Walking Weather and 4 Month Stats

This face is exactly why it is great to get out of the house! When we are locked up inside in the cold, tempers flair and kids get whiny. We have really enjoyed the pretty weather and getting out for walks.

Kate and Blake sharing the big chair. Blake is sitting up well in the Bumbo and the chair and he LOVES the exer-saucer and jumperoo.

We have gone for several walks in this beautiful weather. I wear Blake in this carrier (yes, the writing on it is pink) and he loves it. He just likes feeling like a big kid and seeing the world. Sidenote- I got my hair cut/chopped, and this is a little glimpse of it.

This is how Brandon carries Kate. Our friend Matt gave us this kid backpack and Kate is obsessed with it. The past few days, she has walked around saying "hike" and grabbing shoes and heading towards the door. At least she is holding us accountable to get out and exercise.
We went to Blake's 4 month appointmen yesterday and he is growing perfectly. He weighs 14.5 lbs and is over 25 inches long. His reflux is a lot better and he seems to be feeling better- thank you Prilosec! He is getting better and better at night. I am convinced that the earlier he goes to bed, the better the night's sleep we have. He lasted 8 hours straight last night! I just hope we can keep this up. We are praying that we find somewhere bigger to live SOON after match day so he can get his own room and we can have a little more space. Match day is 2 weeks from today!

I totally feel your pain about kids being inside too much. We spent the last 5 days in b/c of the weather and sickness and Mason had serious attitude. Luckily, he's been back at school and on a routine and life is good again. I love your hair. It's really cute. I can't believe Match day is in 2 weeks. Yay!!!
