Mommy's baby is 4 months old


Deacon was 4 months old on Sunday!! We had his 4 month well child check up today and our little Frank the Tank is doing just great. He is still a big boy rounding out at 16 lbs. and 24 1/2 in long. He met all of his developmental milestones and was very noise but happy for the whole appointment. His reflux is still an issue but we are staying on top of it and giving him larger dosages of his meds to help him be more comfortable, even if it doesn't decrease the volume of spit up. Deacon is also becoming very vocal around the house not letting us get away with letting him go un-noticed anymore. He is also rolling over and putting everything in his mouth. He continues to be my little cuddle bug loving to be held, hugged and kissed. I know it's a cliche but he truly is such a little blessing. I can hardly remember what it was like without him around. He is SO lovable! I just can't get enough of his rolly little thighs and his chubby tummy.

I hope everyone is enjoying the holiday season. I'm trying to remember to just enjoy it and not get to stressed out. Jacob is so into it! He loves the lights on the trees, candles, and singing Away In a Manger. Thankfully he's only unwrapped a few presents that I've been wrapping for Christmas parties this weekend. I guess what can you expect from a curious little 21 month old.
