4 months... (A little late)




Well I forgot to post about Nate's 4 month check up, he is doing great!

As of February 26th
His weight 17.25 lbs, which is in the 88.36th percentile, he started out in the 9.96th percentile.
His length is 24.75 in, which is in the 42.16 percentile, he started out in the 42nd.
His head circumference is 17 in which is in the 73.67 percentile, he started out in the 38.49 percentile.

So he is awesome, he is strong and has excellent motor skills, he is starting to reach for things wants to eat what ever he can reach...

He is also sleeping so good! He goes to bed around 7 or 8 and usually sleeps until 3 or 4 then gets up to eat and then sleeps again until 6:30 or so... Its still an early morning but he is doing so great that its ok with me!

He is also starting to roll pretty good, when motivated. He's so close to going from his back to his tummy on his own, and he will go from his tummy to back especially on the bed. He loves the exersauser we are borrowing from Hill and Steve, thanks guys!

Right now he's got a cold though and its so sad, his little stuffy and runny nose make him cough and gag. It makes me nervous at night so I put him in his boppy so he'd be on an angle a little which keeps things from getting caught in his throat and he seems to be breathing better at night that way. He hasn't had a fever and is generally pretty easy to soothe when crying so I don't think he's got any thing serious, like an ear infection or RSV or anything, but we are keeping close watch over him to make sure he stays healthy. Its sad when he's sick.
