Month 4 - Wells

Month 4: Baby!

Age: 4 months

Weight: 16.5 lbs-ish

Major calendar events: Chris and Carrie's wedding, 4th of July, first trip to the pool, weeklong trip to New Jersey without Daddy (future post on this trip coming soon)

Milestones: Smiling and giggling more, using his hands to (kind of) reach out and grab things, rolled over three times (different days - when no one was looking! I think he secretly waits until no one is looking though because I have yet to capture a picture or video of this actually happening!)

Sleep: Sleeping through the night woo woo!!!! He is still swaddled and on his back and can usually go from roughly 8:00 p.m. - 7:00 a.m. (give or take)

Likes: Seeing his mommy,

Dislikes: None

Best moment: Winning the "chillest baby award" while in New Jersey (he was later promoted to "baby of the year")

Worst moment: While in NJ, Wells spent a good amount of time riding in a double stroller. One day we were on a walk and I heard him crying. I was quite a ways up, pushing Heidi in a single stroller and decided to go back and check on him to see why he was crying. I'm SO glad I did that right when I first started to hear him cry (instead of brushing it off and just assuming he was tired or hot or hungry or something) because I had apparently forgotten to buckle him in and he had slid down off of the back seat and into the basket below the front seat of the stroller!! I was panicking! Luckily, one of the other adults on the walk was able to pull him out because I could not figure out how to get him out fast enough. Once I was holding him he was fine and luckily not hurt in any way. Poor guy!!

Eating: 100% breastfed, every 3 hours

Things I want to remember: He is such a good and sweet little baby!
