Four Months

F O U R   M O N T H S  O L D
We know have a four month old! This four month stage has been so much fun. It amazes me how much he changes week by week, right in front of my eyes, he’s doing something new. Our evenings are filled with lots of interactive playtime, goofy faces, snap chat fun, cartoons, and feedings. He’s had a touch of evening colic so we have to hold him a lot, some days are more challenging than others. Nolan is very social and generous with his smiles now. He gives us a good laugh with his grunty-pursed lip look, he is such a handsome little fella. He’s working so hard on rolling over and practicing his superman moves. His new thing is fake coughing, we will say “is the baby sick” and he’ll give a smile so big and start his little coughing fit, he’s quite the comedian. We’re 1/3 of the way to his first birthday, time please slow down!
