On June 28, 2012, my baby boy turned 4 months old… yes almost a whole month ago! I have been trying to find the time to type this up but with vacations & nice weather out, I've been slacking.
At your 4 month appointment you weighed 15.9lbs & 26inches long! For weight you are in the 65th percentile & for height you are in the 85th! You are a tall boy! You have the bluest eyes and brightest smile and I just know you'll be a heart-throb when your older!
On your 4 month birthday we moved you into size 2 diapers. You are wearing mainly 6 month clothing, especially sleepers however you still fit into some of your 3 and 3-6 month clothes.
Your personality has come to life even more this month. You are such a happy boy! You like playing peek-a-boo and you are becoming ticklish in your things and feet. You are also very inquisitive and have started noticing your world around you. When I brought you outside for your pictures you were so entertained by the birdies and maple tree, it was hard for mama to get you to smile or even look at the camera.
You are a mover! You're rolling onto your side and trying your hardest to roll over. You love standing up and looking around. Your hands are quick to grab everything, including my hair, eyes, month & skin! You love kicking and splashing in the bath tub and it's so cute when water gets in your eyes from splashing you always look at me like "mom, why did you do that?"
Your favorite toys are still your bouncy seat (although you're getting close to growing out of it), your play mat, swing, elephant chew toy, bumble bee senses toy, and your glow worm. You love the ergo carrier, stroller and car rides however Mama holding you trumps all the other options.
Tummy time is finally successful! You actually are enjoying playing on your tummy and grabbing for your toys.
You spent half of your 4th month away from home! With a week in Donner Lake and a week in Santa Cruz, you have been spoiled with kisses from your Noni, pop, grandma, grandpa, GiGi & Auntie. You are such a good traveler. You slept great (even better than you do at home) and rolled with the flow everyday on vacation. You loved going to the beach in Donner & walks on the boardwalk and pier in Santa Cruz.
TEETHING... has officially began. It began at 3 1/2 months with you tugging at your eyes, rubbing your eyes and chowing down on my fingers. Now you're drooling up a storm and wearing bibs most days. Even though you're teething and sometimes in pain, you are such a trooper.
I say it every month, so I'll say it again... Baby boy how are you 4 months old? Time has flown by and I am loving every second with you... even those 4am feedings! You are so full of love and giggles that I cannot stand being apart from you… which is why I never am! hehe
You are my whole world & I am cherishing every second we spend together watching you grow, learn and develop into an amazing little man!
