4 Months Old

Look who is 4 months old!!

 

Aedan, here is what you have been up to:

• You weigh 16lbs and 15oz and are 24.5 inches long.
• You are wearing size 3 diapers and size 3-6 month clothes (and some size 6 month clothes) and I am pretty sure the onesie in your picture is a 9 month!
• You are still sleeping great most nights from 8pm-7/7:30am. We had a few rough nights were you woke up hungry at either 3ish or 5ish. We just switched you to eating every 3.5 hours and you started sleeping through the night again which made mommy very happy!
• You still love to sit in your bouncy seat. We put you on the ottoman so you can be eye level with us and you just smile and talk to us the whole time.
• You started taking great naps again (usually 2 long naps and a short nap everyday) now that we put you on your tummy to sleep.
• You have started to bring everything to you mouth, the rings on your playmat, your burp cloth, your lovey and your hand if you have nothing else.
• You love when people talk to you, and if we stop you start “talking” louder until we pay attention to you again.
• You don’t like loud noises at all. In fact if someone sneezes loudly you get all worked up but you are getting better about being too sensitive. We may need to buy you baby headphones. :)
• We started giving you rice cereal once or twice a day. You are not a fan of the plain rice cereal but when we mix in the apple rice cereal you love it.
• You laugh whenever Daddy talks to you in a funny voice or Mommy swings you up and down or tickles you.
• I think your most ticklish spot might be your neck. Every time we put a shirt over your head you laugh and squirm.
• You have really started to notice all your toys, patterns on blankets and pictures in books.
• You rolled over (tummy to back) about 10 times in a row earlier this month but since then you don’t seem to want to roll anymore. You are fine on your back or tummy at play time. We aren’t too worried, I’m pretty sure you will know how to roll over before you go to high school. :)

You have grown up so much already. We are loving learning more and more about you everyday. We love you baby boy!
