Joey is 4 months old!

I can't hardly believe that Joey is already 4 months old! Where does the time go?! I took him to his 4 month well baby visit and he now weighs 18 pounds 1.5 ounces and measures 26 3/4 inches. He is 97th percentile on all measurements and is on average about as big as a 7 month old - guess the brestmilk is doing good for him! And what a mild and sweet tempered baby he is so far...loves to watch Owen play, tracks him all over the room and smiles. Sleeping in his crib now from 7 or 8 until 12 to 2 - on average about 6 hours a night. Then he comes to bed with momma, nurses and goes right back to sleep...sigh. Such a cuddle puppy at night - I love to cuddle with him! He just learned how to grab at a toy that's being dangled in front of him - he snatches it up and brings it directly to him mouth (so it already begins!) He really is a lot of fun and Owen has decided that he's not going to give him up - he tells people that Joey lives at our house and that he's Joey's big brother. So proud! We really are blessed beyond all belief!

What a cutie he is. I cannot believe how big he is! That's just how you make them! Glad that he's not colicy anymore. That is tough but as you know it comes and goes and you forget. Tell Owen hi and give him a big kiss from me!:)
