4 Months

At 4 months old, Adrian:

*Is trying to sit up. He will lift his head and shoulders when he's reclined.
*Is getting better control of his hands. He is a pro at sucking his thumb and his fist.  He's getting very good at grabbing toys and bringing them to his mouth.
*Has a habit where he eats for a couple of seconds, stops, looks at me, smiles, repeat.
*Just gave several belly laughs while watching Glee. I've never heard him laugh so hard.
*Has great head control.
*Stares at his mom like there's no one else in the world!
*Must weigh at least 16 lbs, Matt weighed him a couple weeks ago.
*Has started crying when someone besides me or Matt holds him.
*Seems to have a preference for men or at least is more fascinated by them.

Adrian's first Christmas will be so awesome!  Matt helped me picked out his first stocking, and I got three so when we have more kids they'll match and I won't have to search for coordinating ones. We don't have a fireplace so I put hung them from stocking hooks on the bookshelf:

I couldn't help myself. Sorry if this is picture overload, it's hard to choose when you're the mommy!


His 4 month appointment is on the 12th so I'll give more updates then. Finally I won't be dreading that scale!
