Four Month Letter
Love Bug,
I'm not quite sure when it started, but love bug became your new nickname. Sometimes we forget what your real name is because all day long you are called love bug and lovey. Not the most masculine nicknames...but very fitting. You're so sweet and always being smothered with so much love.
You're getting so good at tummy time and holding your head up. You used to hate tummy time, but you are starting to last for longer periods of time. Slowly your starting to lift yourself up with your arms and it makes you so happy to see things around you instead of staring at the ground.
You finally got your 2 month immunization shots this month - you couldn't get them when you were two months old because we didn't want to risk you getting a fever and postponing your surgery. You handled the shots like a champ - you only cried for a few minutes and then you were totally fine the rest of the day! I expected you to come home and take a nice long nap - but instead you just smiled and kicked all afternoon long! I guess with everything you've been through...those shots are nothin. You're so tough.
Cooper loves you so much. Every morning when he wakes up he goes straight to your room to say good morning! If your still sleeping and I won't let him go in then he throws a fit and starts screaming. Sometimes his screaming wakes you up and sometimes it doesn't. Coop wakes up really early in the morning, so on the mornings that he doesn't wake you up we're all pretty happy that at least one of you is sleeping in.
Speaking of sleep, you are a pretty good sleeper. 9-10 hours seems to be your staple. We always give you a bath and then feed you a bottle and put you down. You really like to go to bed by 8, and if we try to keep you up later than that then you kind of lose it. You're just like you mom - you really enjoy going to bed early. The difference, is that you like to wake up early too. I, on the other hand, like to sleep in. Hopefully one of these days you'll figure out the true art of sleeping. 12-13 hours...that my son, is where it's at.
You're such a sweet little boy and the spirit you bring into our home is immeasurable. We love you more than we can even say.
Love,
Mom
