Our little (or should or should I say our Big) boy Ryler is already 4 months old. He's a 4 month old that looks like an 8 month old. Tonight I was getting him in his Jammie's for bed, and realized his onsie is an 18month size, and it fit! Crazy. He is now up to 20 pounds almost and is doing great. I asked the doctor if he was too chubby and she laughed at me. Thank goodness she does not recommend putting a 4 month old on a diet. I'm tall, Clayton's tall, so Rylers just going to be a big boy. He is a smart little boy and is doing everything a 4 month old should be doing; however tummy time is still not one of his favorite activities because that means he has to hold his head up and man, those cheeks are just to darn heavy! It is hard to believe what an amazingly good baby he still is. And he came from me who as a child was anything but calm. He still has never thrown a crying fit. He's cried but it takes a second to calm him. He loves to smile and has the cutest little dimples, just like his dad. Our most favorite parts of the day are bath time, he gets so relaxed. Also bedtime. I know he so young, but I do read to him every night. He loves it. He just sits on my lap and looks at the pictures, and when we're done he goes in his crib and right to sleep. Sometimes I can't help it, we'll rock in the glider at night until he falls asleep, and that truly is my favorite time of the day! He is starting to really recognize people, and it's easy to tell who he really knows and likes. I love when I get home from work, or go to get him out of his crib in the morning, he looks up at me with the biggest smile and gets so excited. That really makes the 6:30 Wake up time worth it! :)
