4 Months

I feel like this month Eli has really made some great strides in his development.  He is very interactive and social, loves reading books, grabs and plays with toys, and still loves his cuddle and rock time with mom and dad.

4 Month Stats:
1) 10.6 lbs - almost doubled in weight
2) 23" long
3) 41,5 cm head circumference
4) Wearing 3 month clothes and moved into Size 1 diapers.  We officially packed away all newborn clothes.
5) Has started sucking his thumb and/or his fist.  We only really use the pacifier to calm him down during "witching hour before he goes to bed
6) Started sleeping through the night consistently.  We have dropped the midnight feeding, and he goes down at 8pm.  Typically he will wake up for his first feeding around 4:30-5, and then go back to sleep until we wake him up to get the day ready and on to daycare
7) Rolled over twice from tummy to back, and rolls side to side on his back
8) Is grabbing everything from toys, blankets, hair, you name it
9) Still holds his arms and hands very close to his chest "boxer style".
10) He is starting to play coy and/or flirts with other people.  He will smile really big and then bury his head in your chest, and then peek out with one eye
11) Officially has the George Constanza hair.  He still has darker full hair on the back of his head, but his new hair growing on top is very light...  Good we have a blonde boy on our hands?!?!
12) Strong head raises, and is starting to hold his head up on his own

 4 months old already!
 He looks so peaceful sucking his thumb.


 One tired pup after his second round of vaccines.  Poor sweet baby boy :(
 Starting using his bumbo chair to help his neck/back/head get stronger.
 Reading time!
 Loves grabbing his elephant on the play gym.
  
His boxer stance, or we call it his Tigger stance - "put 'em up, put 'em up"
