4 months old!!

We just got back from Grant's 4 month check-up...First of all neither of us cried near as much for the shots this time. I can't believe he is 4 months old (sniff)!! He is such a fun baby. His personality is starting to shine. He loves to be around his siblings. He always has to know what they are doing and he loves to smile and giggle while watching them play. He can roll from his tummy to his back. He LOVES his hands (see picture below). He is so fascinated by them and could stare at them and eat them for hours. He is a great eater. The doctor gave us the go ahead for rice cereal today...so that will be a fun new adventure. He is sleeping wonderfully!! He takes good, long naps (yep that's napS...plural) during the day and he sleeps through the night...just waking once around 3:00 for a feeding!! We are so lucky!! We are pretty sure he is about to cut a tooth...chewing on everything and slobbering like crazy. He loves to talk and is very animated when he does. His little eyebrows and hands get into the stories he tells.

4 month old stats
Weight: 16 lbs 4 oz (75%...he has more than doubled his birth weight!!)
Length: 25 an 3/4 inches (75%)
Head: 42cm (50%)
THESE ARE JUST SOME RANDOM PICS FROM THE LAST COUPLE OF WEEKS

Oh my gosh...he is so adorable! And might I add he looks a lot like Ben. Hey I have some rice cereal you are welcome to have. It is still good I just have no use for it!

What a cutie! I have to admit I am a bit jealous of the sleeping through the night thing though:) He is such a sweetie!
