4 Months Old

Our sweet boy is four months old today!!! I am in awe of this. Time has flown and creeped all at the same time. C has changed so much this month. Each day is a new fun adventure. We will go to the doctor on Monday, so I will have to report back with his stats, but our rough estimates (unofficial weight) has him weighing in over 15 lbs. That's triple the sweet boy's birth weight.

At 4 months...

Cameron you are SOO much fun. Mommy and Daddy have so much fun playing with and loving on you everyday.


You have such a sweet, sweet smile. You have really started laughing more these past few weeks. It is such sweet music to our ears.



You love playing with your hands and really love chewing on them, sometimes to the point of choking yourself. You put everything in your mouth. Toys, burp cloths, bibs, momma's hands. I think you are starting to teethe because you are gnawing on everything and drooling more.

You do VERY well with tummy time and make rolling over look like a piece of cake now (from stomach to back). You have always had really good head control and it just keeps getting better. You are a very observant little fella, always looking around.

You still don't care much for traveling or should I say having to ride in your car seat. This doesn't make our car trips very fun since you do not like to sleep in the car apparently unlike every other baby in the world. I think you don't want to miss anything.

You are sleeping all night in your bed usually from 8:30/9:30 - 6:30/7:30. Some nights (last night) you only got up once at 4:30. This was such a treat for mommy and daddy, but the nights before we were up every two hours. Mommy can't figure out what is different on those nights you sleep well. We have come a long way in the sleep department. I am learning that you need all of your naps everyday or you don't do as well. You are falling asleep a lot easier but still refuse to nap outside of someone's arms. We have tried everything to change this but you are stubborn (you get it honest).

You have really found your toys this month. You love to wear your kicking shoes (that rattle) and play with Carla the singing Caterpillar. Grandma and Poppa sent a fun popper toy that you love to watch. You have played some in your bouncy contraption and thinks its fun. Your most favorite thing to do when playing is kick your legs. Boy can you kick. You are learning to turn your leg to kick mommy and daddy if we are to the side of you. When we lay you on your changing table you practically squeal with delight and kick SOO hard and fast! You are such a sweet boy.



We had your baby dedication this month. You slept through it. Ha!! This was a special time where mommy and daddy dedicated to teach you about God's word and promised to raise you with his guidance. Both sets of grandparents came for this special day and your special adopted grandparents the O'Bannons were with us too.


You love for mommy and daddy to sing to you and will sing back with us or smile with delight. You are a delight to everyone!!


Daddy likes to say you are mommy's little boy and daddy's best friend. We love you so much sweet boy. We pray daily that the Lord would help you grow and learn. We want you to grow to follow after Him and love as you have been loved.
