baby development

Long time, no post

So, I haven't been in much of a mood to blog lately. Obviously.

I figure you all deserve, at the leat, an update on my sweet boy. Well, he was 4months old on the 23rd of February. He had a well baby check up this past Monday. The results are, he's wonderfully healthy. He's on target for all of his developmental goals. He's in the 50th percentile for head circumference, the 60th percentile for weight, and the 97th percentile for heighth. Whoda thunk I'd have a tall, skinny, kid. Well, he's not really skinny but his weight is somewhat low in comparison to his heighth. This discrepency is making finding clothing for him a challenge. Everything is too loose in the waist but all of his long sleeves are 3/4 sleeves, and all of his pants are capris.

He smiles and coos quite a bit. That makes it lots of fun to play with him. The downside is he gets bored easily so getting things like laundry and house cleaning (and other things)done quite a challenge. He started rolling over this week too. He's grabbing things and really starting to enjoy toys. He likes to sit up in your lap and watch what's going on all around him, especially the TV. He likes anything with bright moving lights, so the TV definitely qualifies. Anyway, all in all, I'm absolutely loving him right now. He is so much fun. That's not to say that the nights of screaming while he's teething are all giggles for me, but the smiles and giggles are well worth the price.

So, now, what you've all been actually waiting for. Pictures of Wild Bill. Enjoy!!

Getting ready to head to Julie's on a very cold morning!

Thanks for the update, and wonderful pictures. I knew if I kept checking, I would hit pay dirt. If he follows his father's growth pattern, he will always be a challenge to find things that fit. But, if he also follows his father's temperament, he will not be choosy.
I'll keep checking back for more pictures of the most handsome baby, and sweetest mother, I know.

Aren't they the sweetest when they're asleep? They look like little angels! Glad everything's going well! And I'll be calling you for teething tips whenever X-man finally decides to get teeth!
