4 Month Check-Up

Jack is 4 months old today! We also went for his 4 month check-up today and everything was great! Jack weighs 13 pounds and 9 ounces (25%) and is 25 1/2 inches long (75%). He also got his second round of shots. He did really well and only cried for a few minutes...I take it harder then he does! We get to start Jack on solid foods. First, we start with rice cereal and once he gets the hang of using a spoon (1-2 weeks) we can start him on veggies and then fruit. I am very excited to start him on solids. I can't wait to see the mess he makes and see all the funny faces. I'll let you know how it goes.

Jack is growing so fast and changing everyday! Here are a few fun and exciting things Jack has done in the past two months.

* Smiles all the time
* Loves to giggle (he is a very ticklish little boy)
* Can roll over from back to front and front to back
* Can do a complete 360 while laying on his back
* Talking (cooing and gurgling) up a storm
* Loves to stand up
* Can reach, grab and hold different objects in his hands
* Found his thumb...finally
* Puts everything in his mouth
* Drools nonstop
* Reaches for his feet and kicks his legs nonstop
* Loves to be held upright so he doesn't miss anything
* Very good head control
* Loves to sleep on his side (he'll roll to his side while sleeping)
* Pushing up with his arms while on his tummy
* Eats like a champ

Jack is a very good baby, he has a wonderful personality and is always happy! Here are a few pictures from the last month.

I love this picture...he's such a little man!


Tummy time on his Boppy


Jack loves sitting in his chair!


Sound a sleep on his side


Loves to kick off his socks but I'm not sure how he got in this position!


Waiting for Dr. Chandler today!
