When you turned 3 months, Mommy went back to work... that should explain why your 3 month and 4 month posts are being combined! I can't believe it's been 4 months and 1 week since you came into our lives. You have brought us so much happiness. It's a good thing I made a list of all the things you did during your third month because you grow and change so quickly...it's hard to remember!
In your third month, you found your toes, your thumb, and started putting your hand into your mouth. You learned to roll over- both ways. You rolled so much in your crib that we would put you to sleep in one place and 5 minutes later we couldn't see you on the monitor! You started smiling and talking to us a lot more.
You went on an airplane to Cape Cod and saw the ocean!!
You furrow your eyebrows all the time (you look just like Daddy when he's thinking).
We love that you still startle yourself awake... all four limbs hit the mattress hard! We love that when we put you to sleep with your pacifier in your mouth, you spit it out right before you fall into a deep sleep.
In your fourth month, you grew so much. You started wearing 3-6 months shirts but you're still rocking your 0-3 month jeans. You are our string bean!
You love to jump in your jumper even though your toes barely touch the ground. You love when we hold you up and do 'airplane'!
This month has been hard now that Mommy is back to work. Every moment at home is sacred. We appreciate our weekends more and 5-7:30pm is the most special time of our day during the week. I love waking you up in the morning and seeing your great big smile as you wipe the sleep out of your eyes.
You love going to Nana & Papa's house and watching your little cousins play. It won't be long until you will be playing with them too. Patrick can't wait! You love going to Ms. Cheryl's house too and you've been a good baby for her! You are very loved all week long.
Long gone are the days when you would just fall asleep in our arms several times a day. Now, I just steal my cuddles from you in the middle of the night (yes... you are still waking up in the middle of the night- twice... it. used. to. be. once.) I love listening to you breathe while you're sleeping on my chest. Now that Mommy is back to work she kisses you a little more, rocks you a little longer, and holds you a little tighter...
i love you ryan.
love, mommy
