4 months old!

Well, we are a little behind on Andrew's 4 month post because we've been away from home in Ohio for the past two weeks celebrating Aunt Bridget and Uncle Adam's wedding! More on that to come!

At Andrew's 4 month checkup his stats were:

Weight: 15 lb 4 oz

Height: 24.25 inches

Head Circumference: 43.2 cm

This puts him right in the middle of the pack - the 49th percentile for weight and the 53rd percentile for length. However, he is leaps and bounds ahead in head size - 69th percentile! We saw my OB the other day and she remarked "He still has a big head!"

We also discovered that he HATES the crinkly paper on the table at the doctors office.

In other notes, he's still struggling to turn over on his own - he keeps doing it accidentally but hasn't been able to do it intentionally yet. He's still waking up at night. On good nights only once, on bad nights 2 or 3 times. Like his sister, he spits up. A lot. We're looking forward to the introduction of solid foods!

One of our favorite baby tricks of late is what we have termed "the ski jump". We're trying to get it on video but in essence, if he's standing up on your lap facing out, and you lean him forward he quickly snaps his arms down to his sides like a ski jumper. Trust me, its funny in person :)

He's a big talker and an even bigger smiler! As we like to say, he's really happy except when he's not. Then he's really not happy. No in between with this guy! He can now hold toys and continues to grab for them mostly for the purpose of sticking them right in his mouth.

No "official" photo this month due to our traveling, but here's Andrew on his 4 month birthday!
