Cole at 4 months

Cole is 4 months old as of earlier this week! Wow, the time has flown. I love this age that he's at right now so much.... smiles, giggles, lots of love, sleeping good, not yet mobile, and little sparks of his personality coming through. So fun. 

He continues to be such a good, easy going baby. He's truly happy in all circumstances. He giggles on command, smiles at everyone all the time, and makes everyone fall in love with his dimples. He loves to lay and kick on the floor, and is enjoying tummy time more and more. He's able to roll both ways, but mostly is just happy to lay on his back. He's grabbing toys now and putting them to his mouth. Also, his hands.... he's found them and loves them! He occasionally sucks his thumb, but is mostly a paci baby. He LOVES to look in the mirror at himself, and looking at other babies in general, in person or at pictures. We've also had some nice weather lately, and he's really enjoyed being outside in the stroller, on a blanket, or just being held and watching the entertainment of all the big kids at the park.

He has made the transition to sleeping in his room now, so we've got a full house upstairs at night time! Sometimes it's hard for me to believe that we've filled every bedroom up with perfect and precious kiddos.

I took him to his 4 month well check yesterday where he got a straight-A report card from Dr. Nail. He weighs 13 lbs, 15oz and is 25 1/3 inches long. Coincidentally, I looked at Carter's 4 month stats, and both boys weighed exactly the same at 4 months. Carter was just a tad longer than Cole, and Ella was 14 lbs, even, but almost 2 inches shorter. So interesting!

Here is my chunky, happy boy in the doctor's office.

 That smile and those chubby legs!!

 Cole did have to get 2 shots. This is shot aftermath. Snuggles with a tired/achy/pitiful baby boy. 

(awwww, the baby band-aid on his thigh!)

Happy 4 months, big boy! We continue to be grateful for you, your sweet disposition, and most importantly, your good health! You are a blessing!!
