4 Months! What?


Sawyer turned 4 months old on the 1st, and all I can say is what? He is growing up so quickly and is the cutest little nice boy I've ever met. He is such a joy. He is such an easy baby. We know exactly what is wrong with him when he cries. Poop, hungry, tired. It's that simple. He is such a sweet baby. He loves me so much and it melts my heart every day. If I'm being completely honest, I wasn't the most happy when I found out we were having a boy. I didn't know what to do with them, and quite frankly little boys around 7 or 8 annoy the crap out of me. Now that we hae Sawyer I can't belive how stupid I was to think that. He is so wonderful. It's so funny to me that our friends see him and say, "he looks just like Nick. It's kind of weird to kiss him and then look at him and think that we are kissing a little Nick." I laugh. Sometimes I see Nick and sometimes he looks just like a chubby version of Sydney. We took him for his 4 month wcc, and he is currently 15lbs 3oz (50%), 24 inches long (25%), and his head is 17 inches around (75%). I feel like he weighs so much more than that, but it must just be because he is so stinking short. He has the chubbiest thighs, and cheeks, but the most beautiful blue eyes, and such a cute smile. Some of his favorite things to do are, stare cross-eyed at his hands clasped together, hang on to his right foot and suck on his left hand, giggle, cuddle, and smile. He is truly a joy in our lives, and I know that he loves me so much, and that is nice when Sydney doesn't love me. On a Sydney note, she has said some funny things lately. Here are a few I can remember. I can't remember the most funny one, and it makes me so mad.

On halloween night she ran down from a door after receiving candy and yelled, "I love Happy Halloween."

When not wanting to clean up a mess she has made she will frequently say, "Mom, I can't do it. I'm too small that is a mommy job, not a Sydney job."

When going to school she will tell me ahead of time whether or not she is going to cry that day at school. Usually she is right on.

These aren't nearly all the funny ones, but my mind can't remember any of the funnies. I will definitely have to start writing them down. She's a cheese head.

Too Cute!! I have to agree time is going by way to fast. Ryan is already getting close to 6 months!! It sounds like we were both blessed with two good little boys! Ryan is the same way, which gives me hope for the future of more kids. :)

He is so cute! I totally know what you mean about having a boy, I was sad when I found out about Lincoln but now I wouldn't trade him in for anything. They are so much fun and just get better.
