Eighteen Weeks Old

Yet another exciting week here in the Lee house.  
   At the end of last week, mommy and daddy noticed that I was getting more and more fussy as they woke me up for my "dreamfeed" around 10:15pm.  So, on Sunday night, they decided to try not waking me up and see how I did.  Well, to their amazement and JOY, I slept all the way until almost 7:00am - just over 10 hours.  They couldn't believe it.  And, I've continued it all week - but sometimes I do wake up around 6am.  And, now with the monitor, mommy notices that I wake up around 5am - 6am and play for a little while.  Sometimes I go back to sleep, but sometimes I turn myself over and can't get back to sleep so my mommy comes in and rocks me and I fall back asleep for a bit longer.
   On Tuesday, I turned 4 months old. :)
   One day this week I enjoyed sitting in the kitchen watching mommy cook and wash dishes.  She said that I was helping her out - and she even gave me a measuring spoon to play with (pictures below).  Of course, I just put it in my mouth - so that was super fun for me.
   Toward the end of the week my daddy stayed home from work in the morning that day - mainly because he's been so super busy at work and was just tired.  But, I know the real reason was because he wanted to stay and play with me for a while. :)   I sure enjoyed having time with my daddy that morning.
  Then on Friday, I woke up to see all this white stuff outside.  Mommy said that it was snow and, of course, had to snap a picture of me with my first snow fall.  With that, it's been super cold outside so mommy and I have ventured out a bit less.  We are trying to find new things to do around the house to keep me entertained.
   I go to the doc for my 4-month check-up on Monday - and then mommy and daddy say that I can start with some rice cereal after that.  I am super excited as I am beginning to watch mommy and daddy eat and hoping to get to try some of that stuff soon.  
   Til next week, hope yall have a great week. (Mommy is beginning to wonder if I am going to have a southern accent like her :)
