Another birthday...


I'm 4 months old today!

Mommy can't believe where the last month went. She doesn't think I've changed much since my last birthday. BUT, Aunt Katy and Grandpa Schneider visited me last week after not seeing me for a month. And they couldn't believe how big I am!

These days my little gums are sore. I drool ALL the time and just love to chew on my hands. Mommy gives me teething toys but my hands aren't quite ready to grab the toys and put them in my mouth, so right now my hands have to do--or sometimes my shirt; that's easy to grab and shove in my mouth! I'm usually soaking wet!

I love day care! I have many friends there. I love to watch the big kids play and I spend a lot of time with my buddy Thomas. We both hate tummy time. Mommy hears that we both scream when we're down on our tummies, even when we're facing each other. There's just WAY too much going on and we don't want to miss anything!

Yesterday was VERY exciting because I sat in my exersaucer for the first time! I'm still pretty teeny for it, but Mommy put a blanket behind me and Daddy put a stack of books under my feet :) There's a LOT going on, it's like a baby casino!

I'm putting up a bit of a fight with my crib. I LOVE sleeping in my comfy Little Lamb swing, but the other day Mommy put me in my crib. I fell asleep in it on my own, but I hate it! I've only made it one full night. Oh yeah...that's my funny little joke on Mommy. I no longer sleep through the night, mwa-ha-ha!!! Mommy can count on stumbling sleepily into the room around 2:30. It's my poor little gummies.

It's a big week for me--tomorrow I go to my 4 month checkup and find out how much I weigh! Then this weekend I get to visit my cousins and both of my grandparents! I will also meet some baby friends!

Life just keeps getting more and more fun!
