New Tricks/Random Recent Pictures

Rollin' Rollin' Rollin'... Our little ball of cute is 4 months old now, and he's learned a few new tricks. First of all, he's started rolling over from his back to his belly. Problem is, he can't quite make it from his belly to his back. And he doesn't really like being on his belly, so we go through the following routine every 2 minutes:

1. Place baby on back
2. Baby promptly rolls over to belly
3. Baby gets annoyed that he's on belly and begins crying
4. Pick up baby and go back to step one

It's okay, though, because he's very cute when he does it : )

He's also been laughing a lot, which is, for us, the best thing ever. He particularly likes belly raspberries, nibbling on his toes and pretending to gobble his neck. It's amazing how, in one simple sound, we have the culmination of all of the trials it took to get to this point. How this little act of joy from him encapsulates the intense feelings of joy we get from him.

Anyway, here is a random selection of recent pictures. Hope you enjoy!

Boo!

Happy Halloween
