4 Month Stats

Eric had his 4 month appointment today. He is growing so fast and getting so big. Here's the 411 on our baby boy:

Weight: 14 lbs 15 oz-- 48th percentile
Height: 25 3/4 inches-- 77th percentile
Head Circum.--17 inches--72nd percentile

He also got his first few shots. He had the DTaP, Polio, and HIB. He was cranky this morning when he got home but is doing better now. I'm glad they went well. I'll try to download pictures this week. I have some fun ones of him at 4 months. 
 We also started cereal last week. He mostly likes it if he's hungry enough. He is still figuring out how to push it back but is getting it.
 Sleeping update: Eric is doing a lot better with nights. We started giving him formula before bed and he is only waking up once. He just wasn't getting enough from me. When I would pump it would only be 1-2 ounces from both sides. So, we're adding in some more food and he's been a lot happier. WE LOVE OUR LITTLE BOY!

Yay for sleeping better!! : ) He didn't have shots at 2 months?

Oh, and that's so nice that you can give him rice cereal this early. I wanted to, but the pediatrician told me not until he's at least 5 months, and baby food at 6. But we started both at 5 months anyway. : ) I think different food makes them a little bit happier.
