4.5 months
You are four .5 months old. You are so so smiley and such a happy baby. You don't cry very often. This past month you have been moving all around. In circles and inching on your belly. Then this week you have been really working on new moves trying to push up into a crawling position and turn one way am and the other with your hands up. But just last night in your sleep you were pushing back onto your knees and elbows. You move so so fast. Rolling all over. You reach for things very purposfully and of course then out everything right in your mouth. Lila is your favorite thing mostly. She makes you laugh (by dancing around and doing silly faces) when you hear her you can't help but smile and look for her. This makes napping difficult for you but we find the time. You still are napping (or wanting to nap) all day. But with an active big sister that doesn't happen so easily. But today the two of us got to snuggle and nap all morning while daddy and Lila played and went to the market. It feels so nice getting to spend that time with you, just us and the quiet. You have these big amazing eyes that look right into my soul. I can't help but feel happy when you look at me.
I know when I look into your eyes I know you are a kind gentle soul who is only going to make the world a better place. How am I so lucky to be a part of your world. I love you baby boy.
