4 Months

Oh my goodness do I really have a 4 month old? I can't believe how big my sweet boy is getting. We haven't had his 4 month check up yet. Due to all the bad weather here it was cancelled. So I don't know weight and height. But here are some other things new this month.

- You laugh all the time
- You talk all the time
- You constantly have your hands in your mouth
- Your eyes have stayed blue
- You kick your legs like crazy
- You eat rice cereal for lunch by spoon and then have it in your bottle at night before bed
- You sleep through the night (this is mommies favorite one!)
- You take regular morning and afternoon naps
- You can grab and hold onto your toys
- You are wearing mostly 6 month stuff, but some 9 month stuff

Manny and I are really enjoying all the fun changes that come with each month. This month in particular has been fun. James is so much fun the more and more active he gets. He has the sweetest little smile. Everyone always says he looks like such a kind little boy. I can't wait to see what month 5 brings to us. I fall more in love with this little boy every day and am so grateful to be his Mama.

Christmas Time

Ok...so one of my New Year's resolutions is to be a better blogger. That being said I need to catch up from the holidays. This post will just be filled with lots of pictures of all the fun that we had over the holidays. They include: making cookies at Mimi's house, Christmas Day and NYE trip to the Mountains with good friends, plus a few extras of my cutie! ENJOY! Can't believe my little man is going to be 4 months old on Sunday! Time flies when you are having fun!

3 Months

Our little guy turned 3 months old on December 9th! So crazy how fast the time has flown by. He is growing so fast. Some days I want to hit the pause button. But most days I am just enjoying how each day brings something new. A new noise, a new look, new tricks, etc.


Here's some new happenings this month:
-You smile all the time
-You are getting better at Tummy time
-You have gained a ton of weight (we didn't have a wellness appointment this month but mommy can tell you are heavier)
-You coo all the time
-You kick your legs all the time
-So far your eyes have stayed blue
-You now take two schedule naps a day...1 hour in the morning and 2 hours in the afternoon (mommy LOVES this)
-We just started you on rice cereal...hoping this will push you to sleep through the night! :)

Can't wait to see what month 4 brings us!

Happy Thanksgiving

Sorry for my lack of blogging lately. We were in between computers, but now we are back in business. Hope you all had a wonderful Thanksgiving. We sure did. Manny's family came into town to celebrate with us. It was the first time for his Dad and Sister to meet James. Which made the trip all the more special! Here are a few pictures for our week.

October Happenings

Not much to report on so I thought I would just share some pictures. October was a fun month for us filled with Jamesy's first Halloween, Playgroup and his future wife, Sydney's 1st birthday party! Enjoy the pics! Another post this week will be completely dedicated to my 2 month old! (turns 2 months on Tuesday! Ah)

Cute...huh?

Of course Jamesy is cute, but how cute is that pillow? A good friend of ours had it made for him by a woman at her fabulous store! We LOVE it! It goes with James' room perfectly! Thanks Sandy!
