All About Wesley: 4 months old

Wow! Our little boy is growing so fast! Happy 4 months, Wesley!


We are truly seeing new things from Wesley every day right now - it is so much fun! Here are some fun facts about Wesley right now:

 - He has two teeth that came in a couple weeks ago: his front teeth on the bottom. He is working on lots more, so he is currently a drool machine!
- Wesley is SO close to rolling from back to tummy, but still doesn't like to use his arms when playing on his tummy. We keep working on it. It will come!
 - He is discovering new sounds all the time and is very vocal! Last week, his favorite sound was a high-pitched scream. As you can probably guess, this was our favorite...
 - Blowing bubbles is one of Wesley's other newly discovered skills. All the drool he makes these days makes blowing bubbles that much easier.
 - Wesley now plays with both hands together and can bring toys to his mouth. He loves exploring his hands, with or without a toy. He can even hold his own teething toys now sometimes!


 - While not a true baby giggle quite yet, we definitely get big smiles and simple laughs more and more often! Wesley found my animal sounds hilarious while singing Old McDonald the other day.


 - While he is definitely still not sleeping through the night, having just 1 night-time feeding is becoming more normal. Wesley has also moved from his bassinet to his crib. He wakes up happy as a clam most mornings between 5:30 and 6:30am!
 - Wesley loves to sit and stand with assistance, and sometimes doesn't want to lay down! He is so active and enjoying exploring lots of new ways to move.


We are all moved into our new house and getting settled. We are loving it here already, despite the storms this week that have taken out 3 trees! We are just thankful to have trees at all! I will post some more about the move and house soon! Happy summer, everyone! Go have an adventure!
