4 Months Old

Our sweet little boy turned 4 months old on December 29th.  We had his checkup at the doctors this last Wednesday.  Carson had a growth spurt in the last two months.  He is now 25 inches tall and 14 lbs 12 oz.  At his two month appt he was in the 10 th percentile for his height and how he is in the 40th.  That's a big jump for a little guy.  Then he was in the 25th for his weight and now he is in the 36th percentile. 

At 4 months  Carson is
-still not sleeping through the night, he did once but we haven't even came close since.  As a matter of fact most nights it seems like we are going backwards.
-is an early riser, most days he thinks it's time to hang out by 5 or 6. 
-loves, loves his jumperoo.  That thing is his happy place, he loves to jump, bounce and watch his big brother play
-is pretty much over his cranky evening time.  Every once in awhile he gets crankier.  We still usually have to keep him entertained in the evening but at least we aren't pacing anymore. 
-loves being talked to.  He will smile at anyone who talks to him
-laughs every once in awhile.  He has such a different laugh than we are used to, it's just kind of a chuckle not a belly laugh. 
-can be a cuddler now  sometimes, sometimes he will let me rock him to sleep which is nice!
-likes holding a burp cloth just like his brother
-has rolled from belly to back multiple times, when he is on his back he will roll to his side but never all the way yet
-is really starting to reach out for things, and getting a little better with his hand control
-likes to suck on his fingers but hasn't stuck with the thumb yet.  Some days or nights when we want to pacify him with something it would be nice, since he still won't take a paci which we have given up on.  I have already packed them away so it's really too late now
-still cat naps in the morning but will on most days take a long afternoon nap

And is such a cute little boy with his chubby cheeks, we just love him!C
