Happy 4 Months Baby Boy

Yesterday was Edison's 4 month birthday. I officially stopped the swaddle. I was reluctant because I really like swaddling and Eddie enjoyed it too (well, maybe not so much at first but he quickly learned its magic). His arms now flail freely and occasionally those strange things flying around his face startle him awake but he goes quickly back to sleep.

I am fairly certain the family is on the road to recovery. The three kids plus Nate still have a wet cough but look a little better. Although the girls have some nasty bags under their eyes. I am looking forward to a break from illness. It seems like we have been sick since January.

Here are some recent pictures of Edison. He appears to be enjoying life. He is such an easy smile and has developed a laugh that sounds like a cross between a grunt and a squeal. If you get him laughing really hard then it's still just a single grunt (just like his Daddy's hard laugh).

Is there a book that tells you these things? "Stop the swaddling around 4 months." :)

I'm glad everyone is on the mend!
