Elliot had his 4 month appointment this past Friday. He is a happy (very) healthy baby! The doc said we could start him on baby food when we feel he is ready or needs it. (some babies eat frequently and don’t seem to be satisfied). We are going to hold off awhile because E seems to be doing just fine. E has hit a few developmental milestones: he has great neck/head control, he is grabbing and holding toys, he tracks people and objects.
Weight: 16lbs 14 oz Height: 24 in
Overall, Elliot is a happy little boy! He smiles a lot and is starting to share his smiles with others (if your lucky). He has begun laughing a ton and it doesn’t take much to get him going…a kiss on the belly, a funny face, silly sound, or daddy holding him high in the air. E is also sleeping pretty well (I almost don’t want to say for fear of jinxing us!), but 4 out of the 7 days this past week he slept 12 hours straight! We have begun weaning him from night time feedings, so if he does wake in the middle of the night, all it takes is his pacifier and good night wishes and he falls back into slumber land :) He is also going down for naps and bed really well. I think he finally gets the routine and expectations…he rarely cries and seems to be asleep within minutes! I’m loving it! Elliot is in a fun stage. He is curious about everything. His current fascination are trees. Whenever we are outside his head is tilted to the sky and he stares at the leaves. He also love, love, loves (maybe its me who love, love, loves) his new jumperoo! He jumps, sways, plays, smiles, and sometimes watches tv in him jumperoo!
It just doesn’t seem possible, but each day we love this little man more and more!
