4 months old

Age: Four months
Weight: 16 lbs 6.4 oz (62%)
Height: 25" (30%)
Head: 42 1/2 cm (67%)
Eye Color: Still blue with a slightly hazelish ring around the center.  Mostly they are blue though.
Hair: His hair is getting long on the top and has stayed shorter on the bottom like a mop top.  It's almost able to be a "comb-over".  I think it's precious though.
Clothes: He is wearing 3-6 months in most clothes. 6 month clothes are a little long on him & the 3 month clothes are mostly a little snug.
Diapers: He is in size 3 diapers.
Sleeping: He had a bit of a sleep regression this month. He started waking up right at 1 hour after he goes to bed almost every night. Sometimes its enough to give him his paci and his tiny snuggie blanky and he will go right back to sleep. Sometimes I will have to rock him back to sleep, and occasionally I will nurse him back to sleep if he is really worked up. We have tried different techniques, but unfortunately there is no magic solution that works every time. Once he gets back to sleep he will usually sleep at least 5 to 6 hours in a row.  He occasionally will sleep 8 to 10 hours, but this is not the norm like it used to be. Hopefully this is all because he has been growing like crazy this month!
Eating: I have still been exclusively breast feeding him and loving it! He still prefers to nurse over drinking pumped milk out of bottles & sometimes will go all morning at Aunty Ki Ki's drinking only 2 or 3 ounces. Then he will want to nurse every couple hours when I pick him up.
Milestones & Daily Things: He is still a really happy baby who is quick to smile. He will look up and smile when you say his name. He has really started to track the sound of peoples voices and his focus on things has improved. He gives mommy and daddy HUGE smiles when he hears our voices. He can now hold his paci in his mouth for longer than a few seconds. He will really let loose and giggle now.  It is pretty easy to make him laugh with a funny face or noise. I still love to let him take at least one nap a day in my arms...usually after I get home from work I'll feed him and let him sleep in my arms for 30 min to an hour.  I think I enjoy this cuddle time as much as he does. He can now push his head up with his hands while he's on his tummy.  He can't hold this "crawling" pose for very long though. He is trying SO hard to roll over but hasn't quite got there yet. He gets mad and will go side to side.  He also really loves playing on his play gym.  He bats at all the things hanging down and grabs on to them.  He will pull the monkey off and start chewing on him. He is VERY ticklish. You can get huge smiles and laughs with a little tickle under his chin.  He is actually ticklish all over & has been since he was born but his laughing makes it so much sweeter. My favorite new thing he does is coo and "talk".  He was pretty much silent other than laughing and crying until now...but now he will coo and ahh and make the sweetest "talking" noises.  It melts my heart. He started this just after he passed three months old.
