Jaxon ~ 4 Months

Jaxon is 4 months old, which hardly seems possible! It was almost a year ago at this time that I found out our big surprise was on the way!

Jaxon ...

... is growing so fast! He weighs about 17-18 pounds. His 4 month check up is on Monday, so we'll know exactly how much he weighs then.

... wears 6-month and 9-month clothes and size 3 diapers!

... LOVES cereal and is a pro at eating it! We have been putting cereal in one bottle a day now for a few weeks in hopes that it would help with the reflux. We started spoon feeding cereal to him this week. He acted as though it was no big deal and he knew exactly what he was doing. He eats a huge bowl every night around 6:30/7:00. Jordyn and Jayla love to watch him eat his cereal.

... drinks about 5-6 ounces of formula in one feeding. He is doing well with the formula since I had to stop nursing.

... rolls all of the time. He doesn't roll too often from his tummy to back, but he rolls very easily from his back to his tummy.

... loves to play with toys. He's great at grabbing things to hold onto.

... enjoys standing in the exersaucer and sitting in the bumbo. He also still likes the swing. He is almost to the point of growing out of the bouncy chair - which isn't a huge deal since he's never really liked it.

... sleeps from about 10:00-6:00 each night. I am so thankful he's a good sleeper!


... still continues to be rather fussy for a two to three hours each night. We are so hopeful that this will end soon. :)

... LOVES when his sisters talk to him. He gets so excited when they are by him. He almost giggles each time they talk to him.

Happy 4 Months, Jaxon!
