4 Months

Eli, you are 4 months old!

• You weigh 14lbs 2oz. (our bathroom scale is obviously not reliable) and 24 1/2 in. long.
• You wear size 2 diapers and they are beginning to get too small.
• You fit in some 3 months clothes, mostly 3-6 month clothes and some 6 months clothes fit you.
  
  
• You were much happier for your pictures this time. I think we caught you on a good day.
• You have learned to roll over both ways and just in time for your 4 month appointment, just like your sister.
• You always roll over on to your stomach when you sleep but that usually means you get your arm or leg stuck in the railings of your bed and that makes you pretty mad :(
• We have learned you're not too fond of the exersaucer. You much prefer to roll on the floor.
• You breastfeed every 3-4 hours and we started you on rice cereal on the 12th and you think that's the greatest thing! I think you're going to be my big eater :)
• You are definitely smiling and laughing more now and you still relish the time right after your sister goes to bed and you have Mommy and Daddy's full attention ;)
• You usually sleep well at night and only occasionally wake up at 3:00 am. The cereal has definitely helped with that!
• You will take one nap during the day, but I usually have to let you cry until you sleep. Sometimes that how it goes at night too.
• You are a sweet boy and I think you are much more laid back than your sister.
