4 months!


William is now 4 months old! he went to his 4 month check up on Friday. his stats were...


Height 25 1/4 inches 70%

Weight 15 lbs 9 oz. 72%

Head 43 cm 75%

He is growing and developing really well!
He likes to talk and smile and grab anything that is in his reach he has two toys hanging in his car seat and as soon as he gets in it he holds onto those two toys (one in each hand.) even while he is sleeping.


He is starting to stand pretty good. when he is fussy if we just let him stand he stops. he loves to stand. The other day I rested him against the ottoman and he was holding on and standing all on his own. He is pretty strong.

once a day at night he gets bottle fed instead of nursed (from breast milk Ive pumped.) and about half the time he hold his own bottle. It is the sweetest thing.

He has started to teeth! not so fun! he gnaws on his hand and fingers my hand and fingers... and teething toys for relief. I put numbing stuff on his gums all the time. he will have a good day and then a bunch of not so good days. Ive been just waiting for them to pop up and announce their arrival!

When he turned 4 months I was going to start solids. So he has had rice cereal for a couple days now. And surprisingly he has done pretty good.


He has been trying to roll over from his back to his stomach but hasn't mastered that yet!

He has also been trying to sit on his own. Trying is the key word, not doing it yet. I am predicting soon!

He is getting so big, I can't believe he is standing already. Annalise refused to stand until 11 months, so it looks like you are going to have a busy baby! I hope we can see him before he gets too big!
