Jack is 4 Months Old!

This month has been really fun with Jack. He is still a very particular baby and knows what he wants, but he has started to interact with us more and have a lot of fun.
This month Jack:
Weighs 13 lbs 8 oz (2 months was 10 lbs. 15 oz and 3 months was 12 lbs. 2 oz.)
Length 24.5 inches (2 months was 21.25 inches and 3 months was 23.5 inches)
No longer sleeps through the night . . . SIGH . . .
May possibly be getting his first two teeth
Rolls over all the time from his tummy to his back (but still hates tummy time)
Rolls from his back to his side
Does a fake cough to get my attention
Sits up with assistance
Tries to pull himself up to sit up - but can't stay sitting up
Bares his weight on his legs
Has grown a very successful mullet (first haircut is coming soon)
Has been introduced to solid foods
Has moved to a "big boy" bath
Started sleeping in his crib (as of today)
Still yells at me when he doesn't get my attention in a "timely fashion"
Giggles out loud when I play Peek-A-Boo with him
Wraps his arms around my neck and buries his head when I pick him up from naps
Will only snuggle with mom when he is cranky
Traces circles on my chest when he is nursing
Loves watching Baby Einstein and swinging in his swing
Has gone to the water park
Has put his feet in Grandma Cindy and Grandpa Dave's pool
Is looking forward to another visit with Grandma and Grandpa Bailey

THE MANY FACES OF JACK

HELLO hair!! He's a cutie!!! We need to get together this summer. The other day a friend of my was buried very close to Gavin. I went to high school w/ Officer James (Jamie) Manor. He was buried in the Fallen Heroes area which is right next to the Garden of Inn. After Jamie's services Ella & I went to visit Gavin. Ella was talking to Gavin and looking at his Tonka trucks. Glad to see that you are doing well. xoxox
