4 months...

3 months4 months
Here are his stats from his 4 month appointment:

Weight: 15 lb 9 oz (75th percentile)
Length: 68 cm (99th percentile)
Head:45 cm (99th percentile)

Otie is at such a fun age. He is smiling and giggling all the time. He's reaching for things and putting whatever he can straight into his mouth. We've started taking him swimming every week and he loves it. He used to be really mellow in the bath, but since we've taken him swimming he is super hyper in the tub- almost to the point that he is a danger to himself. It's so funny, he gets a really serious look on his face and just starts frantically kicking and waving his arms. He is rolling from tummy to back and back to tummy. On Friday we went over to a friend's and laid him on a mat next to another baby and he laid there stroking the other baby's face for 10 minutes without making a peep, it was so cute. He is really into faces right now, he always wants to have his hands on my face (and in my mouth). He loves to snuggle. He wakes up so happy in the morning and from naps and likes to cuddle for awhile before he eats. His favorite toys to slobber all over and try to eat are Sophie the giraffe (from Grandma) and CoCo the chicken. He is discovering that he can scream, so when we're eating and out of no where he makes the loudest squaking noises then giggles like he's pleased with himself. He get's really excited and giddy when Ty comes home from work.

I love him.

Otie is getting so big! He is adorable! He is at a really fun age. It is so fun when they can play with you but they still aren't mobile yet!
