Baby Kyle's growing up...

I know...it's been forever and a day since I posted, but in my defense, Kyle just began taking regular naps everyday, so I've just started being able to do a few of the things I used to do prior to the little guy's arrival!

First of all, Kyle is 4 1/2 months now and working towards weighing an impressive 18 lbs! His hair is still fairly blond and those blue eyes of his look like they're going to stay that way. He sits up pretty steadily now, rolls over, and just popped his first tooth through (bottom left) last week. He's been sleeping in his crib for most of the night (don't confuse this with sleeping through the night), but still prefers the swing for napping during the daytime. One of the coolest things he figured out last week was how to put his pacifier in his mouth all by himself...the correct way!

Kyle is so observant and just wants to go, go, go! It seems that he learns something new everyday and totally amazes us with what he figures out! His favorite people are other babies and he's started to exhibit some of the "stranger danger" attitudes that babies his age go through (not wanting to go to other people as easily as he used to). However, in Kyle's defense, he has been a jewel of a baby in the nursery at church...we just started trying him out going to the nursery around Christmas time and he's often "the best baby in here" according to the workers!

We tried some rice cereal a week or two ago, but his body decided it wasn't quite time to work on solids by the looks of the projectile spit up he produced!

Ah well, he's up from his nap...I'll work on another update sooon...

P.S.-For all those grandparents who like to cruise through the baby section every time they're at the store, we're looking for size 18 month clothes now (for the summer/fall) and size 3 diapers!
