4 months

Where has the time gone.  It is literally just speeding by and it is not slowing down.  This month has been great!!!  Braxton continues to develop into his own little self and we LOVE it.  He smiles ALL the time.  Let's see what else:

Our Happy Boy! 

He was very interested in touching this bear, it was so cute!



  • Weight 15lb 14oz, Height 26 inches
  • He is starting to talk more... EDIT: he has found his voice.  March 18th he started doing this high pitched noise and he has NOT stopped! He loves to do it about 3AM too =)
  • His sleeping has been really off for about the last month.  It started out with a stuffy nose but then turned into the teething, the stuffy nose went away.... then came back along with an ear infection. 
  • He wears mainly 6-9 month clothes and can fit into a couple of twelve month short onesie outfits that I have bought him for summer.  He is a big boy, not huge by any means, but he is VERY long for his age and I think a little heavy ;)
  • Brax has officially cut his first tooth (March 6th) and the second one I can feel the top but it has not come all the way through.  EDIT: the second one has broken all the way through so daddy always tells him that he has "two tooths"!  We love the big open mouth smiles that show both of his teeth! 
  • He had his first ear infection this month. When people say to trust your motherly instinct... trust it! I am so glad that I was off for spring break so that I was able to catch it and get him into the doctor ASAP!
  • He LOVES to stand up now.  For the first couple of months he would not put ANY weight on his legs (of course I did not expect him too for like the first two months)  But now he LOVES to stand up and a lot of times would rather be standing than sitting! 
Standing up like a big boy! 

  • He loves to kick his legs still.  We kid that he will probably be a runner because he is constantly "running." (he didn't get the running from me, haha)
  • He is in a size two diaper. 
  • He takes 6oz at most feedings (the teething and stuffy nose has thrown him off a little but he continues to be a pretty good eater!)
  • He does not mind tummy time as long as we do not leave him there forever.
  • He can roll onto his side (both ways) but can not roll all the way over yet.  EDIT: last night he made it all the way over minus his hand getting stuck. 
  • He loves to hold his rattle and shake it until he hits himself in the head.  
Getting Ready for SUMMER!!!
Sleeping next to Daddy

We have both enjoyed this last month sooo much (not that we did not enjoy all of the others ones) but he has started to really do some stuff (haha).  

Happy 4 month birthday baby boy!  Mommy and Daddy love you to the moon and back!!
