4 months old





This is Zachary on the day he turned 4 months old. He is getting to be such a big boy. His adjusted age is 2 months now. He smiles quite often and loves to coo and "talk" with us. He is moving around a lot more these days, lifting his legs, rolling from side to side. I really think he recognizes mom and dad's voices and turns toward us when we are talking to him. We are still working on those neck muscles. This week he even giggled for the first time! A sound that truly is a song sent from heaven above! Zachary has remained healthy and we continue to be thankful for this. Just this week he has also been sleeping even longer, something I love dearly. 4 nights in a row he has slept for about 6-7 hours straight, and this mom feels like a different woman. We are getting our baby boy baptized on Mother's day (isn't that a sweet day for me?). For now we continue to watch as the sibling love continues to develop into something wonderful as Zachary is really paying more attention to the chaos around him. We have a couple more weeks before we go for a well-check with Dr. Mike. Then we can officially see how much he weighs. I weighed him on our home scale this week and it read 10 pounds. We will see how accurate that is, although I'd guess it is pretty close. What a blessing to have all my children healthy and loving one another!!!!
