So, as a second time Mom, I am not obsessive with Blake’s need to hit milestones, but don’t mistake that for not caring. I do, and recently he has hit a couple of big ones!
Blake Talking to His Mommy
This is a picture of him talking to me…Yeah, we are discussing the stock market and how he is thinking of investing once he’s five months old, drug cartels and how they are corrupting the planet…seriously, it’s just mind altering chemicals, who needs that when some grownup called Mom makes silly faces at you all day, that’s mind altering enough? Finally, we talked about how he personally is going to help halt global warming. He told me he will pee less which will create less dirty diapers and in turn have a smaller impact on the landfills.
Seriously though, he will mimic you if you make a motorboat sound and he will also make that sound if he wants your attention. It’s his first attempt to communicate with us and it’s adorable! He is giggling and cooing and doing all the fun stuff that a four month old should be doing in the communication department…I love it!
Then the other day, he rolled over from his tummy to his back! He gets all frustrated on tummy time and realized if he works himself up enough and gets overly pissed off, then he gains enough energy to flip himself around. He is quite astonished that he can do this fete! So astonished in fact that he has chosen to not repete it in a couple of days, guess he’s a little calmer now and days!
Chillin on Tummy Time...Should Have Fixed Those Devil Eyes
Finally, he has started grasping his toys and putting them in his mouth…while I know that is totally normal right now, I am not so sure that we should consider my fingers as toys…or maybe we should, since the inevitably end up grasped in his hands and into his mouth. He has this crinkle toy that so far is proven to be his favorite…I think he likes the noise it makes when he is chewing it and he loves the blanket texture since the toy is made of that material and usually if that toy isn’t in his mouth, an actual blanket or sleep sack is.

So, my baby Blake is starting to be, “All’s Growns Up!” Well at least in baby milestones he is!
