Four Months Old

Umm....how did Elliott already turn four months old? No one ever tells you HOW much you will actually love your children! It is pretty hard to explain to someone, I guess. It is even hard to put into words how awesome they are. We were just talking about how excited we are to see what his little personality will be like in the coming months. We've already determined that he is active like his big sister. In fact, I was at the doctor today and the receptionist held him while I had my exam and she said....does he ever bend? He is already enjoying his exersaucer and I think it may be time to break out the jumperoo! Maggie has been begging me for weeks to get it out of the basement. I am pretty sure she will try to get in it on a daily basis!

He had his four month check last week....12 1/2 lbs. and 24 inches. He also measured 24 inches at his 2 month appointment so they have to be off somewhere along the line because I know he is longer than he was TWO months ago. We also go the go ahead to start cereal. He really does love it....I think it is disgusting, but he seems to enjoy getting messy. I've already broken out the ole' ice cube trays to make some baby food and get it in the freezer. We'll give him a couple more weeks of practicing with the cereal and then we're off and running! Now, if this kid would just sleep a little more, life would be awesome!!!!



Looking cute it a girly bib!

Oh four months is so fun! We just crossed six months and are staring down crawling in the near future. I wish we could go back to four months where she just laid there!!
Good luck with the solid foods.
