4 Months

Trace is 4 months old this month and it has already been full of new beginnings! We went to his visit on 2/28/11 and learned  he is:

• 15.2 lbs (45%)
• 25 inches (70%)
• Has reflux and now takes Zantac (has really helped his puking)
• Grabs toys and puts them in his mouth
• Identifies his FAVORITE toys (giraffe and crab)
• Smiles and Giggles from his belly (kind of addicting!)
• 3/1/11 Rolled from tummy to back – this makes him so mad because he sleeps on his tummy and is not impressed when he rolls over
• Started solid foods – Rice Cereal / Oatmeal for 4 days then Veggies and Fruits!
• Learned he hates the flavor of cereal so I put it in his bottle (same thing….right)
• Sucks his thumb when awake / Sucks his paci when asleep
• Coos, Goos and sometimes screams for joy
• Loves to play airplane with Mommy
• Sits up with Mommy’s help, but is almost there
• Found his toes and loves to be barefoot (he must be my child)
• Wears 6-9 month clothes
• Enjoys watching cartoons with his big brother
• Let’s Trenton torture him and never even cries when he may have a million toys laying on him
• If you say Dada he freaks out
• If you say Mama he doesn’t care!
• Since his reflux is better he gets to do tummy time more often and loves to smile at the baby in the mirror
• Is less than impressed with baseball games
• Eats 6 oz every 3 hours
