Our little who started it all is 4 months old as of the 1st! I honestly can't believe it, where does the time go? It's nearly been a year since I found out I was expecting this jellybean & it feels as if it was just yesterday.
He's growing & learning so much daily. Learning how to giggle more often; he's a bucket of smiles daily (although he has very serious moments).
He loves looking around & taking it all in, it's absolutely adorable. He also enjoys the mirror thoroughly; playing with his toys & with us. He's grown an inch and gained 9oz this past month! Hes ready for food, but were personally waiting untill he is 6 months to make that big step.
He knows how to pose for the camera & usually stares right into the lense if he isn't distracted. He hates hiccups too, like so damned much. We're still co sleeping but that's okay, we'll transition him to his crib when we're both ready. He's also taking formula when my supply is low which is great! Anything that fills him up he seems to adore, he eats for comfort (as I've found this time afterward his second set of vaccines).
He took them pretty well actually, with a bit of distraction & food it turned out better than I thought; with his sense of touch being more sensitive. The second & third prick is what really got him, but a bottle in his mouth after & he was divine.
It's the afterward of this set that is really affecting us (& why this blog post is so behind). Last vaccines there was no reaction at all. Because one of the vaxx' he got was live; he hasn't been feeling too hot. A bit of a cough, a fever & just being super fussy is getting to him. Plus he's eating twice as much as usual so my supply isn't keeping up, but thank god for formula & him taking it so well.
He's 75th percentile for height & 25th for weight, a tall fit man just like his parents; hahaha. I just honestly can't believe day by day. Every day (literally) he's learning more, noticing more & enjoying the hell out of it. It warms my heart dearly; I've never been so proud of a little being in my life.
I'm so excited for his first christmas, although he won't understand, he'll love the lights & I love any excuse to get some extra things I want for him. A year ago from today, I never would've guessed I would be spending my first christmas as a family living in 'suburbia', but I couldn't be happier.
It's crazy how much Knox' personality is developing & how he's already like we were as kids; be still my heart. I just want him little forever. Stop growing Knox! Just kidding; but seriously. I'm going to cry so much every year he grows. But that's what #mumlife is about, right?
