4 months!

Preston was 4 months old on the 17th! We had his 4 month Dr. visit today. Most everything is great...besides another ear infection! Because we just had him on antibiotics, the doctor gave him a stronger antibiotic this time. I'm hoping it will take care of the problem. He weighs 14 lbs. 10 oz. and is 24 1/2 inches long! He's growing up so fast! He has been rolling around more on the floor lately. I'm having to start keeping the kids toys out of his way. He holds his head up really well...getting ready for crawling! It's weird but he seems to actually prefer being on his belly. If I lay him on his back, he immediately flips over. He's getting better with his colic. He's not quite so angry all the time! It's nice to be able to tickle him and to make him smile with silly noises. He's starting to laugh more! He holds his breath sometimes still, and tries to shove his whole hand in his mouth to stop the laugh. When he gets it out though...it's pretty darn cute! He likes to play in his little bouncy monkey thing that we bought him. He still loves the swing...and the vacuum is a God send when we can't get him to settle down! It seems weird, but it really does work! Preston's hair seems to be getting lighter in color...I think we may have a blond hair blue eyed baby on our hands! He still has a dark patch of hair in the back, below his bald spot, and some dark strands on the top. He's been losing some of that hair though, so we will see! He is still a little slobber monster! We keep a bib on him pretty much all the time to catch the drool! The adjustment to me working is still moving forward. Daddy has a hard time now and then on the weekends. Preston is just used to having Mommy around. We are getting there! We are really enjoying having a little one around. Even though he's so much work....he's also so much fun!

There's my handsome little man! Jared calls him our Gerber baby!

Getting comfy on the floor

Sucking his thumb..

Christmas day...in his monkey chair!

This is so funny because he was playing under his floor toy, tried to roll out, knocked it over, got stuck and fell asleep! There has only been a couple times he's fallen asleep on his own!

Christmas Eve

Playing with one of his new favorite toys! His feet!
