Four months old

Our baby boy is four months old already and is changing so much! We took Graham to his 4-month check-up today and the doctor said he's doing great...and asked if he always kicks so much. :) Yes, he does! As with his 2-month check-up, he had to get three shots and one vaccination orally. Poor baby! He's been pretty fussy tonight but hopefully will be back to his normal, happy self tomorrow.

  • Height: 25 1/2 inches -- 50th-ish percentile
  • Weight: 14 lbs 7 oz -- 24th percentile
  • Head Circumference: 16 3/4 inches -- 73rd percentile
Other Graham updates:
  1. Graham is very vocal...he loves to "talk" and, more recently, squeal.
  2. He smiles constantly and has started to giggle (best sound EVER).
  3. Graham is sleeping pretty good - he goes to bed between 8:30pm and 9pm and typically sleeps until 6:30am or 7am. He has been waking himself up sometimes at night but will fall right back to sleep if we give him his pacifier.
  4. He's reaching for things and is actually able to grasp them now...not just random movements anymore. He really likes to grab my hair...and pull. :)
  5. Standing is one of Grahams favorite things to do...he'd rather do that then sit or lay down.
  6. Graham is SO happy in the mornings...I love it! It's safe to say that the early morning wake-up calls are a lot easier when there's a smiling baby cooing and kicking with excitement when you walk into the room.
  7. He's still our little snuggle bug...and I'm fine if this sticks around for awhile!
