The position I ended up in after I rolled

Message from Momma

First of all a big Happy 4 Month-Day to Knox! Hopefully tomorrow we fit in his monthly photo session maybe this time without all the complaining on his part. We take pictures all the time, so I am not sure why every month when we set up for the monthly shots he screams incessantly. Now that he's become so smiley, I have high hopes we can get at least one with a smile. I will post a few when soon.
Now after Knox talked about his tiny milestones the other day, we have a big one! On Friday morning at 11:30am, HE ROLLED OVER! He was playing on his lion mat while I cleaned up the kitchen. He was lying on his back so he could look at the toys and pull on the rings, he has recently started to LOVE his play mats and actually really interact. He coos at the animals and pulls on them and grabs the rings. Anyway, I looked over the counter to see what he was talking about and he was on his belly and almost off the mat! I am pretty sure he had not intended to do this, I haven't ever really seen him try to push over, but he was not unhappy about the new position.

Two Tiny Milestones

Happy Day Before Thanksgiving, Friends! So first of all a big "who knew?": Who knew that although babies cry a lot, we don't actually have tears. I cant read and therefore have not further researched to discover why, but Momma has checked around and its the same across the board. How strange that this isn't common knowledge since it seems to be the case for every baby. Anyway, this is why Momma always tells me to stop yelling. I guess she is right, aren't tears the defining feature of a good cry? Well BIG. NEWS. After several minutes (ok Momma interjects here to say an hour or more) of much unhappiness over bed time, I finally managed to squeeze out my FIRST REAL TEAR! Daddy spotted it and before it could run its course down the side of my face he wiped it away for me. Haha when I master this development my pitiful face is going to take on a whole new level of sadness. Momma and Daddy won't be able to refuse me a thing.
The other tiny milestone is that after many meals and a little concern I have finally doubled my weight! After last week's call to the doctor and learning that at 10 lb 13oz I was in the 1% of boy's my age, I weighed in tonight at 11 lb 4 oz. Haha, not only can I control my parents, I can control my weight at will. And they had the nerve to call me "scrawny". I'll show them ;)
