The Young and the Restless

Four Months

It's funny because those first several weeks and months just flew by but now I can't even remember what life was like without him, so four months seems like forever ago. We've finally got our groove down, he's in such a great schedule. He's in bed between 7 or 7:30 and wakes up between 6 or 7 to eat then goes back to sleep for an hour or so. When I put him down he's so sweet to just lay there and drift off to sleep on his own. He never cries and sometimes I go in after about 15 or 20 minutes and he's just laying there with his little eyes wide open just blowing bubbles. He takes great naps now and is such a sweetheart. I quit nursing right after he turned 3 months, it was a little sad but my life is much easier now. At his check-up he weighed 15 lbs 3 oz (50%), was 26 1/4 in long (85%) and his head was 16 1/2 cm (45%). He spends most of the day smacking on his little hands and sticking his tongue out, and my lips pretty much spend most of the day attached to his soft chubby cheeks and I can't stop squeezing his squishy little body. It's sort of an obsession of mine and I can't get enough, not even close.
