Nugget Boy turned 4 months old on Wednesday - 1/3 of a year old! I highlighted his 4 month stats in an earlier post, so here are his other fun facts for the month:
- he is still in 3-6 month clothes and just graduated to size 2 diapers yesterday.
- for the past month he has been sleeping all night long! Some nights, we're in to change a diaper or put the pacifier in to settle him back down, but he's getting a lot better at not needing us at all, which is amazing. Keep that up Jack! We're still swaddling him, however 2 nights in a row this week he did bust his arms out. He stayed asleep during all this, so that's encouraging for when we attempt to de-swaddle
- Naps have become a bit of a struggle. He goes down for a nice long 2 hour morning nap like a champ, but after that it's anybody's guess if he'll nap again (and when).
-he's discovered his hands and feet and loves looking at them. Feet especially.
- Speaking of hands, he's constantly eating them and is starting to become a little bit of drool machine. He loves blowing spit bubbles. Any new toy he picks up immediately goes towards his mouth first.
- He really is a happy, sweet boy 99% of the time. Every morning we get a huge smile before getting him out of the crib and he is always very talkative and full of energy. Only time he really gets crabby is if his meal is not presented to him fast enough or he is very tired.
- He takes 5oz bottles from Grandma Paulette during the day when Mommy is at work 3 days a week. They seem to be getting along pretty good and we are very thankful Grandma is willing to make the drive every day!
- As previously mentioned, he rolled over this week. However that has yet to happen again but we are still working on it.
- This week we tried him in the bumbo chair and he did great. I think he enjoys sitting up like a big boy as it gives him a change of scenery.
- he started playing with new toys this month, namely his light up turtle, key rings, and drums. At Grandma Paulette's last weekend she put him in their piano entertainer and he did ok. I think in a couple more weeks we can bust that one out at home.

He is so smiley! I love Lucy staring (glaring?) at him, too :)
