I'm Four Months Old!!!!

March 30th, Liam turned 4 months old! :( And he is starting to look more and more like his daddy.  He is starting to use his voice more and loves to copy sounds you make.  He is such a happy baby.  I'm pretty sure that he is over his belly issues and I have started to add dairy back into my diet.  So far so good! Hallelujah!!!! He is starting to roll over.  In the morning when I go get him out of his crib, he usually laying on his back which is not where he started out.  He is drinking 5oz of milk every 3-4 hours and is starting to get those baby fat rolls :)  He goes to bed around 9 and usually wakes up around 4.  I can't complain about that.  On days that I don't work I will feed him and we will both lay back down and wake up around 6-7.  He keeps his hands in his mouth and drools.  If he doesn't have his hand then it's either his bib or blankie in there.  We think he is cutting a tooth and I can see little white buds but Dr. Eastham says that it is too early so we will see. 

Today we went to Dr. Eastham's office for his 4 month check up.  We love Dr. Eastham. He is so funny.  He weighed 12lbs 13oz which was in the 6th percentile.  He was 24.5 inches long which put him in the 22nd percentile.  And his head circumference was 40.5cm putting him in the 18th percentile.  He wasn't to happy that he had not doubled his birth weight but he said that he looked healthy with his double chin so he wasn't too worried about it. haha.  When he was doing his assessment of him he looked at the back of his head and said " Looks like the map of Europe" haha poor baby and his big birthmark.  He said as he gets older it will fade.  I'm not worried about it, it makes Liam who he is and I love it!  He said that we can start eating solids whenever we want to.  So that will be an adventure!  He got his shots and cried for about 2 minutes and then he was fine.  Ryan and I stopped and got Gigi's cupcakes and then I had to get fabric at Hobby Lobby to work on a baby gift for baby Hallie Hunt!  The boys stayed in the car.  Ryan ate his cupcake while Liam passed out.  He has been pretty fussy tonight and he is finally asleep in his swing holding onto his blankie, sweet boy.  Time needs to slow down. In the meantime, I'm going to soak it all in :)

Check out that double chin!

Dr. Eastham listening to his heart ....
