Pierce is 4 months!

Wow...can we say time flies?!!  My baby boy is 4 months old!  A few things about Pierce-y (Parker calls him "Piercey").  His smile is contagious!!  He can make my worst day turn around with just his smile.  He also loves to talk!  If I am talking he will out "coo" me to get attention :) Pierce loves to be in the same room where the action is, sleeps in his swing or in the floor for nap time, sleeps 9-10 hours at night (happy mamma!), spits up all the time, and rolled over for the first time (stomach to back) on his 4 month birthday!
 Soon we will start rice cereal, so we decided to get him used to sitting at the dinner table with us!
I think he is already starting to teethe, poor baby.  He always has his hands or blanket in his mouth.  Good thing they put Highlands teething tablets back on the shelf!
Oh his eyes!  I know I am his Mamma and I am prejudice but his eyes are just beautiful!  They probably will work against me when he is in trouble and bats them at me!
This is how things really are when trying to take a picture of both of them.  The fighting has already started...I am in trouble!
The comparison picture!  I see more similarities this month than prior months...
I thought Pierce was a bigger baby but this picture shows otherwise! Parker and his fat cheeks...love it!
Pierce went to the doctor today and he weighs 16.6lbs (75%) and is 27 inches long (95%)!  He is a growing boy!

Silly Boys

My 2 sweet boys!
Parker-27 months
 Pierce-3 months 4 weeks

Parker just lets go when he is done holding Pierce.  Definitely something we need to work on :)  This is him not interested in holding his brother what so ever! Pierce is saying "hey"! Ha!

The Little Things about Parker

Parker is one funny little guy!  He has his own way of doing things and is definitely becoming more independent!  Lately, he enjoys making a pallet by his door when it's his bedtime.  We think he likes being able to see us and hear us as he drifts off to sleep.  We don't argue with him because he does lay down and eventually falls asleep.  We then move him to his bed before we go to sleep and he is good for the rest of the night.  I love how he makes his pallets just perfect ;)



Some of you found out about this on facebook but I just had to blog about it so I would forever remember.  I came home from work one day and he literally had on 10 items of clothing on his bottom!  I couldn't stop laughing because he couldn't even move.  He just kept on handing my Mom more underwear to put on him. Obvious he thought it was funny too!
Here is is barely even sitting down...I took a picture of each layer as he took them off but obviously that would take up a lot of space on the blog :)  The picture below is  everything minus the diaper.  Silly boy!
This month we moved Parker to his big boy seat at the dinner table.  It makes me sad all the "big boy" changes we have had to make because it makes me realize just how big his getting.  We drove through Chick fil A's drive thru to get him his favorite food...nuggets!  All I had to do was pull in the parking lot and he screamed "Nuggets!"  A boy after my own heart...loves his Chick fil A!
Aunt Heather gave Parker his first bubble bath bottle when Pierce was born.  Well the first time we used it he got bubbles in his eyes so it took him awhile to want bubbles again.  Now...he askes for bubbles every night!  Good thing...he is entertained for at least 30 minutes.  Bad thing...he doesn't want to share his bath with his brother. Ha!
Parker is really growing into a smart, handsome little boy.  He says new words every day and his new thing now is singing songs.  It just melts my heart to hear him sing "Jesus loves Me"!  We love you Parker more than you will ever know and so does Jesus!:)
