Happy 4 Months Old

Ok, so I know this post is a few days late (sorry Kolton).  But none the less, I wanted to post a few things about my big guy turning the big 4 Months Old!

Kolton:  You are now 4 Months Old and Such a Happy Guy!  You are a chatter-box. I LOVE it.  I'm sure later on that will come back to me, but for now I am enjoying it. As it tells me you are eager to learn!  You wake up talking away and several times have woken your Daddy and Kyler up from all of your talking.  We can say "hi" with a high pitch and you will match it and it sounds like you're saying "hi" back.  But I'm sure as much as I'd love to believe you're a genius and talking at 4 months, that it's just a fluke. When you cry (which is very rare), but it sounds like you say "Mom- Ma". And no, it's not just me "hearing" it as other people have also heard it ~ even people we don't know have made the comment.

















You weigh 14lbs 14.5 oz and are wearing 3-6 month clothing..yes you are going to be my football player.  The 6 month footed onesies for sleeping in are too short for your long legs and arms. I guess I should bring out the 9 months to see if they will fit you length wise. 

You are cutting 4 teeth:  two top, two bottom. And other than your fingers in your mouth and drooling, I wouldn't know as you're not cranky with it. You do like to chew which is a little hard for me..especially since I am still nursing you.. so cut that out, OK  ;-D.  You like to suck on your index and middle finger together. You prefer them over a pacifier any day!

You're getting fuzzy wuzzy hair and I love it!  It's so soft and I love kissing your head.  You LOVE bath time and cry when it's over with.  You love your bouncy chair and kick your left leg to get it to bounce. I'm waiting on you to catapult  your way out of it.  You're not sure of your jumparoo. You like to play in it for a little bit but then you want out.  You LOVE watching cartoons with Kyler. I'm not sure who enjoys them more.

Brothers..wearing the "big brother / little brother" matching shirts:

Play time with big brother:

Big brother toted little brother all over Grandma's house in the dump truck. Did a mommy's heart good to see my boys playing. Kolton's finally getting to be able to interact with Kyler and he LOVES it (so do I):

We scored some tickets to the Miracles baseball game and since Kyler has been really into wanting to learn to play, we decided to take him.  But I'm not sure if by the look on his face if he liked it or not?! HA!

A few of us loaded up this past Saturday and set out to enjoy a Sunset Cruise on Charlotte Harbor.  This was Kolton's first boat ride and look at the amazing view we had..Kolton on the other hand was out..snoring!:

Special bonding brudder snuggle time!:

I LOVE that every morning this is how Kolton wakes up:

We had Kolton's 4 month check up scheduled for Monday. However he developed Thrush (poor guy ~ due to the Zpack I was on from our cold) and so I ended up taking him into the Dr a little early.  We learned that Mr. Kolton also had a nasty impacted ear infection..due to the cold we both just had. He is such a good baby and never fused so I never knew he had a bad ear. Poor guy, but thankfully he developed thrush so we found.  Anyways, his 4 month well check up is post-poned until his infections are clear.  In the mean time, our little hungry boy has been starring at every bite that goes into our mouths. In fact just last night he was watching my food with eyes bigger than saucers and would not take his eyes off every swirl, up, down, spin around motion that I did with my food.  It was funny.  But he's been showing signs of needing more than just milk.

We were at a friends house and she had cut up an apple for Kyler and you were eyeballing that apple something fierce. So I gave you her to hold and took a slice as I wanted to see what you would do with it:

You. Loved. It!  You weren't so happy when I took it away after a few minutes:
So on the way home, I stopped and got you some Rice Cereal. Here's what you thought about that! Yes, that would be a smile on his face...like he knows what's coming to him:

First bite going in:

Yummmm..and yes another smile!:

Isn't this just gobble up adorable?!:

Face deep in Rice Cereal..Give.Me.MORE!

Schoookums:

Spiderman being silly:


















Handsome big smile:

  2. Hey Jenn.. Tell me about it. He is REFUSING to listen to me tell him he is NOT allowed to grow up! HAHAHAHA. Thank you, Kolton is a spiting image of Kyler when he was his age. We have several pictures that were they are very similar in pose and it's hard to tell them apart. I hope everything is going ok for you all.
