A New Buddy All of the Way from Atlanta

After a long wait, Landon finally got to meet his new buddy, Isaac. Mommy was so excited to see how much Isaac has grown, and she couldn't wait for Isaac's mommy, Darla, to finally get to meet Landon. Darla and Mommy have been the best of friends since before Mommy's earliest memories. It's always such a special treat when they get to visit from Atlanta.

Landon was pretty impressed (and perhaps inspired?!) with how Isaac played with his play gym - "What, you don't have to just lay underneath it?" Now Mommy has to hold him on her lap everyday so he can play like cool Isaac!

Unfortunately, good times with friends from far away must eventually come to an end. This was the very first time that Landon has ever had to say goodbye to a special buddy. In spite of Isaac's sweet attempts to comfort him(!?), Landon just couldn't hide his sadness. Hopefully, next time, they can play a little longer!

Four Months Old, Already

Wow! It's amazing to realize that Landon is four months old today!! Mommy and Daddy are having so much fun in this precious phase. Landon has started giggling, rolling over from his tummy to his back, and - drum roll, please - the best news is that Landon has been sleeping through the night!
For the past several nights, he has slept nine - and sometimes ten - hours in a row! He's also taking great naps, and Mommy is getting so many projects accomplished at home. She is definitely looking forward to our check-up at the doctor's office next week to find out how much he weighs and when he can start eating baby food. Mommy's newest project is learning how to make organic baby food - yummy!

Landon's Loves

As Landon continues to grow, there are many new things that he loves to look at and explore!
Although he isn't one to enjoy too much time in the swing - "Five minutes is enough, Mommy," - he certainly enjoys looking at the toys which hang from it.

Time in the big crib is not too scary because the cute animals swinging on the mobile above intrigue Landon immensely.

He's starting to make the most of tummy-time on his "surf board" by looking around and reaching for toys. Mommy and Daddy promise that he's already making plans to crawl away when they aren't looking.

Landon is always happy when it's time to explore the baby play gym.

Most of all, Daddy is convinced that Landon's favorite thing to play with is Mommy - "Don't mess with my Mommy time!"
