He's another happy baby. No complaints really. He varies on sleep (to be expected) and I suspect he's been having some gas issues but we're working on that. Overall we are spoiled with happy children.
He currently weighs 13 pounds 2 ounces.
4 Month Developmental Milestones
Mastered Skills (most kids can do)
Smiles, laughs - He laughs, giggles, smiles. Especially when he sees Louis and Leah.
Can bear weight on legs - He's taken to standing up whenever he can
Coos when you talk to him - He has his talkative moments and then other times just looks around pensively.
Emerging Skills (half of kids can do)
Can grasp a toy - Depends on the toy. He will grab at them but there are only a few he'll continue to hold on to.
Rolls over, from tummy to back - He started to do this a few weeks ago. It took me by surprise. He loves being on his tummy.
Advanced Skills (a few kids can do)
Imitates sounds: "baba," "dada" - I noticed just today that his random sounds are starting to sound a bit like imitated words but it isn't quite there yet.
Cuts first tooth - He is teething up a mess of drool and lives with his fingers in his mouth. That being said- it means nothing with our kids. Leah & Louis started to teeth around the same time. Leah didn't cut her first tooth until she was much older & Louis well past his first birthday.
May be ready for solid foods - He meets some of the developmental readiness signs but we wait until he is ready for food, not when we decide to force it onto him. And most likely not before 6 months.
