Jack's 4 month appointment

Baby Jack in his jumperoo
Jack had his 4 month appointment on 5/29/13.  He is doing great!  He is 16 lbs 2 oz (50-75%) and 26 3/4 in long (98%).  His head is 42 cm (50-75%).  He is a growing boy!  He is eating oatmeal 2x day which is going well.

He rolled from his back to his tummy for the first time this week.  Then at daycare he propped himself up on his elbows and his knees a couple time.  He's going to be on the move soon!

He is a happy little guy and his smiles melt our hearts!  Madelyn is protective of her little brother - she is always asking about baby Jack.  Jack has gone to my parents a couple times (so we can get some sleep) and when he leaves she gets upset because she doesn't want him to go.  Glad she still likes having in around :)

His favorite thing to do is jump in the jumperoo.  He bounces and bounces and smiles the whole time!  The piece we are struggling with the most is sleeping, esp at night.  He doesn't sleep for any long stretches and is up at least every 3 hours, if not before.  We are trying some new techniques in order to help him (and us!) get better sleep.  We didn't have to teach Madelyn to fall sleep on her own....she just seemed to pick it up.....but we are going to have to help Jack with this one.


Madelyn loving her baby Jack!
