We are ready to celebrate the big 4 months with Cole by watching the Packers crush the Bears! :) Scott, Beth, Nate and Melanie are all heading over for the game. The anticipation has been rising all week...this morning Kyle woke up saying, "Today is the day!" Now...on to the 4 month post!
It is unbelievable how fast these months go and unbelievable how much fun Cole is every month. And fun in new ways! This was a big month of changes and transitions!
- The inaccurate weigh-in says Cole is between 13-15 pounds. We get the real number on Tuesday at his 4 month appointment. I believe he is 23 inches. So, he is growing and I am wondering if he will still be "petite."
- He is still wearing 0-3 months clothing. And there is still some room so no need to go shopping yet! :) But I am excited for when I get to.
- He has started going to the sitters and he is really doing well. They LOVE having him there and he has been a blessing while there.
- He continues to nap extremely well. Just wants to lay down and sleep.
- We had a lot of work with getting Cole to sleep through the night with just starting the process and him getting sick and then starting the process again. We have got him sleeping til 4:00 am. Then Kyle goes in and gives him his nuk and then I feed him at 5:30 usually.
- He had his first fever! It was a little scary for me but we got through it. Mariah had him for the first day of it and did a great job. Josh too!
- He has become more aware. Kind of like a robot moving his head all over the place in a rigid way.
- He looks at Nala all the time. So, he notices her which is kind of cool.
- He has FINALLY started to smile at me when I talk to him. It is sooooo fun! I say "Hi Cole Baby" and he laughs right away.
- We have moved from eating 4 ounces a day to 6 ounces every feeding. I can't keep up so we have been supplementing with formula.
- At the 6:00 feeding he gets some rice cereal! So fun and he now opens his mouth to enjoy it. Cute!
- He continues to be the light of our life. It is amazing how life transforms. I go to school and when I get home my life is all about the Cole Baby! Spring Break can't come soon enough. :)
