Anson is 4 months old!

Baby Anson is 4 months old today! He celebrated by sleeping fabulously last night - 7:30PM to 5:30AM straight through. Then he went back to sleep for 2 more hours. Keep it up A!

At 4 months he is doing very well. He is an extremely happy and mellow baby. He is nice and chunky (about 14.5 pounds - we'll know for sure next week) and seems very healthy. He LOVES to eat and so far is still just nursing. Some solid food will be in his near future (just rice cereal for now). He is wearing 3-6 month clothes but some are already too short for him. He seems quite long! He is rolling both ways now (though he doesn't do it all the time), smiles almost constantly, and is starting to laugh quite a bit now. He is just starting to grab at and sometimes even hold toys. He also seems to REALLY want to sit on his own, though it will be a little while before he is capable of that. He loves when we sing to him and play little games (like bicycling his legs).

Most nights he sleeps from about 7:30PM-6:30AM and only wakes once to nurse. Then he goes back to sleep for about another hour. Naps continue to be a bit all over the place, though he seems to be doing better lately.

Here is a picture of the little guy - hanging out and smiling - what he normally does.
