4 Months



Under the tree at Grammy and Pops's

Love the blanket and pillow Aunt Annie and Karissa made


JD & Jack (finding his thumb)


Opening presents from Krebs family


Charlie & Jack


We love Thursdays when Gramadel comes to visit. Jack always has a smile for her.

Your first Christmas. It was so wonderfully peaceful. We stayed home this year to spend Christmas morning together. All of the kids were excited to open their gifts and we had so much fun watching each other and sharing the time together. Jack, of course, loved the paper and boxes! He has a shirt that says, "All Mommy wants for Christmas is a Silent Night." That could not be more true! Oh to sleep again. Some day... :-) After the opening of gifts we went to Fayetteville to celebrate with the Shankle family. It was crazy wonderful chaos as always!

Jack's first Christmas Tree


I love all of our stockings. I bought them when we had only 3 children. I bought enough for 6 children. This year I ordered another for baby Jack.







On your 4 Month birthday I took you to see Blythe our PA. You weighed 16 pounds 4 ounces! What a chunk! I am so happy about how wonderfully you are growing. She said that I could try some rice cereal to see if it helps you sleep better. You sleep at night from 10 pm- 2 am then often wake every hour after. Your day time naps are not much better only about 1 hour usually. Here are pics of your first bites of cereal. You really have enjoyed it and do a great job eating! I love you so much, my little sack of sugar!

Sometimes You're So Serious









FINALLY A SMILE!
I absolutely cannot resist your adorable pouty lips! I laugh so hard when you raise your eyebrows at me. My heart melts every time I look into your eyes! I LOVE YOU!
