4 Months!

Time continues to fly by (very, very quickly). Our little boy is now four months old and growing bigger each day!

  • He now weighs 14 pounds and 11 ounces (31% tile) and is 25 inches long (55% tile). His head is giant (90% tile), Preston claims it's because he has such a big brain!
  • Although he can flip from his stomach to his back, he has decided it's not that cool and is much more fun for mommy and daddy to flip him over. 
  • He just started rolling from his back to his side - almost all the way over! 
  • He has found his voice and has realized that the only way to be heard over his sister is to be VERY loud. He just kind of screams and giggles and then screams again (over and over and over again!). 
  • Cars are not his favorite thing and likes to voice his displeasure often. 
  • By far, his sister is his favorite person in the entire world! He can instantly go from crying to laughing in about 1 second when he sees his sister. He will constantly stop whatever he is doing and will track her across the room. 
  • He is smiley, smiley, and giggly! (I love it!)
  • He can reach and grab toys and put them in his mouth. He will often try to shove more than one thing in his mouth at a time. 
  • He sleeps through the night on most nights (fabulous) but will still only nap about 40-45 minutes at a time. 
This is where he gets stuck (from his back to his front) - should be soon now.....

I love this little boy!

 
Hmm...which is better.....pacifier or giraffe?! I'll go with both!

Rolling and Reading

Callie rolls ALL over the place!!! One of her favorite places to end up is her bookshelf. Look what I found! As a side note, it looks like one of our cats is finally accepting that Callie is part of the family (or atleast, she isn't going anywhere) and has become very tolerant of her. She lets Callie "pet" her and will even walk up to Callie (which, if you know this cat, is VERY unusual - there are some people who still have never seen her). The other day when I was getting Callie from her nap this was outside her door. Apparently the cat loves Callie enough to bring her toys.

Another Plane Ride

So, Callie and I spent my spring break in Pennsylvania. It was a wonderful trip and Callie just LOVED being spoiled by all her aunts and uncles, cousins, and grandmas! (she was a bit in shock when we came back home and she was stuck with just mom and dad - she also took a two hour nap the day we got back, which she has never, never (and probably never will again) done, traveling sure is exhausting!). I was a bit nervous about the very long plane ride, but besides not eating at all, Callie did fabulous! Although, she never really did understand why she couldn't grab the people sitting next to us or in front of us. Even though she got sick on the way back, she was still a wonderful traveler. She loved sitting with Grandma and looking out the plane window (yuck!). We met Grandma in Chicago - at that point in time both Grandma and Callie needed a snuggle, so they spent part of our layover cuddling up in the airport. (sorry, I took these with my cell phone) Looking out the ...

Complete and Total Exhaustion

So, Callie has come down with a case of croup (good ol'daycare) and we had a VERY rough night on Sunday. She was up every 20 mins - hour coughing. Luckily Preston was home and we took turns with her - eventually I ended up sleeping with her in the chair (although she still woke up coughing every hour) because I didn't have to work on Monday. Needless to say, we were not a very exciting family Monday night. We were all in bed by 8 and Callie continued to get up a bit but not nearly as much as the night before. The last time I went in to see her was about 11 - the next thing I knew it was time for me to get up for work. When Preston got up, I made the comment "she slept better than on Sunday" and he just looked at me and laughed. Apparently, she got up a bunch in the middle in the night and I was just too exhausted to realize it. He said I was so out of it that one time I told him it was the rain, not Callie crying.....I'm going to choose my version of the story and...
