Ben - Four Months!

Sweet little Ben turned four months today!  I feel like I say this all the time, but time really does fly with two kids! 

Ben has really turned a corner in a few ways and is making life a wee bit easier.  He no longer screams his head off when in his car seat.  So our trips out and about are much more pleasant.  He is also starting to take a bottle - somewhat.  We can get him to take about one to three ounces.  Its not quite where I would like for him to be, but it is progress and we will take it.

Tummy time is also a lot more fun, and Ben loves to roll over.  Henry rarely rolled over.  I think this is just one of many different ways in which my boys will be different.

Ben is also starting to play with his toys and intentionally grabbing whatever item comes into his grasp - blankets, toys, clothes, my hair.

He is still camera shy, which is a shame.  His smile is so yummy, and I swear he smiles with his whole body down to his toes.  The few pictures I've managed to take just don't do it justice.  His eyes are also a beautiful shade of blue, and I hope this does not change.

We've been sleep training Ben, and this has been a more difficult process than it was with Henry.  Ben likes to protest and will let you know when he is unhappy.  But we've made progress, and he was sound asleep within a few minutes of being put down for bed tonight.  He may be stubborn, but so his momma!
