I cant hardly believe my little man is now 4 months old! We had his checkup and he checked in weighing 14 lbs. Which is only the 33 percentile, but for my kids, he is the biggest. He also came in the 56th percentile for height at 25", which is also unusual for our vertically challenged family. (maybe we do have hope of some height)
I was given the go ahead for cereal, which I am always so excited about (dont ask me why) so we tried some that night and for the most part he just tolerated it. Not to excited, but didnt refuse it either. He did just get over an ear infection and so was on amoxicillin in addition to his axid for reflux and gripe water (to soothe his tummy from the amoxicillin). So my thought is that he thought it was just one more thing to swallow and then got sick of it when it kept coming. We are working on it and hopefully soon he will catch on to the spoon thing. I gave him his first haircut just before Christmas. (I know Im anal but it was turning mullet-ish).
He is such a sweet, smiley baby. He loves now to play with toys and figure out how to get them to his mouth. Even though he doesnt look happy in the picture, he really does like to sit in his Bumbo. Since he was sick, he will only take his binky when he is tired and wants to sleep. BUT has also found his thumbs! HE is constantly drooling. He loves to watch and talk to his sisters. They can get him laughing pretty good, its so cute. And even though the little guy only takes 45 min cat naps, I love him to death! Having a boy in the house has been alot of fun and Im excited for more to come.
