Our little bear is 4 months old



Four months old - and what a fun, cheerful little boy he is! Lately he is:
  • acquiring very chubby cheeks and a serious potbelly 
  • rolling over from tummy to back, and back to side
  • holding head up and sitting well in the Bumbo seat 
  • learning to grab and hold onto toys, and to intentionally kick at his hanging toys to make them swing around 
  • sleeping through the night (7 PM - 6 AM; nurse; back to sleep for 1-2 hours)
  • 'learning' to nap more consistently - some days - and to 'self-soothe' to sleep (i.e. still a lot of crying...)
  • very easy-going in his car seat and on errands. Stays happy when we are out.
  • standing, standing, standing!
  • laughing when we tickle his chest!
  • and best of all - he loves to watch & listen to his sister. When he hears Gemma, he will turn his head until he finds her, then study her & grin at her & coo








For fun - here is Gemma in that same dinosaur outfit at the same age exactly! (and funny enough, this picture was taken when we were in Durham in Jan '11; and now here we are again)
