Four Months Old


Our handsome little guy had his four months check-up yesterday. He definitely remembered the last time we were there because as soon as we put him down on the table and the nurse bent over him with her stethoscope, his lips puckered up in fear and he started crying. Sad but oh so cute!

Noah is getting very big. Here are his stats:
Length- 25 3/4 in (74%)
Weight- 15 lbs 2 oz (49%)
Head Size- 16 3/4 in (52%)

At four months he:
  • sleeps through the night
  • can roll over from his stomach to his back and from his back to his stomach
  • grabs anything that comes near his hands and puts it in his mouth
  • laughs when he thinks Mom or Dad are being silly
  • can stand up on his feet while being held
  • follows Gabbie around with his eyes any time he hears her voice
  • kicks his feet like crazy when he is excited (whenever he does this Gabbie will scream "Noah scited')
  • sleeps very lightly during the day and is frequently woken up by his big sister playing
  • holds his head up high when he is pulled up into a sitting position
  • nurses almost exclusively but we have started giving him a little bit of cereal each day if he is still hungry
  • loves to snuggle. he grabs your hands and pulls them up close to his face so he can lean against them
We love having him in our family. He is a wonderful addition and we all adore him.

I can't believe he is already four months old! It was fun to read a little bit about him and the things he is doing.
