Are We There Yet?: 4 months old, I think....?

Braden is offically 4 months old! I was a little confused on his age, but I just counted weeks and he'll be 17 weeks Tuesday. I'm lucky to know my own name, much less what day it is. It has definitely gotten harder lately. He's tested me a LOT. He screams, and screams and screams. Then he'll do something like put his hand on mine while he falls asleep or when I go to hand him a toy, he'll grab my finger instead of the toy and it reminds me just how much this little guy loves me and needs me. No matter how close to the edge he pushes me, I can't take it personal. I get stressed out, no doubt. But this too shall pass. Luckily, I've had family around and my girlfriend from church who went thru this has really helped me thru everything I'm feeling and talked me off the ledge =) But we're doing pretty good other than the (almost) daily struggles with Braden. Brody graduates Kindergarten June 8 and we're going to Oklahoma for a while yay!!! Here are some pics!!
