4th Trimester is over!

Can you believe 4 months have passed since our Russell was born? We're officially through the 4th trimester and our little guy is such a joy. His first months have been very contrasting to Annalise's. She cried, he sleeps. She squeaked, he stares. She gurgled, he coos. She pooped, he REALLY poops.

Here are a few things about him (more a record for T & I to remember)
-He loves to ride in Tracy's wraps
-Desires attention and will cry if you leave his sight
-Loves when Annalise plays with him
-Is starting to laugh (when you tickle his tummy or bounce him up/down)
-Drools....a.....TON.
-Doesn't eat very long
-Has a short temper (goes from calm to upset very quickly)
-Gets a lot of zits
-LOVES, LOVES, LOVES baths
-Is getting too fat for his bathtub
-Likes to suck on his hands
-Very smiley and likes to cuddle
-Likes sleeping with us
-Goes to bed at 7:30-8. Wakes at 9 and Midnight to feed.
-Still waking up a few times at night.
-Doesn't use the baby swing at all.

Here are some stats & pics from his 4 month checkup:
-25" tall (55%)
-17lb 0.2oz (87%)
-43.2 cm head circumference (76%)

Here are some statthings he's doing now.
