4 months

Weight: 16 lbs 3 oz (64%)
Height: 26.25 in (89%)

Our big guy is growing so fast! Overall, he is a happy and smiley baby, as long as someone is paying attention to him :)
Here are some of the things Conrad is doing at 4 months:
-loves to "talk" to you
-reaching for and grabbing his toys
-rolling from tummy to back and almost from back to tummy (if he could just figure out how to move that arm!)
-taking thickened breastmilk by bottle every 2 hours during the day and sleeping all night!
-outgrowing his 3-6 month clothes and size 2 diapers quickly.
-like to suck and chew on his fingers and grab his toes
-gets scared very easily by loud noises and even peekaboo :)
-sits up with help from Mommy or the boppy
-prefers to stand and starting to like bouncing in the jumparoo...big boy!
-drools nonstop
-figured out how to scream (happily)



Love his giggles
This pretty much sums up what he deals with daily...dog licking him, big brother driving cars on him.  No wonder he barely naps! :)

3 Months

I'm not sure what happened to Conrad's 3 month post...I could have swore I had one started, but I guess not :(  Maybe the end of my maternity leave had me temporarily crazy ;)  At least I didn't forget the pictures, so here are those....

Loves to grab his toes

Tries to fit his whole fist in his mouth!

Preschool

Wyatt's first day of preschool. A day I have been dreading pretty much since he was born! We have been lucky enough to not have to leave him with anyone but family until now. The only thing that got me to actually drop him off and leave was knowing that school is going to be really good for him in the long run. He needs to spend some time with other kids and learn to follow some rules :). He cried and tried to run out of the classroom after me when We dropped him off. Saddest thing ever :(. He even got tearful again when I picked him up and said "mommy, I was trying to find you". Hopefully he learns to love it. Otherwise, he might be staying home with his mama forever ;-)

Brother fun

Conrad loves watching his big brother! He thinks he is so funny! I can tell that it is only a matter of time before he is joining in the craziness!!
