Four Months Old

Today, my little man, William Joseph, turned four months old. The last four months have been full of ups and downs, but I just can't believe how much richer my life is since he's joined us.

A few highlights of his first four months:
1. We met Will fact to face on February 5th; he weighed a hefty 8 lbs, 4 oz.
2. He came out looking JUST like his Daddy, with the faux-hawk and all, but now looks more like Mommy.
3. At two weeks old, Will was admitted to the hospital for 10 days for a kidney infection, which turned out to be the result of severe kidney reflux.
4. Will takes antibiotics daily to keep from getting another infection.
5. Will is a VERY healthy little guy, weighing almost as much as his 20 month old sister.
6. Will can roll from his front to his back.
7. Will can roll from his back to his front.
8. He smiles and his whole face lights up.
9. His giggle is infectious.
10. He only has eyes for his Mama.
11. Will loves his caterpillar toy, and has started to grab it and bring it to his mouth.
12. Will spits up more than any baby I've ever met.
13. Will eats more than any baby I've ever met.
14. He has the Brown booty and the Cramer thighs...poor kid.
15. He recently found his feet and loves to play with them.
16. Much of Will's baby hair has fallen out...he's just left with a permanent mohawk.
17. He LOVES the water and to soak in the bath.
18. He had a swollen eye at around three months that scared me half to death...it turned out to be a blocked tear duct.

The list could endlessly go on. I'm constantly amazed by my little man. He's rolly polly, cuddly, adorable, sweet, and we are so blessed that he is a part of our family.
