16 weeks






My original plan was to update my blog with all the missing posts from the past 10 weeks, but let's face it. That's impossible. My baby boy has had way too many little milestones and cute things to update a million blog posts! So my little resolution will be to update this now WEEKLY! That's much more doable. I've been avoiding updating thinking of the millions of pictures and things I need to include! Sooo...let's focus on what Brody is doing NOW!:)

At 16 weeks:

Brody is sleeping anywhere from 8-9:30 PM until 6-7:30 AM. Every now and then I will get a 5am wake up call, but it's rare. He is rolling from front to back...though he loves being on his belly and his back, so he doesn't really feel the need to do it much. He absolutely LOVES: cartoons, mommy singing, his baby einstein bouncer/jumper, his nana and pawpaw's house and all the toys there, sitting like a big boy in his bumbo chair, basically anything on the tv, sucking his thumb and chewing his fingers, people blowing on his belly, and peekaboo.

That said, he loves a lot more, but those are the main things. He desperately wants to sit up and bring his feet to his mouth, but he can't just yet and gets so frustrated! Sitting up will be a while, but he so wants to! As far as weight and height go, his 4 month checkup is the 25th, so we will know in just a few weeks! At 9 weeks Brody was 13lbs 8oz and 23 inches long. He was in the 95th percentile for weight, 75th for height, and 75th for head size. Such a sweet, chubby, happy baby!!!

In the beginning...I absolutely loved him more than life, but it is true that they just keep getting better. He is SO much fun now. I love hearing the cackling laugh, seeing his big gummy smiles, and hearing him make his funny noises. He has just really learned how to shriek and squeal...and boy is he LOVING IT!!! I love his personality. He and Ella have so many similarities as far as personality that I'm seeing!

Well, that's it for now. I'll update SOON!:)
