Three Months Old

I don't know where the time goes...it seems like forever since I've blogged and I seem to have so much to blog about lately, so I first have to start with Cooper, he's the center of attention lately and he's just loving it.

On July 18th, Cooper turned 4 months!


A few things I want to remember about your 4th month of life are:
  • You are still wearing size 1 diapers. I think I may have purchased my last package though, you are starting to fill them out so we'll have to move you up to size 2.
  • You have totally out grew your 0 to 3 clothes, and are just about bursting out of the 3 to 6 months! I think I have maybe another month out of those.
  • As of the 19th of July you weighed 14 pounds 7.5 ounces and you were 25 1/2 inches long! 
  • You are still exclusively breastfed! This is going great and you LOVE to eat and when you are done you look up at me with a big ole smile that just melts my heart.
  • You are still sleeping in our room. I keep thinking about putting you in your crib in your room, I know you'll do great but it makes me sad thinking about it, so for now I'm keeping you with me. 
  • You sleep all night long! (I hope I don't jinx it by saying that) but you are a great sleeper.
  • Bed time is still around 8 to 8:30. 
  • You are starting to enjoy bath time a little more each time. I'm finally getting more smiles out of you. You get a bath about every other day.
  • You have found your toes! I love it, you will play on the floor for hours and just grab your toes and roll side to side. Soon you'll be rolling. Lord help me! LOL
  • You had your first "vacation" you traveled will mommy and Grandma the week before your 4 month birthday. You did awesome. You like to be in the car but anything over 4 hours and you were getting crabby. Heck I get crabby too.

  • You love to grab things and finally figured out how..your hands are always moving even when you're tired. When you stop moving your hands is when I know you've fallen asleep.
  • You smile every time someone looks at you and talks to you. I've finally started to hear that giggle that I just love to hear. I will tickle you under your chin, around your collar bone, and you just burst out laughing.


  • Daddy loves you to death and he sure missed you while you were gone with Mommy. 
  • You love your changing table, this is one place where we can go to get some giggles out of you. You love it when mommy sings to you. We like "you are my sunshine" you always smile and try to sing along.
  • You also love your playmat, you love kicking the piano and playing with all the toys around it. You're starting to squirm so much that you do a complete 360 turn. Soon you'll be rolling!
  • The bumbo...you're not to sure of this yet. Once you can sit up on your own I think you'll love it.
Cooper I can't say enough how much joy you bring into my life. I love you so much and I can't wait to see what the next month has in store for us. I'm sure lots and lots!
