts every time I look at you still, you've been around 7 months and it seems like forever, but I still just cant believe how fast the time has gone!

OK So heres lots of pictures since its been a while :)

some are out of order but there very hard to position on this thing!

4 Months old

At 4 months old you are:

- Weighing in at 15lbs 14 oz.

- Eating cereal/food at breakfast and supper (and LOVING it)

- Avocados and apple sauce are your two favorite foods, you have also tried pears, sweet peas, and sweet potatoes, there okay but the others are your absolute favorite.

- You had a slice f banana in the mesh chewy thing and you loved that you got VERY angry when I took it from you, so naturally we gave it back. :)

- Eating about 5oz at one time

- You are more patient in between bottles if you don't eat right at 3 hrs you aren't as upset as before.

- You love to stand up and now daddy thinks you need to learn to walk......

- You've played in the exersaucer and the jumper a few times, you weren't a huge fan, i think there is still too much going on for you to enjoy it, but I know that it won't be long!

- You can very easily roll from your belly to your back, and I think if yo liked to be on your belly you would go from your back to belly but you don't enjoy being on your tummy very much so you choose not to!

- You love your bath time now, we have left the baby tub and moved in to the big tub and you love that.

- We have visited the doctors office too many times to count the past couple weeks, you've been on a nebulizer, and antibiotics, and are finally getting over the stuffy nose and your cough is completely gone, before getting sick you were in a pretty good schedule at nap time and night time, and then of course you didn't feel well so that was interrupted a little but now were back to normal.

- You have completely out grown your bassinet, and are now sleeping in the crib all the time, it was a tough choice for mommy, just another sign your getting bigger :( But you seem to like the big bed much more.

- You are so much fun to hang out with now, uncle Seth would agree with me there. He spends lots of time with you now.

- You no longer 'talk' you SCREAM, and we love it.

- You laugh and yell at everything, your favorite things are the ceiling fan and the mobile and the toy you lay under that lights up and makes noise.

- You love to be talked to, Daddy gets you very excited, and Mommy just wants to snuggle.

- You also love to snuggle with mommy, well mommy loves when you snuggle with her.

- You get compliments daily on your big beautiful eyes, and eyelashes.

- We took a trip to Cedar Falls this weekend for pictures and to see mommy's friends, who of course all couldn't get enough of you, it was our first trip (other than Tennessee) over night.

- You are most defiantly the best, I think that all of us agree on that!

And here are some pictures!!! We had 4 month pictures done on Saturday, so those will be posted soon...I do have a sneak peak, which are the first 3 pictures!
