Making himself known

It is so fun to see the different personalities of our boys. Joel's is coming out more every day. He LOVES to be where the action is and is a mover! As you can see from the movie below, the Bumbo seat is not a safe place for our little squirmer. He turns in circles on the floor and can't get enough of his big brother. It is like he is taking in everything Kale does so he can make his move as soon as possible. Of course Kale loves his little brother and asks where "BabyDole" is several times a day.

He has been sleeping better since we finally borrowed a velcro swaddler. What a difference it has made! The first night we used it, I didn't have to re-wrap him once! Of course he has figured out how to get a hand or 2 out now but it happens so rarely that we don't care! He is sleeping longer at night and only eating once. Kale started sucking his fingers at this age and then slept through the night. Joel's hands are always in his mouth but there is more chewing than sucking going on. Hopefully 4 months is the magic age for Joel as well but who knows. My goal is to have him sleeping through the night by the end of the Olympics. Peter said he would give me a gold medal if I did. :)Smiley Chubs

I hope his blue eyes stick around.
