Four Months Old

So on Tuesday you had your four month birthday. Looking back at photos from when you were first born you have changed so much and are developing into a little person, it is so neat to watch. You are full of smiles when you first wake up and Daddy races to get you up, each wake up he is home, just to get your biggest smiles. You love music and I have found a kids radio station on the computer sponsored by Plunket; you love listening to the songs and your new favourite song that I sing you is Sausages and Custard. You will often giggle along to either the funny lyrics or my funny singing voice and expressions. Either way it gets you chuckling and there is no better sound, it is contagious.
You are confidently rolling now and are wanting to move. We can see you trying hard with the beginnings of a crawl but no matter how hard you try you still aren't quite strong enough and this at times can make you frustrated. You bring you knees up towards your tummy and like a worm shuffle up towards us or the toy that is in front of you. Even when you are sitting on my knee now, you want to get moving doing a little bum shuffle or rocking yourself forward and back for momentum to move. Your hands are becoming taster and lots more is being discovered through your sense of taste. You are even at times fleetingly finding your thumb to suck on. But you often have fingers or fist in your mouth chopping away and have started enjoying the coolness of your teething fish in your mouth. Story time is still a special time and you are watching learning all the time from reading now if I put you close enough to the book you will even have a go at turning the pages.
