4 Months Old!

Guess who turned 4 months old this week!
Dominic!
It's hard to believe that you were born 4 months ago!
I still feel like you were just this tiny little 8lb 7oz 21in long baby, being held in my arms.

You are weighing in at 17 lbs (only 10% of babies your age weigh this much-but thats ok because both mommy and daddy were CHUNKY MONKEYS just like you!), you are 25in long (mommy is 5'7 and daddy is 5'10, grandpa williams was 6 ft something so there are tall men in the family).

Your 4 month old breakdown:

 Your favorite foods are your bottle (gentlease and nutramigeion formulas)


You only hold the bottle up by yourself for a few seconds but it still makes us super proud!

You also love to (attempt) to feed yourself apple rice cereal from a bowl (with mommas help of course!)


Your favorite toy (which I actually just bought you) is the Oball with shakers in it:


.....you basically like to eat everything, test it, put it in your mouth. 
This is how mommy usually checks to see if you're hungry.....but no more pacis! 
You hate them and refuse to suck on them! 
Which I guess is nice since mommy had to get braces (which I blame on my paci) and we dont want you to have to get them as well!

This is your average day to day schedule:
(although due to your doctors appointment it now is completely off!)


You are such a happy little boy who loves to play in your excersaucer and loves to jump up and down in your kick and play (best investment mommy has ever gotten!).


You will shortly be moving into size 2 diapers, but size two isnt too snug yet!  and you love to take nice warm baths with your johnson and johnson sleepytime bath bubbles and finding nemo toys! - afterwards you freak out because mommy wants to put lotion on your little body but you dont like the touch!!!



Christmas (your 3 month mark) went really well! But you were extremely exhausted by the end of the weeks events it took you a whole nother week to get back into your routine and gosh was it not fun for mommy and daddy! 

You loved your new toys, books, and clothes and even did really well with sitting on santas lap!




You had no clue as to who he was and im just so glad you didnt try to pull on his beard like you pull on mommies hair!!! :)


and just to let you know you had to be changed 5 times on christmas day because you REFUSED to stay clean!!!!----that has to be a record somewhere!


Cici did good when she bought you this toy! Mirrors and music!? You cant stop taking your eyes off of yourself and you get so mad now when you try to touch the "baby in the mirror" you still havent figured out that the cute baby is you!




Your new baby einsteins toy plays music and lights up and when it starts to play you go crazy!!! :)

 This month we even took you to the Strong National Museum of Play!
Even if you are only 4 months old you still had tons of fun with mommy and daddy!





You loved looking at the fish! You must have thought they looked like nemo and his friends! :)
 






It was a great day and you loved it so much that you didnt want to nap at all! 

We are so lucky to have such a great little boy like you! And it is such a joy to see you learning new things everyday! 
I still can't even believe that it is 4 months already!!!!

it's going by too fast!
(can we just freeze this time a bit longer?)
