Brooks-4 mos

Stats: 15 lbs, 10 oz (50%) 25.5 in (68%)

Still the chillest, happiest baby. Nurses every 3 hours during day. Sometimes gets a 3-4 oz bottle on top of nursing at night.  During this month would wake up around 3-4 to eat. We moved him to crib and this past weekend started unswaddling, prepared for cry it out...and for 5 nights straight sweet baby has slept over 12 hours. No crying. Even when he wakes up he just smiles or sucks thumb in crib. Is crazy but Ill take it. I always thought people were lying when they said their babies slept through night sans sleep training but nope. I have one of those babies and it's  glorious. 

He gives the biggest grins and loves to look at faces. Loves to be held and be outside. Hates his carseat but still naps in his car seat thank goodness! Discovering thumb sucking and still inconsistent but when he finds his thumb it brings comfort!

My sweet Brooksie,
Mommy loves our 1-1 time on tues/thurs. Many times we get home from dropping off brothers and we just sit and smile at each other, then watch Kathie Lee and Hoda :). I also love that you're sleeping in crib and I get some sweet snuggles with you rocking before bedtime. You no longer will fall asleep on me but want to be left alone in your crib (or rocked in car seat). You discovered yor thumb and think that will start to be more of your comfort. Love your easygoing happy personality to the moon and back sweet baby!

Snow Days!





Brooks-3 mos



Eat-every 3-4 hours. Will get 4 oz bottle occasionally but mostly nursing in 8-10 mins.

Sleep-still in rock n play, hoping to move to crib soon but Isaac majorly regressing and Brooks doing awesome in rnp--I gotta have only 1 sleep struggler at a time. Naps 3-4x/day, 1 solid 3ish hour and the others 30 mins-1 hour. Still swaddled for long nap and nighttime.

Play-so chill and happy. Super smiley and loves to sit up and watch his crazy brothers. Doesn't like being left on back--like bumbo, highchair, or mamas arms. Rolls from tummy to back occasionally. Lots of coos!
