Week Sixteen

Almost four months old!  I cannot believe how quickly time is going by and how awesome you are.  We are still getting the groove with how to handle expressing milk at work and bottles at home and when to feed you when I am not here and how to make sure that you are not sleeping when I get home.  It was so hard to be away from you this week, especially since I was busier at work and not able to get home on time every night.  We have started baby massage in earnest and yesterday we did Mommy/Baby Yoga together.  I just love you so much and wish that I could spend every day with you.  Your Dad is trying to get you to crawl and has this technique where you wriggle over his abdomen when he is laying down.  He also has you taking naps in your crib, which is super impressive.  You are also more verbal, although we have no idea what you are trying to communicate.  You have a bunch of toys that you love playing with: two O balls, a Dolly, and the rainbow Sassy O rings.  I have been having such a great time taking pictures of you.  I think that in another life I would have wanted to be a photographer... babies, little kids, weddings, graduations pretty cool stuff.  I have also written you a song (I actually wrote it several weeks ago) and I sing it to you when you are standing and shaking your bottom trying to keep your balance.  It is called Bum Chickie

I'm a Bum Chickie, Bum Chickie, a little Bum Chickie
I do a Bootie dance, in my baby pants
cause I'm a Bum Chickie, Bum Chickie

I shake my little bum, I shake it to and from
cause I'm a Bum Chickie, Bum Chickie, a little Bum Chickie

I rock my bootie left, I rock my bootie right
I rock my little bootie with my baby might
cause I'm a Bum Chickie, Bum Chickie, a little Bum Chickie
