Happy 4 Months, Sweet Baby Boy!!

How is Colby already 4 months?!? Where does the time go?? Colby is such a sweet pea and we are trying to soak up this time as much as possible!!

At 4 months Colby weighs 15lbs 5.5 oz (47th percentile) and is 24.5" inches tall (20-26th percentile) and his noggin is 17.25" (96th percentile haha). Colby is in size 3 month clothes and size 2 diapers. At 4 months, Abigail was 11lbs 13 oz and was in the less than 5th percentile for height and weight. Abigail was a little peanut!! We had to rent a scale to monitor her weight because she was so small!! Colby on the other hand....yowzers!! Colby is a BIG boy!! He is definitely eatin good in the neighborhood!! Recently when we've been out, everyone guesses his age to be 6 months or older!! And then when we tell them he's only 3/4 months, they always say "Wow!! He's a BIG boy!!" Yes, yes he is!!!
Colby is a busy boy. He loves to be movin and groovin. Keep it movin people!! One of Colby's favorite things to do is to be outside. He loves going on walks, going to the playground, Farmer's Market....you name it....a man about town:-) We love to be outside and on the go so it works well!
Colby is quite the chatterbox. It is SOOO cute when he "talks!!" My favorite is after a feeding, Colby will lay in my arms and just chat away. I'm melting just thinking about it!! <3
Colby loves to grab anything and everything, especially hair!! Ouch!! It so sweet to watch him concentrate so hard on what he is trying to grasp. Abigail is SO wonderful with her baby brother! She loves to get him toys and play music for him to keep him entertained! The two of them together....just precious!!
It seems that Colby may be cutting a tooth sometime soon. Not gonna lie...I'm a little nervous with breastfeeding!! He is constantly putting his hands in his mouth and is drooling like crazy!! We can see the little white tooth underneath his gum. It seems to be really bothering him:(  Distraction is really the only thing that helps because he's not a fan of the cold rings or washcloths!
Colby is still not the best sleeper. He is sleeping in his crib now and we moved him from a swaddle to a Zipadee Zip. Not so sure the Zipadee Zip helps him sleep but he loves it! Typically he smiles as soon as we put him in it. He looks so stinkin cute in it too!! Colby wakes up about 5-20 times a night. Yes...I know...ugh....but we can telling ourselves that it's a phase and one day Colby will sleep through the night. He will sleep through the night one day, right?!?

Colby has the cutest smile and laugh!! It makes our day!! And his rolls....oh my goodness!! Just want to eat him up!!! We cannot look at his sweet face without smiling and smothering him in kisses!! We just love our Colby Colbs to pieces!! Happy 4 months, sweet baby boy!!! xoxo
