4 months

Jonah's four month stats:

weight - 15 lbs 13 oz 70.5%
height - 26.25 inches 90.6%


At his two month apointment, his weight was the 70th percentile, but his height was only the 50th, so he's done some serious growing over the past two months!


We met our new pediatrician at the clinic closer to our new apartment. He said Jonah looks very healthy and I agree! We are constantly getting comments about what a big baby Jonah is - I had no idea he was in the 90th percentile! His feet reach the end of his swing!


The other thing we get commented on regularly is how talkative he is. Especially when I have him in the carrier when we're running errands. He loves looking around and does a running commentary of what he sees.


He is just starting to laugh/squeal while we play. He will either get really quiet when I sing or he'll try and sing louder. He loves to be held up so he can stand, and he can hold up a lot of his weight. He fights naps. He can't hide when he's tired though, his eyelids get red and he'll rub his eyes. We're still working on sleeping through the night. I know he has it in him, he just loves his midnight snack(s)! We've been going to the park and walking Sadie pretty regularly, and he really enjoys being outside. He also likes to see himself in the mirror. He hasn't started putting anything besides his hands in his mouth, but he loves to suck on his fingers. He'll even pull out his pacifier to suck on his fingers. And that is my baby!

What a wonderful update! He's definitely been growing. No wonder he needs to eat so often!!!
You (and we) have a delightful baby in Jonah!
