October

So...sad story. My phone died. Like randomly gave out on me. So that means A LOT of lost pictures
:(  Luckily I posted a few on FB and instagram so I have those. But in that time Halden turned 4 months!! He's getting huge. Especially when compared to newborns. At his 4 month appointment we found that he is definitely long and skinny!! 26th percentile for weight and 59th percentile for length. And then he has a big old noggin in the 72nd percentile. His head has definitely grown the most!! Halden is starting to grow out of his 0-3's and is moving into the 3-6 month clothes. This kid still HATES tummy time. He's started being okay for about the first 10 seconds...then starts screaming. So, improvement. And the doctor says he has the strength that their looking for so that's good!! When he "rolls" he gets to his side and then gets stuck. But he's fine with that because he can twist his body enough to see or hold whatever it was that made him roll.

 He loves standing more than anything. He has started being a very messy eater and almost always ends up with milk all over his face. We gave him a little bit of cereal for his 4 month birthday and he was okay with it, but not quite sure how to swallow it. He mostly loves the spoon. We also tried a bit of banana...NOT a fan. His sleeping schedule has become a little less ideal...sometimes he wakes up. But I am so not complaining because if he does, it's usually only once a night. The hardest part is transferring him from nursing/rocking to the crib. We started heating up his place in the crib with a heating pad and it is working SO good. His teeth still haven't come in, but they still give him blister like things on his gums, so a bit of Tylenol takes care of it quickly if it causes him to get too fussy. And sometimes they cause him to drool...a lot. Of course he's like any other baby and puts EVERYTHING in his mouth. And his toys...he loves toys. he'll grab on to anything and just shake it around. We got him an exersaucer and he loves standing and playing.

This month Tyler went hunting but didn't get anything :( It was kind of a bummer! But at least I don't have to worry about trying to cook it! haha The first weekend he went, Halden and I went down to Lehi and we canned some cherries for the first time ever (turned out SO good) and we made quiet books! I think they turned out way cute. Charli, my mom and I spent all day Friday and Saturday cutting them out and sewing them and we almost got done...almost.
