4 month check up

Micah had his 4 month check today! My biggest newborn is still my smallest.... he weighs 17lbs, 15.5oz. Can you believe that both Joel and Nathan each weighed almost a pound more?? Micah has about half an inch on them in length - Joel and Nathan were both 27 inches and Micah is 27.5 to be almost exact :) He is doing all the things he should, grabbing, rolling, following objects with his eyes... he loves to smile and laugh and play. He is just a joy to have in our home. He has developed his own schedule which works out great for us...a couple of short naps in the morning, a long afternoon nap and bedtime between 7 and 7:30. He still wakes up once or twice at night but goes back to sleep easily after a quick feed. He's started to enjoy the exersaucer - can't even count how many kids have played in this one and will soon be bouncing around in the jolly jumper. It's still hard to believe it's already been 4 months since we brought him home. After seeing our friend's new baby, it's amazing to see how much things change in just 4 months....
Oh and happy birthday to me. Bet my mom can't believe how fast 33 years can go!!
