| 4 Month Old |
He isn't as in love with his binki, but still takes it much better than the other 3. He needs it at night when we are trying to put him to sleep.
He is still sleeping in our room. I have fears of him and Parley sharing. One or the other will wake the other up. Besides soon the big 2 will move downstairs to their new room (hopefully in a month) and then the two little boys can have their own rooms!! YEA!
He is spoiled rotten and loves his mommy. Im a sucker for him too. I let him sleep and nurse during the night, which I know without a doubt is why he isn't sleeping through the night anymore. He was before Christmas, then I got tired and sick of getting up with him so I put him in bed with me and nurse him while I sleep on. Neither of us get great sleep, and now he loves to be snuggled up close at night. Bad habit I started that needs to stop soon.
He is generally a happy guy, but when he gets mad lately oh my goodness watch out. He screams and screams and screams till I A) nurse him B)snuggle him up in his big blanket snug as a bug with a binky and he will eventually give in.
He is humongous. Really. HUGE. He is in 6-9 month clothes, but also fits 12 month clothes too. I just pulled 12 month clothes out of Parleys dresser to put into Blakes. Bad part is Parely still fits in 12 month jeans and Blake isn't far behind. Parley better hurry up and grow or he will be sharing clothes with his little brother soon. I fear summer will come and both will be in 18 month clothes together. (better on the laundry piles though)
I havnt started rice cereal yet...he is big enough on my milk....but I also have to nurse him so much to keep up with his needs that im going to be soon enough giving him cereal.
He can roll with assistance from his back to his belly. He gets far on his side and just needs help to finish it...usuially he is turing to find the TV and then stops cause he can see it. Seriuos. He has rolled from his belly to back a couple times but I think it was an accident, not intentional. He is so big its a lot of mass to move around. :)
He likes to swing, he likes his jumper, he is uncomfortable in the bumbo cause he is so big. He loves the bouncer chair though.
He wants to sit up so badly. He pulls those abs in tight when I try and lay him down if he wants to stay sitting. I sat him up and he lasted a couple seconds all by himself. He got too excited and flopped himself forward.
He giggles. He smiles. for anyone.
He loves playing patty cake and ram sam sam. He loves momma little baby loves shortenbread.
Pretty much just likes to clap and sing with mom.
He is a traveling champion like his 3 older siblings. Just sleeps the whole time. He is almost grown out of his carseat.
He likes his bathtime, but not with his all siblings. They get a little loud and crazy for him. When its just him and Brookie or him an Kyler he lets them hold him and he is all relaxed and loves it. Good bonding time with them. Parley on the other hand never will bathe with him again...he dumps water all over his head.
THis kid is a future couch potato. He is constantly trying to turn himself to watch tv or Ipads. Strange critter.
Parley and Blake must have been special buddys in heaven. Parley is so active hyper and crazy, but Blake stares at him and smiles at him and lets him hold him all the time. He holds his hands when every Parley holds him. I can just tell its a different bond than with the older two kids. Whom he loves and he lets them take care of him. In fact he let her totally undress him, and put on a new diaper and clothes today. That's a patient 4 month old to put up with that much of a 3 year old!
I love this guy to death. He is my perfect surprise baby. Content. Happy. chubby wonderful to snuggle. I cover his droopy fat cheeks all day long in kisses. Love you Blakey Blue Eyes!
