4 Month Stats, before I forget!

My little Chunk 'O Love is doing just great! He is growing so fast, it's crazy! I keep telling him to slow down, but he's just not listening to me! He is finally pretty much over his respiratory crud. He went in last Friday for his 4 month check-up. He got one shot, the DTaP, and he did great with it. He didn't run fever this time! Yeah! So here are his stats:

Weight: 16 lb. 12 oz. (WOW!)
Length: 26"

One thing he has really started doing the past couple of weeks is chew on his thumbs. He often tries to put his whole fist in his mouth, but he very successfully gets that thumb in his mouth and gnaws away. I am wondering if he is teething, because he really doesn't suck it. Yesterday he had both thumbs in there; it was so cute!

Visual Evidence:

Just Because

I can! Oh, and they are so stinkin' cute!






Isn't he handsome?

Circus!

We had a great time at the circus, as usual. This was our third year to go, and it was a great show. Last year's show was a little disappointing, without Bello, but he was back this year, and as crazy as ever. I really can't believe some of the things they do. We did miss the motorcycles riding around in the circular cage this year. We love the tigers, the balancing (or hanging, I should say) on the extremely tall pole, and the running around thingy. I didn't get to get many pictures, because I had a baby strapped to me all night. Jax was fussy at first, and I thought I had made a mistake taking him, but finally I got him to sleep, and he slept the whole time! Here are a few pics that I got. When I get the other cute one's from Christine, I'll post those too.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY CHRISTINE!!!!

Happy Happy Birthday to you! I hope you have an awesome day!



Oh, and in case you forgot, I'm 2 weeks younger than you! :-)

I have a 4 month old!

Already... *cry*. Everyday with this sweet precious boy brings us more and more joy. We are so lucky to have him!

OK, so he is back sleeping in our room. It was just too hard on Mama getting up a few times a night to take care of him. His room is all the wayacross the house, you know! So, he's back in the bassinet, and often in my bed. Usually by the early morning (3am) feeding, I am so tired, I just put him next to me to feed him, and we both fall asleep. I love having him cuddled up next to me, and I'm pretty sure he likes it too!

Anyway, here are a few pictures I just took to remember this sweet little 4 month old face.
