Garet is 4 Months!

Stats: 13 lbs 15 oz (25%) 24 in (10-25%) Head Circumference 41cm (10-25%)

Well, what do you know. Garet is the baby of the family and here it is 3 whole days after he turned 4 months and I am finally posting his 4 month picture.
Garet is a happy baby! He is content to lay on the floor and kick his feet. He loves it when someone sits and talks to him. He is beginning to figure out that he has hands and that he has some control over those hands! He has his fist in his mouth quite often. He still won't take a pacifier. He loves his swing and usually takes his naps in that. I have started putting him in his big crib in Makenzi's room but he isn't too sure about that. He still sleeps in the pack and play in my room at night well though. Everyone loves to make him smile!

Dry Baby

Poor Garet,his baby soft skin isn't baby soft. He is such a good baby that he doesn't complain but he sure does have dry patches! I tried putting baby oil on him, baby lotion twice a day, and finally I have found that Cetaphil works the best. I just have to keep him lathered!

Eli's Schoolwork

This is just one example of what we see with Eli's schoolwork. He is so detailed on his projects that sometimes it just makes Spencer and I laugh. I don't know how well you can see but, the page was for practicing his spacing between his words and then he was supposed to draw a picture of the sentence that he wrote.

He drew a picture of the fat cat sitting on a brown box in the lower right corner and he only knows what else he decided to add!
