We can't believe our little man is 4 months old already! He has definitely found his voice and is cooing like crazy..he makes this one sound all the time that sounds like 'Whoa!'. It cracks us up. He loves to lay on his back and grab his toes...he also 'stands' on our laps with very minimal support...he'll be walking any day now :) We read books every day as we have since the beginning..but now he actually looks at the pages and smiles at them. He is figuring out his exersaucer quickly...we're looking forward to that being a nice distraction while we eat dinner! He gave us one 10 hour night recently and it was heaven! Other than that, sleep in general continues to be a challenge in our house, but as long as he keeps growing and smiling, we won't complain too much (well, I'm not making promises). I don't think any of the pictures here do justice to the color of his eyes, but they are a gorgeous dark blue...I know, I know, they could still change. But I'm hoping he ends up with his Mama J's (my mom) eyes...
All bundled up for a stroll out in the cold...
Such a flirt already...getting to know his buddy Merritt Risher
One of Jackson's many funny faces these days...oh how we love to blow bubbles!
Who would want to ride in a stroller when Daddy's chest is so much more comfy...
One of our favorite games...he loves to have his cheeks 'gobbled'..he squeals every time. Kind of a silly picture, I know...but what else do stay at home Moms do during the day than try to make their little ones laugh and capture it on film?? :)
The mess begins! At Jackson's 4 month check up, our pediatrician gave us the green light to try solids...I'm thinking he's pretty liberal, since unlike many of the books say, he said it was fine to try any fruits, veggies or cereals at this point. Man has this been fun...and messy :)
This was actually BEFORE the doc appt...we got a wild hair (or should I say Pablo finally convinced his ever-so-cautious-and-paranoid wife to give it a go) and gave him a little mushed up banana...he loved it!!
Sweet potatoes!
Rice cereal...although, this very happy face is deceiving..Daddy was just making him smile here...he isn't such a fan of the rice cereal.
His favorite so far...pears!
The 4 month photo shoot wasn't nearly as successful as last months...I tried 2 different days, pulling out all the stops to get a smile..and while I got a few, I failed to catch one on film. Our big boy was 15lbs 1oz and 25" long...in the 50th percentile for both. He's growing so fast and certainly keeping us on our toes!

Holy Moly! He's a different kid! JP looks so big- especially in the picture of Pablo holding him. I loved all of these, but my favorite might be the cheek gobbling. So cute. He has gorgeous eyes and incredible eye lashes! I can NOT wait to see him!!!! Love you...
Wow, Jackson is so cute and so fun! Love the bundled-up look. It's very fun to read about his milestones because Walker is going through the same ones at nearly the same time. I'm jealous that your DR said solids are cool for now. Ours said we should wait until a little later, but you may have inspired us to try some anyways! The bubble-blowing and standing on your lap is VERY familiar! He looks so happy!! We really want to meet the little man! Love yall!
