Appearance
~Still the most handsome boy (in our humble opinion - ha!)!
~His eyes have remained light gray.
~His hair is getting a little darker but it hasn't really grown much.
~He has a birthmark on his left cheek. It's very faint and not really noticeable, but I notice it.
Nicknames
~Kevin is someone who likes to give everyone a nickname. So Landon's nickname soon became Buggy. My dad used to - and still does - call me Bug, so it's kind of neat Landon has kind of the same one.
~We call him Buggy, Bug, Buggy-Boo, and even sometimes my dad and Kevin will call him Smeagol. Isn't that awful!? Ha!
^It's the eyes!
Sizes
~Landon is in 3-6 month and 6 month clothes.
~Size 3 Honest Co. diapers.
~He doesn't really wear shoes, but if he does they're size 0/NB.
Personality
~He is a dream baby. He hardly ever cries and he is so smiley and loves to laugh and giggle!
~If he does cry, he'll stick out his bottom lip before he cries and its the most pathetic thing I've ever seen (and it breaks my heart).
Likes
~He is still a big fan of his play mat.
~Landon likes to always be facing outwards if he's being held.
^Watching TV with Papa.
~He loves to suck on his pointer finger and middle finger of his right hand.
~He likes to always have his hands in his mouth, or anything in his mouth for that matter.
~Landon likes to place his hand on his cheek while he's nursing. I'll spare you a photo, but it's really cute. :)
~He adores his Sissy!
Dislikes
~If he can't wiggle around, he gets unhappy. So if he's in his car seat or stroller and it's not moving he's not having it.
Eating
~He takes approximately six ounces at each feeding.
~He eats five times a day. Since I'm back to work now, I'll usually try and nurse him two times a day, sometimes three times if I can get up early enough to nurse him in the morning before we leave.
~I might start him on some rice cereal by spoon next month, but I don't know yet.
Sleep
~Baby boy slept 11 1/2 hours straight on January 26th! Since then he has been consistently sleeping through the night.
~He still has naps that can last anywhere from 45 minutes to an hour-and-a-half. They're not really consistent in length of time.
~He takes three naps a day (8:30am, 12pm and 3pm). He dropped his evening cat nap that he would usually have around 6pm.
Schedule
~Same schedule as last month.
Milestones
~Landon will purposely grab for toys hanging above him or toys that are laying on his chest.
~He reaches for your fingers if they're nearby.
~He can roll from his back to his side and he's very close to rolling from his back to his tummy.
~He scoots around on his back using his legs.
~Little man can sit in his Bumbo with his head unassisted now.
~He happened to discover he has feet for the very first time while I was taking his four month photos!
New Experiences
~Not many new experiences this month because everyone in our house has been sick, so we've been laying low.
~We went to Salinas to spend some time with Bacca (aka Grampy) for his birthday while Omi (aka Grammy) was out of town.
~Omi and Bacca came to visit us for a weekend.
~Buggy got to come with us wine tasting and he did excellent! He hung out in the Bjorn for a bit, and then once he got hungry and tired he hung out in the stroller the rest of the time.
We just think this kid is the greatest!
