Lawrence: 4 Months

Lawrence,

At four months, you are such a sweet baby. We love each day with you.

You love to be on your play mat, grabbing the toys and looking in the mirror. You make lots of different noises and are starting to squeal more when you get excited.

You put everything you can in your mouth and especially like to bite daddy's fingers.

Your eyes are starting to lighten, and your hair is getting wavy, thick, and even longer. We're debating whether we should cut it or not. You weigh about 13 lbs., 11 oz. and are 25 3/4" long.

You're starting to be more social and smile more easily. More and more often you want to be held or at least talked to, not laid down alone.

You are incredibly observant and are often content to just sit with someone and watch everything that's going on around you. You take everything in as it happens, usually with a pretty serious expression and big, big eyes. This has made it a little harder to get you to sleep - we have to be in a sort of quiet space for that to happen!

When you wake up, you stretch your arms straight down by your sides; rarely do you stretch up over your head.

On July 31st you rolled over for the first time. It was so quick we would have missed it if we blinked.

We love you and are excited to see what comes next!
