Cooper Thomas: Four Months

My sweet, still not sleeping, lil Cooper! You had a very busy month and seemed to learn lots of new things. You are a pro at grabbing toys (you love your playmat), you started rolling over both ways, and you love to scoot now with your face smooshed on the ground. We are in trouble when you become mobile because you just want to go go go! You have very strong legs like your brother did and used them to almost push yourself off the changing pad more than once...ok like 5 times! You are now a tummy sleeper, just like your brother too, that is when you decide to sleep. You still wake up 3-4 times at night which makes for one tired momma! You seem to be catching on to naps a little better and you can put yourself to sleep (for bedtime too) and just in the last couple days you have done a couple 2 hour naps! Schedules are out the question for you but that's ok because you are a pretty easy going baby. You smile and giggle ALL THE TIME and you think it's hilarious when we change your clothes. But my favorite thing has been you watching your brother with the biggest grin. You love your brother already and I can only imagine you guys being the best of friends.

Mommy still thinks you aren't gaining enough weight and the doctor said he would like to see more, but he isn't concerned yet. You bumped up to the 75% in height but dropped to the 15% in weight. The doctor gave us a few tips, so we will start there!

Birth: 6lbs 11.1oz and 19.5in

Leaving Hospital: 6lbs 3.9oz

Five Days: 6lbs 10oz

Two Weeks: 7lbs 10.5oz and 20in
One Month: ~9lbs and 21in
Two Months: 11lbs and 23in
Four Months: 13lbs 4oz and 25 1/2in

We love you so much Cooper and you absolutely make our family complete! You already have second child syndrome as mommy doesn't take near as many pictures of you. She will try her hardest to be better next month!
