Duncan 3 and 4 months

I can hardly believe this little boy is 4 months old.  Time is flying by.  Duncan was quite a fussy baby, but has really turned a corner and is so chill and content for the most part now.  He is such a joy and just refreshing for me right now.  I love this stage where they begin to interact with you.  Here is a little bit of what he is doing lately.  

3Months:
Sleeps - still does not love naps unless it is a quick cat nap on the go or on his tummy
-More and more content and chill 
-Loves to smile
-Started cooing (Caroline loves this) 
-Feeding schedule is 7am, 10, 2pm, 5, and 8pm. (We are close to making the bed time earlier as he is so -sleepy by 7pm typically)
-Wearing mostly 3-6 month clothes 
-Started "playing" with his toys that hang in bouncy seat and car seat
-Loves his paci



Some other favorite pics at 3 months.








4Months:
14 lbs and 6oz.  27 inches long 

Sleep - Around 3.5 months he started napping more in his bed instead of always on the go/little cat naps.  He will still nap on the go for the most part which is very helpful some days, but if we are home for a nap time, he will go down in his bed.  If we are home, he takes a morning nap about 9, mid day nap around 11:45 or noon (usually takes this one on the go), afternoon nap about 2 and then one more cat nap about 6pm.  

He eats at 7, 10, 1 or 2(depending on the day), 4, and 7.  We are in the process of unswaddling for sleeping right now and transitioning to the sleep sack.  We are doing one arm at a time, so far so good with the first arm out.    

-still so smiley
-has found his toes/feet
-loves rolling side to side, but not rolling all over yet
-can grab toys and put in his mouth
-really likes cuddling with a lovey 
-sitting in the bumbo some

Fall Lake Weekend


We spent last weekend up at Lake Hartwell with our small group. It was a full weekend with 9 little ones in tow.  So much fun to getaway and spend more time together than just our Thursday nights.  

We started meeting with 2 of these other couple exactly 5 years ago and then, Meade and ME joined about a year and half ago when they moved to Atlanta.  So grateful for all these wonderful friends and kids to walk thru life in our community.
