4 Months

Well another month has come and gone. Brooks is 4 months old! 


This month has been SO much fun. Brooks has really developed such a cute personality and continues to be such a joy. His little face is so expressive, whether it be happy or sad. He is so funny to watch. 

This month he has mastered the roll over. He can roll from back to tummy, tummy to back. You lay him down to play on his play mat and he is almost instantaneously on his tummy. He is not to be trusted on any surface other than the floor as he is all over the place. 

This month he is SLEEPING THROUGH THE NIGHT! This has been the greatest blessing for all of us. It is amazing how much better sleep can make you feel! 

Brooks' hands have become his fascination this month. He discovered them and they are his FAVORITE toy. He loves to suck on his index and middle finger at the same time. It was so funny when he first discovered he could do this. He would stick ALL his fingers into his mouth, and way too far back so he would accidentally choke himself a little. I had to pull his hands out of his mouth several times before he got the hang of it. 

Blankets continue to be his favorite toys. Give that boy his hands and his blanket and he's a happy baby. He also really likes his Sophie the giraffe, Benecio the monkey, and puppy. He is really loving TV lately which means I'm going to be in some serious trouble when he gets older. If you want him to pay attention to you, you have to turn the TV off first, haha, uh oh. 

Poor baby got his first cold this month and it was rough on him and mommy. I actually got a cold at the same time so it was pretty much torture. Luckily my mom came in town so she took care of us. 

It has been a great month for Brooks and I just adore him.






This is mid gagging himself...
