4 Months

 Our little one is 4 months old today and growing like a weed!  He has been such a blessing to me and Eric and our families.  His little personality is showing more and more each day.  He is such a happy boy!  He is quite the chatty one too.  He is starting to teeth, but it hasn't been too bad yet.  He is still sleeping through the night and sleeps 10-11 hours if we let him!  He rolls from tummy to back, but not consistently yet.  He holds his bottle really well now.  When we lay him down he tries with everything he has to pull himself up to a sitting position.  He has found his feet and will stare at them as if he is trying to figure out how to get those things in his mouth.  Speaking of that, he puts everything in his mouth now.  His favorite right now is Jerry the Giraffe and fingers (his or otherwise).

We had his 4 month doctor's appointment today.  He is weighing in at a whopping 16 lbs 14 oz!  He is 26 1/8 inches long and his head is 17 3/4 cm.  He is in the 75-90 percentile on all three.  According to the doctor, his noggin' in his best asset. :)  Unfortunately, he has a bit of a flat spot that we are going to monitor.  Hopefully with more tummy time that will round out.  We also got the green light for solids.  We will probably start those in the coming weeks, so expect some entertaining pictures!  In the meantime, check out our 4 month photo shoot:


Happy 4 months!


 Big Boy!


I'm getting used to this picture stuff

Happy boy!

Finally big enough to play in my jumper!
