Judd {4 months}

Judd, you are FOUR MONTHS OLD, little dude! It's just crazy how fast time is flying. What's more crazy is just how BIG of a boy you have become in the past month. You are my little chunkers and I love every single ounce of you, as there is much more of you to love for sure!!



STATS

You weigh 18.14

97%

You are 26.5 inches long

95%

Your head is 17 inches

95%

Here you are at 1,2,3 and 4 months. Not in the correct order, but I wanted the last two months to be the bigger pictures.

You wear size mostly 9 month clothes and some 12 month clothes. You pretty much skipped 3-6 months or wore it for about 2 weeks! Mommy may or may not have wasted TOO MUCH money on buying ahead for you.

You take 5 to 6 bottles of 6 or 7 ounces and instead of feeding you when you wake up from naps, I am now feeding you to put you down for naps. You seem to do much better on this schedule as you won't take a paci but want to suck a bottle to drift off to dreamland. You've also become picky about your bottle temperature and you like it HOT. I think this is so weird but if we don't get it warm enough you act like it is disgusting and will eat like a maniac. It's comical to say the least!

We started you on oatmeal and you are a fan! It probably helps that we have been putting it in your night time bottle the past few weeks since you are always so hungry. Anyway, you eat with a spoon like you've been doing it your whole life and your pediatrician told us we could start on solids as soon as we were ready. I think we will start at 5 months with steamed veggies mashed up.

You sleep from 8pm until 8:30am and still wake up around 5 or 6am to eat. You take a nap at 9:30am and sleep until 11:30 or noon and then take another nap around 1:00 and sleep until 2:00. Your last nap is around 3:00 or 3:30 and you sleep until 5:00. Some days your nap schedule varies because of Ava's schedule, but this is what it tyhpically looks like. You are becoming a great little sleeper!

You are an easy going little buddy and smile ALL THE TIME!! You absolutely love the camera on my phone and as soon as you see my phone you cheese it up big time! You also love to smile at the baby in the mirror! You rarely cry and if you get tired or hungry, you just sort of whine.

Daddy calls you "looks" because he says you are just content observing everything around you. I'd have to agree. You also love to play with your sister! She makes you giggle. Especially when she is rough with you, which is, um, rather strange.

You reach for your toy on your car seat and pull it towards you, which makes it vibrate. We think it's cute that you understand how it works at such a young age.

You roll over from front to back and occasionally from back to front. You also love to do this pelvic thrust when I change your diaper. If we lean you up against the couch or a stack of pillows you immediately try to lean forward to sit up. You are going to be on the move in no time just like your sister was!

I'm pretty sure it's safe to say that mommy is your favorite person. I find you just staring at me from across the room and if you catch my eye you grin so big it nearly splits your pants, I'm certain. I cannot express in words how much I love you. You are my favorite little guy and each month with you just gets better and better!





One year ago today

What a difference a year makes!
One year ago we had been trying for 20 months to get pregnant. I was on my third round of Clomid and was going in for sonograms monthly to determine if I was making adequate sized eggs. On Feb 8th I went in and had the best looking egg yet. Funny that I took a picture of the sono image they gave me that reads "good luck" from the sweetest sonographer.



Weird to think that's half of Judd prior to conception, huh?!

I was beyond thrilled and actually in disbelief to read this single word printed out on that infamous little stick.




After I did a little happy dance and texted a few of my closest friends who had been praying for this day to come, I hopped into my sewing room and put together a "big sister" shirt for miss Ava.





We then drove to dad's school to share the news! Here Ava is sitting in the parking lot of the school admin building waiting for him to get out of a meeting.
What a happy day that was!
Fast forward a year later and we have our precious, most adorable little chunk of a 3 month old!!





He has made this once family of three SO JOYOUS as a family of four! We love him and cannot imagine our home without him.
What a glorious day! What a special gift from above!

He grants your heart's desire and fulfills all of your plans.
Psalm 20:4

Big Sister, Little Brother

 

“A brother is a friend God gave you; a friend is a brother your heart chose for you.”

Project 366 {week 4}

Judd {3 months}



Judd, you are no longer a newborn, sweet boy. You are now THREE MONTHS OLD! I cannot believe how fast time is flying by. What a wonderful three months it has been!

3 Month STATS

15.5 lbs

probably 24 inches

-You wear size 3-6 months clothing

-You are in a size 2 diaper, but we are slowly moving to cloth diapers as you cannot help but blow out of disposables every. single. day! I am switching between g disposable inserts and g cloth throughout the day and you wear Pampers 2's at night.

-You sleep from 8:30 until 8:30 with a feed at 5:30 or 6:00, but every once in a while you will wake up at 2:00 or 3:00 if you are extra hungry. I'm hopeful you will begin sleeping all the way through soon, just like your sister did around months 3 & 4.

-Your naps are pretty inconsistent as the part of your brain that establishes regular naps is still developing. You go down after no more than 2 hours of wakefulness and take about an hour long snooze, four or five times a day. I have noticed that your morning nap is the longest.

-You take 7 ounces of milk, every 3 hours. Sometimes though, even an 8 ounce bottle doesn't fill you up. What on earth, little boy? I can tell you will be eating solids VERY SOON!

-Your eyes are greenish brown at the moment.

What are you up to?

You are SUCH a happy baby and are very social. You love to smile when anybody talks to you. We call you a little flirt. You also LOVE to talk and hear your voice. You coo and squeal so much and it melts us!

Your favorite person is most definitely Ava. She can make you smile from ear to ear and you LOVE talking to her. Mommy is a close second after sister.

Your favorite "toy" is your red baby bjorn bouncer seat. You kick your legs a ton and so this makes the bouncer bounce and you love the movement. You also love to be in the swing.
You roll over from belly to back just as soon as we put you on your belly. Your first time to roll over was at 9 weeks, just like your sister!

My favorite thing that you do at this age is when I put your car seat in it's base in our car, you immediately look up at yourself in the mirror and grin SO SO BIG! Every single time!! I LOVE THIS about you.

You love routine and predictability and I try to give you that as much as I can, with exception to the three days Ava has school. We are in the car more than I'd prefer, but I'm hoping this makes you a flexible baby.

We love you so very much and you have brought so much JOY to this home. Ava gets so sad when I put you down for a nap because she thinks you nap too much. Ha! She wants you to be around us at all times. I agree with her, little buddy! We both get so excited and run to your room when we hear you wake up.

I am so happy you have recovered from your rough start at life and look forward to what this next month has in store for you as you continue to grow bigger, explore new things around you, and develop your sweet little personality right before my eyes!
