The LITTLE MAN!

I can't believe my baby is 4 months already!! He's been such a joy to have in our family! He's so cute and cuddly...I want to squeeze him all day...wait...I DO!
It was just this time last year we were plannning for this little guys arrival!
Traceon had is 4 month doc appointment yesterday and is doing great! But he is officially CROSS EYED. (In case you couldn't already tell by all of his pics!) Trace measured in at 26 1/4 in (90%) and weighed in at 15lbs. 6oz (60%)!! Tall and slenderish!! Doc said that we're going to have to take Traceon to see specialist for his eyes. They are pretty much crossed all the time, so it could be one of three things; one of the four eye muscles is too tight and needs surgery, or one eye is stronger than the other and his body is rejecting his weeker eye, which will require a patch, or one eye doesn't see as well as the other and his body is using the stronger visual one more. All fixable, but it kind of stinks for just a little guy to go through!! Dangit!! There's a specialist down in Pocatello that is recomened, but if we're not comfortable with him we will go to Children's Primary Hospital down in Utah.
Traceon was doing so well at sleeping through the night, until about 2-3 weeks ago. He kept wanting to be nursed more often and waking up in the middle of the night starving! So I asked Doc if that was a sign for more food. Doc said MORE FOOD!! So we are starting him with some rice cereal! Last night was his first time! He was not sure about it at first (I could tell he really wanted to be nursed instead) he cried a little in the begining, and was very unsure about the whole thing! I mixed the cereal with breastmilk to make it a bit more appealing and I think it worked!? After a couple bites he realized it wasn't so bad and then was so smiley and excited, and wanted more and more!! Funny guy!
More milestones, more memories, and such a cute little man!!

CROSS EYED LITTLE BOY!! I think that is pretty close to the cutest thing I've ever seen!!

The poor guy had to get shots yesterday too! Oucheeeeee!! Look at them hams!!

Yum Yum in your little tum tum!! Tasty!

That wasn't so bad after all! I kind of liked it!! CUTE KID!

I think he looks like Aydan's little twinner in the pick where he's taking a bite! For the most part, your boys have their own little looks but you can definitely tell who's little bro he is in that pic!

Ridiculous that our babies are this big already, isn't it!?!? He is so tall! He's got a good 2 inches on Kaylee! He is a dang cute little boy. Such a sweetheart with that cute little messy smile! Love the close up with his fingers in his mouth.
