4 months!

Jonas turned 4 months old the day after Thanksgiving. I can't believe it's only been 4 months. He seems to have been a part of this family for much longer. He has brought so much joy to our home. It has been fun to watch his siblings interact with him. There is a greater unity in our family because of his presence. During this past month, his personality has come alive even more! He is definitely more vocal. He has a squeal that can call all the dogs in a one-mile radius. He will laugh when you tickle him and he smiles all the time. He has started to reach for and grab his toys...and anything else he can! My earrings and hair are no longer safe! He still isn't incredibly fond of tummy time, but he can roll from his belly to his back and his back to his side. He is pretty good about sitting up with assistance too. He loves playing with his brothers and Dad...especially when his dad throws him around. It gives me a heart attack but Jonas loves it. Jonas is no 14.3 lbs (23%) and 28.5 inches long (78%). He took a drastic jump in height over the last month, but remains pretty steady in his weight. He has started bottle feedings and is doing well with that. He is easy to put to sleep and easy to console when upset. We feel very lucky to have such an easy-going baby. I just hope he stays that way! Our love for him grows more and more each day. We are excited to see what new adventures lie ahead in the next month.
