This post is so late that I debated just waiting and combining the 4 and 5 month posts. Yikes! But anyway, Adam is now four and a half months old and just as cute and sweet as can be. He drools like there's no tomorrow, enjoys grabbing toys or clothing with both hands and bringing them to his mouth to gnaw on, has been able to roll from tummy to back since the date of my last post but has only demonstrated this a few times, and is just recently getting soooo close to rolling from back to belly. He gets quite far over on his side but just can't make that final push to get over his arm. He is working on holding himself straight when you hold him upright and is doing lots of baby crunches to strengthen his core. He did a great job in the car on his first trip to Grandma and Grandpa's house in Missouri over Labor Day weekend. As far as sleeping, well, he he slept ALL NIGHT LONG two nights in a row and I was so excited . . . but has proceeded to wake up an excessive amount of times every night since then. But I know the little stinker is capable of sleeping all night, so hopefully better rest is in my not-too-distant future. He adores his big brother, who makes him smile and laugh. He has rubbed out a lot of his side hair but has a ton of hair in the middle, which elicits a lot of mohawk comments from friends and strangers alike!
Adam's four month stats:
Weight: 21 lbs 12 oz (99th %ile)
Length: 27 in (97th %ile)
Head circumference: 99th %ile
I am so enamored of this little man. The curve of his chubby cheek, the soft creaminess of his skin, the kissable rolls on his thighs, the chubby starfishes that are his hands, the way his deep brown eyes light up when you look into them, his winning smile . . . This kid is a keeper!
