4 months old!

My big man is 4 months old. I can't believe it! He is now 15 lbs and 25 1/4 inches long (I did weigh him at home and he was 15 1/2 lbs, so I'm not sure which one to go with.) In any case, he's growing fast. Tonight will be his first experience with rice cereal. I'm excited to see how it goes.

On another note, we are starting to finish the basement. Since Pat can only work on it during the weekends, it may be a somewhat slow process (which is fine, we aren't in any kind of hurry). He is getting supplies to frame out the 1/2 bath this weekend. I also decided, since I can't have my "model home" decorated home for many years, I am going to do our bedroom as an adult only oasis...NO KIDS! We are going to put a chair rail up about 2/3 from the floor and paint below it chocolate brown (the actual color name is chocolate pudding). I would like to hang some stuff on the walls, but I'm not sure what yet. It'll be a small change, but nice to have a space to call my very own!

The weather is supposed to be back in the high 60's/low 70's for a few days, so I'll get a chance to run outside. My half marathon training is going well, but I haven't hit my long mileage days yet. I may have a different opinion in the next few weeks.

Am I supposed to smile?
Old man face!
You are funny, Mama!
I'm trying to relax here! Leave me alone!
