4 months

4 months . . . almost 5 now? I've had this in my draft and haven't had time. Life with 2, school, moving, Christmas etc. i can't keep up these days. Lucky for me, Jocie is back to napping. Will explain that on another post. Here's Carter's 4 month stats. At his 4 month he got shots but did well and Jocie got the flu shot, she did well also, cried for a second. She kept lifting her skirt to look at the band aid.

Weight 16 pounds 8.8 oz 80%
Length 2 feet .9 on 50%
Head 43.2 cm 75%


I came home from his check up that day and started him on rice cereal. He likes it. Just learning how to eat it. At times, he blows bubbles while he eats it and thinks it's funny. At 4 months he'd take about 4 naps a day and bed by 9pm. A time or 2 he has slept longer then 6 hrs but for the most part he sleeps around 7 hrs. Bedtime 9pm. Wakes up around 730am. Back to bed by 830am. He got his first tooth Dec 11th and his second tooth poked through yesterday dec 20th. He likes to chew his thumb, talk, play with sister, listen to someone talk in a high voice, hear Daddy sing. He started sitting up yesterday. I put him in his bath tub and he wont lay back, he wants to sit up.
Since September, Jocie went to Joy School. She doesnt anymore but the kids were able to come over 2. This time I had the letter V. I decided to do a volcano with baking soda and vinegar. The kids loved it. Jess and Keven came down the weekend of Thanksgiving. It was great to see them. We miss them.
