1/3 of a Year

Filed Under: Family Tagged With: carsyn, milestone

Carsyn is 4 months old today. Seriously where is the time going? It is disappearing in front of my eyes. If it wasn’t for my pictures I would never know the last 4 months even happened.
Day 4- Portrait Challenge {Revised}

Carsyn can now sit up on his own for a few seconds. Of course he is no where near able to do it without me there to catch him. I will be so excited when he can sit up completely by himself for pictures.

He has stopped sleeping 12/13 hours straight and now wakes up 1-2 times a night. I think he may actually be hungry. He is getting to be a big boy. I am trying to wait to start solids until he is 6 months old. I don’t mind him waking up once a night to eat. It is nice being with him in the still of the night. Just me and him.

“How long is this going to take? I am on a schedule here.”

He loves to chew on his hands, but sometimes has a hard time actually getting them to his mouth.

“Mom, why are you singing to me?”
DSC_0523

He loves being sung to. If he is fussy, he will calm right down. Just like when I took these pictures. He was not a happy camper, but when I started singing he just stared at me. {no I can not sing good, maybe that is why he is looking at me funny…}

He is still happy most of the time, unless he is hungry or sleepy. Carsyn takes 2 naps in the morning and usually 1 long nap in the afternoon. Occasionally he will break that nap into 2 naps. He is in bed by 7:30 and usually up for the day around 7.

He absolutely adores his daddy. Unlike Dustyn, I think he is a Daddy’s boy. When Dustyn was this age he didn’t want anything to do with anyone besides me.

He has rolled over both ways a couple of times, but nothing consistent. He loves to stand up while you are holding his hands. I am so happy to have Carsyn in my life. He has been a true joy to our family. I think Carsyn & Dustyn will have a great time playing together when he gets older. “

“Are you crazy mom? We won’t get along.”

Root check on my Thai Constellation from @tropical Root check on my Thai Constellation from @tropicalplantsusa. I got it just after Valentine’s Day. I think it is time for a repot. I’m going to wait for the new leaf to harden up and then repot it. I have been super happy with the quality.

6 weeks ago I cut off the top of my Monstera Adans 6 weeks ago I cut off the top of my Monstera Adansonii because it was very tall but not bushy. It was nerve wracking at first. I had 5 total cuttings that I put into water. 4 of the pieces had roots longer than 2 inches with some secondary roots. The last piece is still in water, it has some roots but not enough, so giving it a bit more time. Where I cut it is also making a new stem and I noticed further down it was trying to branch out in other places. Hopefully it takes off this Summer and becomes fuller looking.
Sweet pea. Sweet pea.
Freaking freezing soccer nights. 🥶🥶🥶 It Freaking freezing soccer nights. 🥶🥶🥶

It was soooo cold out there tonight even with the sun. The wind was whipping. It may have been in the 40s but the wind chill was in the low 30s. I think my face is wind burned. Annie did a great job playing tonight and was trying so hard to make a goal. The other team was short on players, so one of her teammates was goalie and did an awesome job stopping the ball. Annie tried a new strategy of holding the ball in between her feet until the other team gives up. 🤣 There is one clip of Prestyn (# 13). His games are harder to take video of cause his field is so big.

Two and a half months after her first tooth she fi Two and a half months after her first tooth she finally lost her second tooth. It’s been hanging on barely. Today while eating lunch I told her it was close to coming out and we would need to pull it before bed. While eating chicken teriyaki she thought she swallowed it and spit out the chicken in her mouth. I dug through it and it wasn’t there. She started freaking out. Then looked on the chair and it was sitting right there. 🤣 A similar thing happened with Prestyn on one of his bottom teeth. My kids never want to pull them out until they fall out on their own. Ha.
