Four Months


My sweet angel was four months old on February 15. Where have the last four months gone! I can't believe he is a third of the way through his first year. It's bringing tears to my eyes typing it out right now!

This last month has been SO fun, though. He's growing into a happy, happy boy! Griffin, your smile is one of the brightest lights in my life! Here's what you did during your third month:
- rolled over back to tummy
- cut TWO teeth! (bottom)
- laughed for the first time. Your Yogi was bouncing you on his bed and you thought it was great!
- tried food! Yummy, yummy organic brown rice! ;)
- sleeping 10-11 hours at a time. Thanks, Buddy!
- went from a 5 ounce bottle to an 8 ounce bottle!
- You love playing on the floor on you back or tummy, walking around with mommy or daddy (daddy especially because he takes you outside) in the Baby Bjourne, going to Aunt Rachel's, BOUNCING, standing up (with help), and you are really starting to like bathtime!
- you got your first taste of ice cream with your Yogi
- you had your first snow this month!

And these were your stats at the doctor's office:
Weight: 15 pounds 12 ounces, 50th percentile
Length: 25 and 3/4 inches, 75th percentile
Head circumference: I know it was the 75th percentile but I don't remember the centimeters off the top of my head. It will be you the baby book. : /

We love you so much Griffin and I think you should know that your Dad and I pray with you every night. Sometimes your daddy prays and sometimes I do. We pray for all kinds of things for you, but these are some of the things we pray for you every night:
- for you to grow in wisdom and stature like Jesus did
- for God to keep your crib safe and protect you from the Evil One and any plans he may have against you
- we claim your heart, soul, mind, and strength for the Lord in the name of Jesus Christ
- we pray for you to dream big dreams
- we pray for you to sleep soundly
- we pray for you to know our love, and more importantly your Heavenly Father's love
- for your smile and laugh to bring others joy all the days of your life
- and we THANK God for the perfect blessing you are to us!

Enjoy the pictures!

This next one is you and your Daddy doing one of your favorite things:

Your first taste of food!

Sometimes you get really sleepy after you eat, too!


Love you, Boogi!

  1. If it weren't for his mama's beautiful eyes he would look just like a clone of his daddy! I love it! God has blessed Griffin with an amazing Mom, Lyd. I am so proud of you.
