Graham - 4 months young

 

By Mandy

 

Our little Graham is now 4 months old.  We are really starting to see his personality come through and we love him.  He is silly, happy, curious, intense, and opinionated.  He has also seemed to have found his voice.  He will yell very loud in protest especially when I start to walk him down the hall towards his bedroom.  He picked this up from his friend Jack.  Seriously, we visited Jack one day (a darling little baby that knows how to use his voice) and then Graham started to yell that very same day. 

 

We went to Graham's doctors appointment.  He was officially 15 pounds and 5 ounces and nearly 24 inches.  The nurse told me that he was only in the tenth percentile.  I looked it up and he is in the 50th for weight and 45th for height.  I am taking this a little personally and should probably stop worrying about his growth but it is so darn hard.  Other than that the appointment went well.  He does have some eczema so Mandy is going to be trying a no dairy diet.  Ugh.  

 

Some of Graham's favorite things:

 

Mr.Monekyman

His monkey friend was given to Graham from Trent's office colleague.  In fact, he gave us two of them at different times so we are really pushing this monkey to be Graham's lovey.  So far they have hit it off nicely.  Graham likes to bite him and Monkeyman does not mind.

 

 

Bowties. 

Okay maybe he does not love the bowtie but he does look darn cute in them.  This picture does show that the little guy is starting to blow spit bubbles and is drooling all over the place. 

 

 

 

 

 

Trent call this picture "sad clown"

 

Daddy and mommy

He does love us...at least that is what we think all those smiles in our direction mean.  He is such a happy guy. All he wants to do is smile and talk with us.  Often he will stop eating and just look up and smile.  Heart melted.  He likes when daddy gets in his little play gym with him and laughs.  This causes Graham to laugh and laugh and laugh.  When we try something new, we have to laugh first so Graham will see that it is something fun. 

 

 

 

 

 

Loves to clap his hands together

 

 

Looking so darn cute

One Sunday I remembered that I had this tag and so I put it on him to surprise Trent.  He looked so cute in it.  Like a little man.

 



 

 

Other favorites:  Standing up, jumping up and down, playing with rings, sitting up ( he is trying really hard to stay up but flops over), the song Teach me to Walk, and rough housed.

 

Dislikes:  binkies, the taste of his own hands, the spoon, the carseat, going to bed.
