Trip months 2-5
This little guy has grown soo much in the last few months!! He has definitely put on a few lbs since then!! At Trips 4 month check up he weighed 19.6 lbs (90%) and was about (80%) for length. Head circumference was about 90% as well. We have one big boy on our hands! I want to snuggle him like he's still a tiny baby but it's so hard when you hold him and his legs are already so long that they are already resting on the couch! Trip is definitely my load back little boy. He loves to be held, smiles for most of the day, rarely ever fusses unless he is hungry or tired, and just an extremely happy baby!! I can take him in the stroller to target for 45 minutes and not hear a sound from him! It is wonderful and much needed! However, this guy does NOT sleep! He is usually up about 2 times during the night wanting his paci. Ugh! We finally eliminated the 4am feeding a few weeks ago so that has helped but around 5 am he is usually up for good and I just plug a paci in his mouth every 30 minutes until 7 am and feed him then. We usually put him to bed about 8:30 and have also just stopped the dream feed at 10. He also refuses to sleep in his crib, we have put him back in the rock in sleep in a desperate attempt to get some sleep. He sleeps ok in the crib but loves to sleep on his stomach and will wake up at times screaming due to gas bubbles so the rock in sleep is much easier!! Too bad he is getting way to big for it! We started Trip on rice a little after turning 4 months, and have recently introduced green beans, sweet potatoes, and squash. And shockingly the only one he likes is green beans! Who would have thought! All of that to say that we love this little guy and his big sisters just can't get enough of him! They argue over who he looked at last, and who's turn it is to make him laugh and who gets to hug him next. They LOVE this buddy! He is their real life baby doll. We are so thankful that God has chosen to bless us with this new life and so thankful for the opportunity to raise him up to know and love Christ Jesus.
