4 Months!


Cooper Wyatt, you are 4 months old today {ok, truth be told, you were 4 months old on Sunday but this week has been so silly busy I'm just now getting around to this.}

You are up to SO much these days!

You blow raspberries, pray with your feet, laugh out loud when Daddy tickles your tummy, sing yourself to sleep at night, tee tee in the bathtub and on Mommy, flip from your tummy to your back and almost from your back to your tummy, play with your wobbly bits in the bath until one of us catches you, take your Binky in and out of your mouth all by your lil ol' self, randomly raise one leg and point your toes, and shrug your shoulders when you are acting silly.

All of a sudden you just LOVE to play!

Our favorite time is that spent on the floor playing with Puppy, shaking your linkadoos, playing peek-a-boo with your pop up toy, reading {and eating} books, and watching Mr. Turtle light up and sing.
You are such a sweet sweet baby!

The nitty gritty: You sleep through the night {9pm til 6am}, drink 5-6 oz. every 3-3.5 hours, wear size 2 diapers and 3-6 month clothes, take about 3 naps per day, and sleep in footie pajamas (no more Swaddle Monster...boo hoo).

You weigh 15 pounds, 5 ounces and are 25 inches long. Dr. Cooper says your little noggin is looking much much better (yay for tummy time!).

Best of all, you got the green light to start working on solid foods today!! And by "solid foods" I mean rice cereal. Go big boy, go!

We are just crazy about you Coopie!

You have the ability to light up a room without even knowing it. My favorite thing to do is to watch you brighten even a stranger's day. Today we got squished in the elevator at Macy's with a group of blue haired little ladies and their nursing home caregiver. As I was admiring the number of wrinkles one elevator could hold, you were busy smiling and cooing at all of the little old ladies. You absolutely MADE their day. I could just see it in their eyes.

We have no doubt that God has big plans for you Baby Blue. We love you to the moon and back!
