4 Months Old

Lane is 4 months old! I feel like this month he has shown the most change as far as milestones and developments go. He has become very smiley, but also still has a bit of a moody side! Haha! People always comment on how he is always smiling for pictures. I guess his momma knows how to get those grins out!

At 4 months LANE:

*Weighed 13 pounds 7 oz at his 4 mo checkup - 25th percentile

*Was 24 in long - 25th percentile.

*Head circumference was in 25th percentile as well. Dr. Phan said he is perfectly proportional!

*Can still wear all of his 0-3 month clothes, but can also fit into some 3-6 month depending on the brand.

*Wears a size 1 diaper

*Now wears a size 1 shoe...outgrew his 0's

*Can sit up by himself for about 10 seconds before toppling over.

*Rolls over both ways. Rolled over back to stomach on his 4 month birthday and now rolls around all over the place!

*Is much better at looking at something and grabbing it. Still chews on everything.

*Can stand and "walk" with help.

*Still takes a paci but not as much.

*Still LOVES his silky. We take one EVERYWHERE!

*Started sleeping in his crib on the 4th of July. Sleeps much better in there! (And we sleep better too!)

*Usually takes five 6 oz bottles a day.

*Goes to bed between 9:00-10:00 pm and sleeps until around 7:00 am.

*Has become more of a napper this month and will usually take one pretty long nap a day and one or two other shorter naps.

*Tried rice cereal for the first time on his 4 month birthday, but doesn't like it. Will take it better with a little bit of applesauce mixed in.

*Went to the Little Gym and storytime at the library this month.

*Has really discovered his voice now. Especially loves to "screech" really loudly.

*Laughs out loud.

*Still has no teeth, but I can see the little buds under his gums.

*Has grown to hate his carseat. Screams loudly when strapped in and arches his back to get out.

*Will no longer stay in carseat at restaurants. I have become a pro at eating with him in my lap!

*Loves to look at books.

*Can ride sitting up facing forward in his stroller now.

Lane Austen-We love you to bits! You get more and more adorable every day and are growing up so fast! I know 5 months will be just as fun as 4 months was!
