Counting Sheep: 4 months and a Superbowl Win!!

There was a lot of excitement around here this past weekend. The Packers finished off their season with an honest-to-goodness Superbowl win! We had a lot of fun here watching the game with friends, although Arjen was a little busy entertaining the ladies (see below).

Yesterday, Feb 7, he celebrated turning 4 months old. Time really does fly! His 4 mo check up isn't until next week, so right now, my best guess is he's somewhere around 15 lbs. We've almost totally said goodbye to the 0-3 month size clothes, although I still manage to squeeze him into a couple of my favorites. :) With the new size up however, he does get to finally wear some new cute outfits, such as the oshkosh b'gosh overalls and square shirt from Grandma Cherie (again, see below). Along with growing out of clothes, he's grown out of the infant sling that we were using in his bath, and now he gets to sit directly in the water. He gets a kick (pun intended) out of it, as Mommy and the floor usually end up with more water on us than is left in the bath! As soon as he's a little more stable sitting upright, I think we'll have to move off the kitchen counter and into the actual tub for bathtime.

While I have yet to capture any blog-worthy video, Arjen is tolerating Tummy time better these days, and showing interest in rolling over from tummy to back. He hasn't quite mastered this skill, but clearly wants to. He has also mastered thumb-sucking, which has evolved from the whole fist/knuckle-sucking trick he was working on last month. Right now, it's pretty cute and keeps him entertained, so we're rolling with it.

Just a few fave photos since the last post. Enjoy!
