Ben has hit the 4 month mark! At his 4 month old appointment he weighed 16.3 lbs and was 25 1/4 inches long. He's still a little above average, but the gap is closer than it was last month. This month he didn't put on the pounds, but he did shoot up in height. So now he's not such a chunk.
Don't get me wrong, he's still a fatty - just less so! :)
News since last month:
Ben is starting to enjoy being in his swing.
He loves sitting up in his bumbo seat.
We've been putting him in bouncy-seat and he loves it. He's getting really good at kicking his legs.
He's also starting to enjoy car rides. He doesn't fall asleep in the car - ever, but he doesn't cry anymore. (yay!)
He smiles and laughs a ton!! He cracks up all the time- sometimes at nothing! It is so much fun! He smiles really big whenever we walk up to him. Who doesn't love being appreciated like that!?
His favorite toys are: his ball, his turtle, and his frog.
He also loves staring at the dog's tail when it's wagging.
He doesn't sleep very well at night, so this month I'm slowly starting to put him on a regular schedule and some semblance of a routine- we can adjust from there.
Ben is a very sweet, happy little boy and I absolutely love being his mother.
