Haddon at 4 months






My little guy is 4 months old!!  Haddon is just the sweetest little guy. He is smiley and adorable and so very wonderful.  As Amaia gets older and little crazier every day I am soaking up the sweetness and peacefulness of my little baby boy.  I know he will grow and join in on the craziness and that will be fun too, but I am really enjoying the way he is right now :)

At 4 months old Haddon is on the same 3 hour schedule that he has been on for a while now.  We start our day officially at 9 and he eats every 3 hours until bedtime at about 8:30.  He usually wakes up between 4 and 6 in the morning, eats again and then he goes back to sleep until 9.  He naps and sleeps at night like a champ.  He only cries for a minute or so if he is a little over tired going down for his naps.  I think he is getting a little bit faster at nursing and he has become more social in his fourth month.  He likes to take a break from eating and just look up at me and flash me a big gummy grin, which is pretty much the most adorable thing ever!

We had a doctor's visit this month so I have updated stats on my favorite little boy:

Weight: 14 lbs. (20%)
Length: 25.5 inches (66%)
Head: 17 inches (90%)

Haddon is starting to enjoy toys.  He hangs on for dear life to the toys on his playmat or anything else he can get his hands on, which also includes my hair.  He really likes playing peek a boo and looking at himself in the mirror!  He also likes music and being sung to.  He has started laughing on occasion. Last week at church he was laughing and laughing as I held him during the worship music.  I hope it was not an expression of his opinion of my singing voice ;)  He unfourtunately still hates bathtime, but he is hating tummy time less and less and holds his head up quite well and rolls over often now too.



I think he must take often his daddy in the looks and personality department  becuase he is quite the go with the flow guy.  He cries very little for a baby in my opinion.  And he doesn't reserve his smiles for only me.  He enjoys his grandparents and Aunt Ashley and from what I hear he is just as sweet to them when I am not around.  Such a chill, great guy!
