The Van Heules: Jackson is 4 months old!

My baby is getting so big! I can't believe he is 4 months old!

Jackson:

Wears size 2 diapers. They fit better now!
Wears some 3 month clothes, but mostly 6 month.
He eats anywhere from 4-5 oz every 3 hours.
He has become quite the spitter! He likes to spit up when Tim and I are leaving for work!
He is still a happy baby!
He is giggling and laughing now. Jackson smiles all of the time!
Jackson is really starting to play with his toys. He especially loves his bumble bee, Elmo, aquarium radio, keys, and his links. He can now push buttons to toys to make them play music, and he can now reach and grab for toys.
He loves to be held, but he will let you know when he is ready to stretch out. He loves to stretch out on our bed!
He is doing better sleeping through the night. For the past week, Jackson has fallen asleep around 9:30 or so. We put him in the Pack'n'Play, and he immediately wakes up, so Tim usually gets up with him. They cuddle for awhile, and then he puts Jackson back in his bed. Jackson will sleep until around 5:00 on a good night. If he wakes up in the middle of the night, we usually put him in the bed with us where he goes right back to sleep. If he sleeps until 5:00, we just get up and eat breakfast and start the day.
He stays awake longer during the day. He and Noni go on walks and play.
Jackson loves to have people talk to him. He just takes in everything people are saying!
He still loves music. We sing all the time.
He has to be in the mood to read books. He does not like to read right before bed. He likes to be good and awake. He likes these finger puppet books that I got him.
He has been going to church every Sunday. Of course, everyone loves to hold him! All of the other little kids want to hold him too.
Jackson went to his first and last PTA meeting for a long time! He does NOT like going to school with me.
He cries real tears!
He has gone tailgating at the Clemson games several times. We are taking him to his first game next week!
He has a new toy- Gerry the Giraffe. He picked this toy out by himself at Kohl's.
He loves to grab my hair and hold it while he is falling asleep.
He tries to wrap his arms around your neck. It is so sweet!
His hands stay in his mouth. He loves to chew on them.
He has noticed his feet and likes to watch them move.
The cats are more interested now, and Jackson likes to watch them too.

Jackson always wakes up in a happy mood. (He does not get this from me. Tim wakes up in a fog, but he is usually in a good mood.)
Jackson and I still love to cuddle at night!

I can't believe my little monkey is getting so big! The time has gone by so fast. We are so blessed to be his parents. It gets better and better every month. Jackson goes to see Dr. Hart on Thursday, so we will update his stats then!
