4 months old

Tracen is 4 months old! I can't believe it. He's so much fun to have around. Although he's a little spoiled and thinks he should be held and entertained a good portion of the time. We all love him to death though and he has the older boys wrapped around his finger.

Tracen facts:
He has not rolled again to my knowledge...Ty swears he has :)
He got his first haircut courtesy of Aunt Crystal--cried pretty much the whole time.
He's starting to grab at toys and be entertained by them
LOVES to share orange creamsicles with his dad
He definitely weighs over 18 pounds.
Can squeeze into 3-6 month clothes but is much more comfy in either 6-9 or 9-12.
Smiles and talks a lot, and his giggle is so cute.

First haircut

Tracen loves his Bumbo. I wanted one really bad but couldn't fork over $30. A few weeks ago I received a card at work with money in it from all my co-workers (Thank you!) and was able to buy the bumbo and a play mat. He loves them both. Tracen likes to sit straight up so it's perfect for him. Josh says he likes it when he puts him in it on the trampoline and bounces him (lets hope gently lol) I guess there's a reason we have moms and dads, dad's keep life interesting and mom's keep you safe.

Cute - would you post a picture of him crying so I don't get baby hungery! (Oh I guess you did with the haircut picture - but he still is way too cute.)

Nathan LOVES LOVES LOVES his Bumbo! I think it makes them feel so big... doesn't it?!?

Tracen is so freaking cute! I swear Nathan will need a haircut by 4 months too!

Okay, the thought of Josh bouncing Tracen in his bumbo on the tramp scares the crap out of me. Let's really hope that he is being super gentle.... hehe.

Aw, Tracen and Mark aren't looking so much alike any more. They are sure growing up.
Oh BTW I'm so jealous you have a Bumbo.. I totally want one, but I'm too cheap!

Tracen is a little cutie!! We loved being with him those few days in Vail. What a good little boy he was! That just showed me how fun it would be with a baby and Addi! Oh my how scarey!!
