4 Months Old!!!


on his way down...

fingers in the mouth and lots of slobber





Happy 4 month Birthday to my little boy!! Man, we love him so much and even more every day. I told Eric the other day that he isn't just a blob that lays there anymore. He is so active and interactive. It's amazing to see what he learns daily.

Here are the stats from the pedi visit

height-26 1/2 inches---90th percentile
head circumference--90th percentile
weight-18.75 lbs!! whoa--off the charts!

He is perfectly healthy with no major issues. He does have to get an xray of his hips done because Dr London wants to make sure he doesn't have hip dysplasia. She is fairly certain he doesn't but he has "asymmetrical fat rolls"-2 on one side and 3 on the other-of his legs and that is a common indication of hip dysplasia. This is just to rule it out so that if we need to we can be proactive about any issues instead of waiting until he is walking.

Here is what he is currently up to:

sleeping thru the night!! still
taking 1-2 naps throughout the day
drooling--ALOT
reaching out and grabbing things and pulling them to his mouth of course
cooing and laughing. He smiles every time we smile at him and sometimes at the dogs too.
He eats cereal twice a day with bottles in between. He loves his cereal!
He is starting to act like he wants to roll over. I bet it won't be long.
We love the morning time with him.. he is such a fun sweet baby during that time. It's his best time of the day.
His eyes are starting to change colors a bit. they are more grey/green right now

I'm sure there are so many more things, but I will leave it at that for now along with a lot of his different expressions.

Love you all
