4 Months Old, Thanksgiving, and other happenings

Carlisle turned 4 months old on Friday. He is really funny right now. He loves to smile and will also giggle. He has discovered his hands and loves to shove his whole hand in his mouth as well as any objects he has grasped. He has started to show some interest in the exersaucer, but still mostly loves to lay on his activity mat and kick that one toy with the levers. Carlisle now hates to be on his tummy for "tummy time", and fusses every time I put him on his tummy. He will roll over occasionally, but not consistently.

Thanksgiving was wonderful. It was great to spend time with our families and reflect and give thanks for all our many blessings.

Here are the 4 month pictures with his bear:

After Thanksgiving pass out:

Carlisle's cousin DJ celebrated his 1st birthday on Thanksgiving. We are so lucky and blessed to have DJ in our lives. He is our miracle. He was born at 27 weeks and has amazed us over this last year as he has grown and grown. Here are some pictures from his birthday party:

Here are some funny shots of Carlisle over the last couple of weeks.
