I breathed a huge sigh of relief coming out of Graem's 4-month-checkup.
After a bumpy start to life, he is finally on par with other full-term babies. He weighed in at 13.9 lbs (60th percentile, age adjusted), and is in the 75th percentile (age adjusted) for height at over 25 inches.
He also laughed the entire visit.
He's not yet rolling over, which many 4 mothers are, so there is a bit of his prematurity showing there.
The doctor gave the "go" for solid foods, and I headed straight to the grocery store. I love shopping for baby food.
We tried carrots first. And, I think maybe he got a total of one teaspoon in his mouth.
He's sleeping between 5-8 hours straight at night, and averages 4 naps/day.
He loves going on runs in the stroller with me.
He adores playing with his older brother. Sienna still mostly keeps a safe distance from him.
He loves to be tickled on his inner thigh, and his collar bone.
He loves baths.
He is the kind of baby that makes you think you could do another 3 more.
Dot, dot, dot.
Sigh.
Here he is on Halloween, wearing the same costume Brae wore home from the hospital.

Such a cute pumpkin!
