Official 4 Month Review

Ok. So I waited to do Hendrix's 4 month stats until we had his doc's appointment (which was today).

So here's where we're at.

• 27 1/2 inches long - OFF THE CHARTS!!! The nurse guessed he was probably at about the 100th precentile. It sounds like you're going to be tall like your grandpa Greg!
  
• 17 pounds 3 ounces - 90%
• 43 centimeters in head circumfrence - 75%

When Dr. G (our beloved pedi) picked Hendrix up he exclaimed that he looked and felt like a 6 month old! Big H got check marks across the board and got an excellent bill of health! Yay!! So, things you're doing these days Mr. Hendrix:

• Craning your head so far back you're half way rolled over. Dr. G said that bigger babies like you tend to take longer to roll over just because you poor little dudes have so much more to flip around.
  
• You have the most amazing sense of humor already! Out of no where you'll look at me and just start laughing!!
  
• You talk and talk. I think you're learning that from your big brother. :)
  
• You eat at 7:30 AM, 11:00, 2:30, 6:00, and 9:30 PM. You only eat breast milk at the moment.
  
• You generally sleep from about 10 PM until 7:15 AM and go right back to sleep after your morning feeding until your 11 o'clock feeding. You take 2 or 3 naps during the day about an hour long.
• You love to sit in your Bumbo while we eat dinner and practice chewing while the rest of us are rudely smacking in your face.
  
• You LOVE your exer-causer. You'll sit in that thing for a good 45 minutes on your own sometimes.
  
• The floor mat is one of your favs still. You'll work your way around in a circle just from kicking!
  
• Man are you a kicker!!!
• You love the Little Red Caboose song.
  
• You've learned to suck on your thumb just like Elijah. You hardly ever use or need your paci anymore.
  
• Drool, drool, drool all over the place. I change more outfits on you from drool overload then exploded diapers!!
  
• Your eyes are still grey-blue. Sometimes I think I might see a swirl of brown coming on in your right eye.

I think that's about it and should catch us up to speed. Hopefully, I'll keep up with it in the future and I won't have to list millions of things next time. Although, it's insane how much you little guys learn and change in your first year!
