4 on the Floor

Happy Four Months Sawyer!



You are rolling over front to back and back to front now (although not consistently)
Your smiles melt my heart. 
You have gotten really chatty and some days you babble the entire time you are awake.
Your favorite thing to do is stand up followed by put anything you can hold onto in your mouth.
You had your 4 month check up and you are 15 lbs and 25 inches!
We sometimes call you Donald Trump because your hair is so long on top and you've lost it everywhere else so it flops over like a toupee. 
You've had your first cold and were the happiest sick baby I've ever seen!
You are still waking up a lot at night but you've started to nap more consistently. 
You like watching your doggies but don't like them to come too close.
You still snuggle into my neck when you're extra tired at night.
You drink 5.5oz of milk when you get a bottle. That's 2 more ounces than the last time your Daddy gave you a bottle!

All (S)He Wants to Do is Dance

Sawyer has shown an interest in music and dancing and gets really excited when one or the other is happening. Our friend Derrell (after whom Sawyer is named) was over the other night and they were dancing on the changing table. I only caught the tail end on video but the way he's laughing at the beginning of the video was the way he was squealing for a good 5 minutes. It was so cute to watch.

Let it Snow, Let it Snow, Let it Snow!

SNOW DAY! We had a cold snowy day two weeks ago. It was cold and rainy with flurries intermixed all day long. We snuggled on the couch and watched movies and I studied for a midterm but by late afternoon the snow was coming down a lot! We got an inch or so in less than 30 minutes. By the time we got our act together it was too dark for outside pictures but as soon as everyone was up Sunday morning we got dressed and went outside to document Sawyer's first snow day. This bear outfit was a hand-me-down from our friends the W's. Their son was born in June so he never wore it. Sawyer looked precious bundled up in it for our pictures.  He didn't much like being outside. It was COLD and BRIGHT! Hopefully that trend won't continue. We want him to love the outdoors as much as we do!

Let the Circle Be Unbroken

This is Megan.  15 years ago, in August of 1998, I started babysitting for her family. She was about 6 months old. A few weeks ago, Megan, now 15, along with her older sister Ashley, kept Sawyer (almost 6 months old) while I took a training class at UGA. It baffles me and warms my heart that this beautiful baby girl grew up to be a beautiful young woman who is now feeling the same thing about my baby boy that I did about her when I was 15. I feel as though I am a part of their family and the girls have been involved in every major event in my life. When Carey and I got engaged, their mom Lisa was the third person I called (after my mom and sister). We have celebrated weddings (mine), graduations ( me from high school and college, Kaitlyn from high school, and Ashley from high school), dance performances, count less game nights,  deaths, and new life. They drove up to see me when Sawyer was 2 weeks old and helped me navigate the early fuzzy days of motherhood. I am so t...
