Rollin' Nolan

I know I'm going to sound like a broken record, especially as the years go by, but Nolan is just growing up way too fast.

It seems like every week he adds more to his bag of tricks. He laughs more, engages more, notices more, and can do more. It's so fun to watch him learn and grow but sad too! I want him to stay this cute and little forever!

Also, we are SO aware that we lucked out with Nolan. He's such a good and mellow baby. But sometimes I think we forget just how lucky we really are. Sometimes when I'm really tired or we're in a big hurry I'll look down at him as I'm changing his diaper or putting his clothes on and think to myself, wow, I bet a lot of babies would be crying right now which would make this task a lot harder. But he's just lying there being sweet, making things easy. And we can wake him up - from a deep sleep - and he doesn't even get mad, doesn't cry at all, just takes about 5 seconds to wake up and then gives you a big smile! I know, so lucky! Maybe we should just stop with him while we're ahead haha!

Here's a quick look at what's in Nolan's bag of new tricks...

He chews on everything


About a week ago he started rolling on to his side and loves that position. Most nights we'll put him in his crib on his back and he'll immediately roll to his side.

Poor guy had to get three more shots at his 4 month appointment. He was a champ though and only cried for about 5 seconds afterward.
 He's now able to grab onto things and keep holding on to them for long periods of time.
He's always liked his turtle
He liked grabbing his dad's tie on Sunday

This week he has discovered his feet and the fact that he can swing his legs up and grab on to them.


He loves being 'Naked Nolan' haha. He's all smiles as soon as those clothes come off! We might be in trouble when he can actually take his own clothes off! :)


A lot of babies get a really funny look on their face when they go through tunnels. We tested it out on Nolan and he didn't disappoint :)

He actually enjoys tummy time now!



And speaking of tummy time. Nolan's newest trick as of today...rolling over!! It took him a minute to get that arm out of the way, but he did it! We're not ready for this...



And in case you were wondering...he's still supa' cute!

March 22, 2015: We loved this blog called Rollin Nolan. Soon Nolan will be doing more than rolling over. He will be crawling every where. He will be asking you for a pickle to suck on and before you know it, he will be asking for a PBJ sandwich. We love all the new pictures and videos. Keep em coming. Love you Nolan, Gr/Gr Bailey :)
