Brecken is now 4 months

Brecken is now 4 months old and is wonderful. He has been so easy. He goes along for the ride. Sometimes he is easy to forget about when you have two other kids starving for attention. I have tried to make a special effort to tells the girls I need to sit and hold Brecken and play with him and they will have to wait. He is not sleeping all night like he was. I think he is just going through changes and developmentally his is right on schedule. I went back to work on Jan 3 and he has been great at night for Brian. He says Brecken gets up at 1:30 and at 6:30 to eat. I pump at work and he is taking the bottle great for Brian as long as it is breast milk. Not so good with formula. The transition has not been bad for everyone. I think that as time goes on it might become more difficult. I go to work at 6 pm and come home around 6:45am. I usually feed Brecken and then I am off to bed. Brian is so helpful in that he stays home until 12 noon and then goes to work. The schedule works for us and I feel like we are a team. I work two shift a week and it is ok.
Brecken has some of the cutest expressions.

He still spits up a lot. But this doesn't seem to bother him. He is a lot more alert this past month and actually will stay awake long enough to play for a hour or so.


He still is enjoying tummy time. My girls cried the minute I put them on their belly. Brecken will last about 20 min and then puts his face down in the pile of slobber and cries.




Brecken now is 26 1/4 in tall -90%
18lb 4 oz big, very big -95%
head 43 cm -70%
He is growing fine and I can't keep up on the clothes, he is in and out of them very quickly. He loves hanging out with daddy and watching the Utes. What a game!!

He is so cute! I'm glad that your third baby has been so much easier for you. That must make life a little easier.
I will need to come and babysit for you guys while I am off track in February. You probably need a date with your hubby. Let me know. :)
