Happy Birthday baby!

Today is Landon's 4 month birthday. It seems like he should still be the little baby he was just a short 4 months ago. He has really changed and seems so big now. I love watching him develop but sometimes I still miss my little baby (I also know that feeling will never go away).

Stats:
Weight 11 lbs 8.5 ozs.
Length 22.25 inches
Head 40 cm

Accomplishments:
He can roll over from his back to his tummy and prefers to roll to the right.
He can now push up on his elbows when on his tummy and look around.
We have play on floor time and when I put a rattle or keys in his hand he holds onto it and shakes it around.
He almost giggles.
He loves when we hold him in the standing position.
He sleeps through the ENTIRE night. Mommy is VERY proud. He goes to bed between 10:30 and 11:30 and does not wake up until 5:30 or 6am!!
He eats a lot during the day (I am assuming to make up for not eating through the night).
He talks a lot when he is on the changing table--regardless of whether or not we are actually changing him.
This month, we took our first trip to Arkansas to see family and friends. He did pretty good on the way there and back. Landon was in a picture with Brian, Brian's mom, and Brian's grandma when we were with Brian's family.
When we went to visit my family, we were able to take a 5 generation picture with him, me, my mom, my grandma, and my great-grandma.
Said pictures will be coming.
Landon and mommy joined a couple of mommy groups and are making new friends. Tomorrow (or almost today), we are going to meet some mommies and tots at a park. Landon loves being outside.

On a mommy note:
I am still walking most mornings.
I am now selling Mary Kay. If anyone would like a free facial, please let me know. I can come to you.
I have started school. I am only taking one class this semester--mostly due to the fault of the school. I was signed up for 2 classes.
I will be starting guitar lessons on September 18th. I am very nervous about this.
My sister-in-law (Brian's sister) has moved in with us. We are enjoying her company.


Big news:
Landon is being baptized on August 31, 2008. We are very excited about this and at the same time, it is hard putting into words all of our emotions. God has really blessed us by giving us the most amazing gift we could ever ask for. Landon has brought so much joy and love into our lives and we are so thankful for having such a beautiful, happy, and healthy baby boy.
After the baptism, we are having a cookout at League Park. A friend of ours is coming to the church and party to take pictures. We hope to see everyone there!
