Cole at Four Months

Cole turned four months old last week. He is now a strapping 26" long and 17 pounds 5 ounces. His doctor said that if he were one of one hundred random babies his age, he'd be the biggest. By quite a bit. That's my boy!

Here are a few of Cole's current hobbies:
- Spitting up on mom. Or dad. But mostly mom.
- Staring at his brothers, and wiggling with glee while watching them play.
- Staring like a deer caught in headlights when the camera is out.
- Cooing and gooing. Shrieking and laughing and generally making his presence known.
- Eating. And eating. And eating some more. He is apparently storing up for winter. (Solids are in the near future, thank heaven!)
- Sleeping from 8pm to 6:30am. GOOD BOY!!!
- Looking at himself in the mirror.
- Grabbing things. Well, trying to. He's getting better. It's only a matter of time when I drop my guard and he makes a lunge for the Sacrament tray at church.
- Sticking out his tongue. And licking things. Always with the licking!
- Wiggling. All. The. Time. When eating. When getting a diaper change. When being held. When not being held. But not when sleeping. That's only time this boy holds still.
- Chewing on mommy's shoulder.
- Chewing on his hands. All. The. Time. (See wiggling reference.) Only, he also chews on them in his sleep. I've seen it.
- Generally looking quite adorable.
