Happy 4 months!

Mitchell turned 4 months old last Friday. The past month has been a time of growth and change for our sweet boy.  He weighs 17lbs 7oz. and is 25.5 inches long!  He’s getting so big and so busy.  He always seems to be moving – his arms and legs never stop!  He’s learned to roll over (mostly from back to belly) and he can scoot himself in circles.  He loves to coo and ‘talk’ to us.  He still loves to stare at faces.  He’s mesmerized by them and you can see that he is studying you when he’s watching you.  His little eyebrows will furrow or raise (probably cause he’s wondering why I’m making such silly faces at him).  He’s ticklish, especially under his chin and around his collar bone.  His little giggle is precious!  And his smile  - it’s just about the cutest thing I’ve ever seen.  Mitch adores his big sister.  He’ll watch her as she runs around the room and light up when she talks to him.  It’s no wonder he loves her since Evie is has been an amazing big sister so far.  She is so loving and sweet to Mitch, and she delights in making him happy.  The other day she told me “Mama I love Baby Mitchell.  He’s my best friend”.  I’m going to remind her of those words when he gets a little bigger and starts getting into her stuff!

 While I’m sad that time is passing so quickly, I’m excited about Mitch being 4 months.  This time is one of my favorites – when his little personality will really start to shine.  WE love our little boy so much and we can’t wait to see what the next month brings!
