Something that is new is BENTLEY IS 4 MONTHS OLD NOW!! He is getting to be such a big boy and he is growing up so fast. I feel like it was just yesterday that i gave birth to him and i was holding him for the first time. He went to the Dr. for his 4 month check up and the dr. said that he was a very healthy boy. He is just a little under average, but close enough where he said he is average. He is now 15 lbs 15 oz and he is 25 inches long.
This was when we were waiting for the Dr. to come meet with us. He was laughing and talking the entire time.
Some of the things that Bentley loves to do is...
1. He loves to take baths. Every time he is upset or fussy I say,"Do you want to go take a bath?" He stops cry immediately.
2. He loves to talk 24/7 and to everyone and anything he sees. His favorite things to talk to is his toys that hang from his car seat, the ceiling fan, and his mobile toys hanging from his crib.
3. He loves to grab his feet with his hand and hang on to them.
4. He is starting to like (not love) lay on his tummy and sit up. He loves when daddy comes down to talk to him and he plays a game. Jordan says, "YAH," to Bentley and then Bentley puts his head down to the floor then bring it up.
5. He loves to stand up and have mommy tickle him.
6. He loves to be tickled and laugh.
He loves to sleep in his bouncer and sleep in general.
This is his 1st Halloween bib Grandma got him
He loved sitting by uncle Wes! Bentley feels like such a big boy when he sits all by him self.
He loved to sit up on daddies shoulders.
He is such a big boy sitting all by him self.
Another fun and new thing that has happened, in the Ales family, is that Wesley left for his 2 yr mission to Provo, Utah. We are so proud of him for deciding to go on his mission and serve the Lord for 2 years. He will be a great missionary and help many people's lives and have them become closer to the Lord. Bentley will miss him so much, but we will make sure he remembers who is uncle Wesley is and why he is not here when he is growing up. He will be such an inspiration to Bentley and an example to what the Lord wants us to do when we are of age to serve a mission.
Bentley loves sitting with uncle Wes during family home evening!
This was the right before Wes was leaving for the airport.
Right after he was set apart as a missionary for the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints.
Bentley loves his Uncle Wes so much. He will miss him
The girls and I matched for church that day, all jean jackets and vests.
We are so excited that Bentley is getting bigger and developing well. He is such a joy in our lives and we can't wait to see him grow up the rest of his life. We are super excited for Christmas because he will be taking his first trip to Washington and meeting the rest of mommy's family. Plus he might have his first white Christmas.
Love:
The Ales Family
