We love our rice cereal!

We love our books. He is so funny - he likes to hold the book and it looks like he is really reading it when he moves his head from side to side. His sleeping is getting back to normal - Thank Goodness. So far the few times that we have put him down while he was still awake or has woken up when he goes down he has done a good job of putting himself to sleep. We will see if this continues.

We love Baby Einstein. He will sit there for the full 20 minutes in his bouncy seat and blow bubbles. The doctor went well minus the shots. He is 16 lbs and 25 1/2 inches long. He is around the 80% percentile for both height and weight. He LOVES his rice cereal. I can't get it in fast enough. He has also started to get back on a good sleep schedule - like sleeping through the night again. We are going to start the cry it out this week I think. I will keep you posted. Here is picture tha I just took of him watching Baby Einstein. Too sweet!

Who Needs Sleep?

Apparently not Jackson! He has been waking up several times a night for about a week now. We head to the doctor tomorrow for his 4 month well check up, so I am interested to see what he has to say. We will start on rice cereal tomorrow - I can't wait to see what he thinks of that. I know that it is about time to stop rocking him to sleep and letting him put himself down. I dread this not only for the fact that we are going to have to listen to him cry, but I am really going to miss rocking him and having him sleep on me. I know it is what is best for him and us in the long run. He is just getting so big so quickly - he really is very aware of his surroundings and loves to laugh. I will update with all of his 4 month stats tomorrow. I just had to take his picutre in his cute new outfit that his Gram got him.

Happy Belated Birthday Aunt Alli!

Happy belated Birthday Aunt Alli! We had a great time celebrating with all of the cousins tonight. As you can see from the pictures we are a very "moist" baby!

Sweet Boy

We are finally getting over our cold - yeah this means we might get some sleep! This is just a cute picture I took during a diaper change.

We are Home!

We are home from our wonderful week at DeBordieu over the 4th. Thanks so much to Glenn and Elisa for being such wonderful hosts. We celebrated Will Kirk's 3rd Birthday while we were there. Jackson did so good while we were gone - he slept through the night and was such a good boy under the tent on the beach. We have our first cold which has not been great. The past two nights he has woken up about every hour unable to breath. We finally talked to the doctor and he is taking Benadryl and doing better. Hopefully we will get some sleep tonight since I seem to be the lucky Mommy that Benadryl doesn't keep him awake. We will have our 4 month check up next Friday - I am anxious to see how much he has grown yet not anxious about the next round of shots. I don't have any pictures from the beach b/c we always seemed to be on the go and when we went we had to lug so much other stuff to keep him entertained and the camera never made the cut. I will have to get some more pictures to post of my sweet bald boy.
