Its been a fun filled month with lots of activities to do! I love the beginning of the holiday season. Traditions with my family are the best! Can't wait to see what next year brings!

Sleeping 8:30pm. Wake around 4-5 to eat and then back to sleep till 7. It has been heaven sent that you are a good night time sleeper. Makes me feel a little less of a "mombie". Though sometimes you still throw us and wake at 2,5,7 am so I can't really call it a set routine. Mostly we just plan for you to be up three times at night and if it's only once, then we are extra happy. As I am typing this we are snuggling on the couch watching tv. You woke at 5:30 to eat and decided we should be up for the day. You also still like to be swaddled at night. 

You tend to be grumpy during the day and naps still only last about 45 minutes with one longer nap around 3.  You fit so smoothly in to our life and daily routine. I can't believe it's already been 4 months but at the same time it feels like you have always been here. 

You smile all day long and are starting to get those deep belly laughs. They are the best! Your dark newborn hair is falling out and new blond hair is taking it's place. I can't wait to see what color you end up being. Your eyes are darker then madi's were by now, they are kind of a deeper brown green like dad's and not the deep blue Madison's were. 

You love to be held and facing out so you can see everything that's going on. You have not yet rolled over because you completely hate tummy time and refuse to do anything but scream bloody murder. We are working on it. 

This month we visited the dermatologist about your hemangioma. It's nothing serious but it's still growing pretty quickly and I would like to get it removed if possible. We need to go see a pediatric dermatologist at the end of the month to see what she wants to do about it. The only concern is the placement of it being between the bones in your skull as they are still fusing together it could cause a possible issue.
