4 months!

my baby is 4 months old and i don't even know where the time went. it feels like ages ago that i was even pregnant (that's a good thing)! now it feels like River has been with us forever- it's hard to remember when we didn't have him.

i LOVE taking care of him and watching him grow and change and discover new things. currently, River loves to suck on his hands, and if he can get both of them into his little mouth at once he likes it even better! he recently learned that he has feet and he likes to grab onto his toes and hang on as best he can. he LOVES Gigi, and laughs hysterically when she runs around. then we laugh hysterically because his laugh is so cute!

Rivs can roll over from the front and the back. he also looks like he's about to crawl any second, but i'm okay with it if that doesn't happen for a while. he gets on his tummy and kicks off so he can scoot a little bit- he just needs to get a little upper body strength and learn to work those biceps! everybody always thinks he's much older than 4 months. he's a pretty big guy. not fat, just big. i just think he's very cute, of course.

we love our Rivs!


the bald spot. when is this thing gonna fill in?! now there are little bald patches all over his head! not the most attractive right now, but i'm confident he'll have some seriously thick hair if it's anything like mine or logan's.


little angel. sleeping- for once. :)

It's the belly laugh, isn't it? I loooove the belly laugh - and I read that it is a sign of intelligence when they have the belly laugh so young. I mean, not that you needed one, but still :) I am still so glad we had a dog for West to grow up with. Mooja is still his favorite toy.

I feel the same way- I can't remember not having Cora with us.

Love it!!
