4 months

I know I say this all the time but I cannot believe how fast time is going by. I feel extremly lucky to be able to stay at home right now with Cooper and watch his every move. I feel like in the past two weeks he has changed so much. He is def. showing more of his personality more and his likes and dislikes.
  • He is "chatting" more to us all the time especially after a feeding, in the bathtub or when he is getting his diaper changed. I catch him even when we put him down for bedtime chatting away to himself. It is the most precious sound. If he is my child I know he is only going to get more talkative
  • He loves playing with his feet. He hasnt started to put them in his mouth but he is always grabbing them when he is laying down.
  • He wants to put everything in his mouth. From his hands, to our fingers, his toys and he is using both his hands to grasp onto things.

These are just a few of the most recent things we have been enjoying watching cooper do. He is also recognizing people and voices and his eyes follow us everywhere.

We also has his 4 month check up and he is growing. I was nervous at first when they told me he only weighed 14 lbs because in the past he was gaining weight much faster, but the doctor told me that because he is so active (kicking his legs all the time) that he is 100% healthy. He also grew some inches and now is 24 3/4" long.

What a joy to be able to see this little baby turn into a fun exciting little man.

I have pictures to put up soon!!!
