Little Man, Boone is FOUR months old! There is no new way to say how fast time flies, but seeing him at his new big, rolly polly, smiley state has me realizing that he is closer to a crawling babe than a tiny helpless newborn whether I'm ready for it or not.
I will say that when his big blue eyes find and focus on mine, he literally turns into a human smile. His cheeks lift up, his eyes light up, his whole body squirms with glee and his mouth forms the biggest open mouth grin you've ever seen. Wait... photographic evidence below:
At four months Boone is in the 95th percentile for height... he is SO long... and the 30th percentile for weight, weighing in at 14 1/2 pounds and he is happy and healthy as can be.
He loves to suck on his hands and fingers. He drools (or leaks as Acey says) incessantly. He just started to roll all across the living room, but prior to that at just after three months old, he would roll over and get stuck on his tummy.
He hates to be alone (which usually works in his favor at this house). He is learning to enjoy the car seat... or maybe I should say he is learning to tolerate it? He coos and sings and shrieks with glee but he cries every time his Daddy-o sneezes. :)
His brothers love him HARD. Sometimes a little too hard, but generally speaking they adore him and are gentle and loving with him.
We love the happiness he has brought to our home... he even smiles when he sleeps.
And he is slowly cutting back on the amount of night time wake-ups for which his mama is grateful. He is by far our worst night sleeper, but, knock on the wood, the last two nights he has only waken at 5:30 am or so. Send us all your Mister Sandman vibes....
Good thing you're so cute, Booner...
XO Little Man.
