My little man, you are already 4 months old. I look into those big blue eyes and see all the wonders we have in store. Your smile lights up my world. Frequent and unabashed are the words that come to mind when I dream of your face lighting up. Your little (or maybe just a little big) cheeks are to melt for. I often am told, "You are going to be in trouble with him" and I could not agree more.
You are a Mommy's boy and I love it. Daddy gets jealous every now and again so if you could settle down when he holds you, it would make him feel much better. Sometimes I just have to be in your line of site and you give me a big smile. Laughter has echoed through our halls a few times thanks to a sweet little man's voice. And talking is a regular. Daddy and I were just saying how literally over night you started your rambling. Just the sweetest.
I thought by this age you would be sleeping much better but unfortunately that is not the case. You go down at 7 with your sister and by 9 you are fussing. Then at 11 or 12. And again at 3. And again at 5:30 when you think it is the morning. Mommy has tried EVERYTHING she knows how, eating frequently, eating every 4 hours, cry it out, instant soothing, long naps, short naps, swaddle, no swaddle, sound machine, no sound machine and everything in between. I feel like I am slightly losing my mind. May the many prayers of family and friends help us because a crazy, tired mommy is no fun!
My dearest Carson you have been rolling over but just this past weekend, along with your active voice, you have started rolling on a regular basis. I find you turning yourself in a circle as well like a clock just spinning away. You are sleeping right now and I heard you starting to fuss. I went in to check on you and you are swaddled, on your tummy(thats a first), trying to get the pacifier in your mouth. It was quite cute.
Little man, manny, bubby, brother are a few of our enduring terms to get your attention. I think Bubby is the favorite. Even your sister will say "It okay Bubby" when she hears you cry. She is still completely in love with you but hates sharing with you. Maybe in a few months that will change when you decide you want a toy bad enough but for now, you share very well.
You love your Baby Einstein Bouncer and Play Mat just like Madison did. Thank goodness Great Grandma Benson invested in those! You love the song Twinkle, Twinkle the best especially sung by your mommy.
I love you handsome boy. You are our joy every day. I live for you laughter, smiles and general conversation ;)
