4 Months/ Pictures

My big boy now weighs 12 pounds and 9.5 ounces and is 25 inches long! He is growing so fast! He got another 4 shots (one liquid in his mouth) but he did very well with them. His check-up went well overall, except we have to take him to an oral surgeon next week to look at his upper lip. He has this red blister-like thing that we thought was just from sucking on his pacifier, but the doctor wants a second opinion to make sure it isn’t something more serious. He also gave us a prescription cream for his really red/dry skin on his neck and under his chin. It seems to be helping so far. His cradle cap is going away and is almost completely gone. Now only if he would grow some hair! Oh, I can’t forget to mention that for the past few weeks, he’s been sleeping all night until around 6-6:15! We are SO HAPPY about this! The doctor said we could start introducing Connor to some solid foods whenever we are ready. I think we are probably going to wait another month though.

We took Connor to his first A-Day game this past Saturday and he was an angel! He never even cried and we had him outside from around 11:00-4:45 or so. We did get to sit in the shade and a breeze was blowing. I was so proud of him and he looked so cute in his Alabama gear. He finally fit in a pair of blue jeans I bought months ago.

He’s been trying roll over from his stomach to his back. He gets half way there and then comes back down. He’s really cute to watch. Yesterday when I went to pick him up from Miss Vicki’s she said he rolled over twice! My first reaction was YAY, but then I realized I missed it. I missed his first roll over and it got me all upset. That’s the biggest downside of working; someone else gets to see everything he does first. I’m having trouble dealing with this =( but I know I’m not the only mom who experiences this.
