4 months

I turn 4 months old this week! I had my check up yesterday and I am weighing in at 13lbs 2oz and I am 25 1/4 inches long. The doctor says I am making progress at a great rate. I hated those shots the nurse gave me and it made me crabby pretty much the rest of the day. I am eating cereal and veggies now and I love them. Bring on the sippy cup, I am so done being a baby. I have been trying to roll over lately, but to tell you the truth, it is not at the top of my list. I hate being on my stomach, so why would I roll over and end up there. As far as tummy time goes, my mom makes me do it at least once a day, but when I get mad, she rolls me back over. I have been sleeping in my crib for about a week and it is great. I have so much room to move around! I wake up in a totally different place than when I started. I have been sleeping on my tummy because mom says I sleep much longer. I went to bed at 7:30 last night because I was really full from my cereal and sweet potatoes and mom gave me some tylenol. I was well rested and up ready to play at 4:30. Mom however was not ready for that and could not keep her eyes open. I went upstairs and laid in bed with dad and told him all about life for 45 minutes. I talked so much, mom looked over and I was sound asleep. Mom said she thought that was so cute. I am quite the talker these days, I lay on the floor and talk and talk for 20-30 minutes at a time. I guess I am my mother's son. I am also addicted to tv, my father's son in me there. I love SpongeBob and Baby Einstein videos. I also like the watch video's of myself, I think that is the funniest thing!!! Well, I think I am going to help mom water the flowers and then take a dip in the pool! Have a great week!

Update

I know it has been a long time since I have given an update, I am sorry! My mom is officially on Summer break now and she she is loving being home with me. I am sad that I don't get to hang out with Grandma everyday, but mom is second best. Mom says I am so much happier during the day, so she is happy that she gets to spend time with me during the day now. I am sleeping through the night now and everyone around here is very happy. I get up about 5:30, eat, daddy goes to work and mommy and I go back to sleep until 9. My mom told me this is the way she likes to do it in the summer, so I guess I better do what she says. I have been going on lots of walks with mommy and Dallas gets to go sometimes too. We run over his feet with the stroller a lot, but mom says he will learn eventually, so I am going with it. My brother and sister are here for the summer and my brother thinks I am pretty cool. My sister is not so sure, but she talks to me sometimes. My brother brought his Rock Band game and I love sitting downstairs listening to mommy and my brother jam out to AC/DC. My swimming pool has a leak and mommy can't find it. I hope she gets it fixed pretty soon, because not only am I excited to go swimming, but I am sick and tired of listening to her complain about it. I guess she has some kind of addiction to the sun....whatever makes her happy I guess. Mommy is also watching some neighbor kids this summer and the girl Addie helps with me a lot. She has a brother that is just a little older than me, so she knows what to do to make me happy. Mommy is very thankful for her! I have been taking in a lot of little league games and CCA Softball games. Go Clippers! Last night grandma and grandpa even came to the game. It was a close one, but they won in the 7th inning! I love watching all the people and mommy says I better be learning early because she can't wait to watch me some day! Well, I think that is about it for now. I have my 4 month appointment on the 22nd, so I will give more updates then. I hope everyone has a great summer and gets to go out and enjoy the nice weather as much as I do!
