Cooper - Month 4

My sweet handsome little boy!

You have grown so talkative and beautiful this past month. Mommy loves to hear your coo, gurgle, and giggle. Your eyes just light up so bright when you see your parents, and you smile so beautifully big. You love to be on your changing table, and you especially love it when you're completely naked! You just kick and squirm and giggle and think its so fun to have no clothes on :)

You've got your Daddy's very sensitive skin, and Mommy has tried so hard to find a lotion, cream, or soap that will help it. You've got very dry skin, and what Mommy thinks is eczema, although she's no doctor ;)

You're still sleeping like a champ, and I could not be more grateful for that. You do, however, still sleep in your port-a-crib in Mommy & Daddy's room because I am still a little hesitant to be a whole room away from you! Your nursery is almost finished, and when it is, I promise I'll let you sleep in there all by yourself.

You are now an accomplished flyer, as you took your first flight to Colorado! You slept the whole way, and impressed the otherwise grumpy lady next to you.

You are still rolling from your back to your tummy, but aren't really interested in being on your tummy for too long.

You carry on conversations with us, and I love to hear your voice. You have become much more vocal, and you've also cranked up the volume quite a bit, just to be sure you're being heard!

You're splashing, and trying so hard to sit up straight in the bath tub, instead of the reclined position the infant tub wants you to do. So you pretty much do a V-Up the whole time you're in the tub.

You're grabbing things and bringing them to your mouth now, and you've almost discovered your feet! You're still sucking your thumb, and Mommy is still hoping you'll forget about it soon.

You Skyped with MomMom, and thought she was pretty funny looking on the computer screen. You're starting to notice Sadie walking around, and I think you're not too sure what she is. You're definitely not too sure when she licks your face.

My favorite part of the day is waking up to your bright eyes and smile in the morning. You are the happiest then, although you'll always smile for me, the morning smiles are by far, the best.

You've met a lot of Mommy's friends in Colorado, and they all love you so much already. You are so blessed to have so many wonderful people in your life!

You have become so squirmy and wiggly. I love watching you twist and turn, except when I'm trying to change your diaper or get you dressed. One of your favorite places is on the changing table, and especially when you're butt naked!

You've also become very wiggly while nursing. I can only imagine how this will get worse as you grow. You're a mover and a shaker, and I wouldn't be surprised if you start crawling soon!

Mommy and Daddy finally finished your nursery, and you have slept in your big boy bed crib for all naps and at night time for the past two days. You are such a wonderful sleeper, and we are so blessed.

We love you, Cooper Graham!
