Our little boy is getting so big! He had his 4 month appointment last week (he's was actually 4.5 months) and he was 17 lbs 5oz and 27 inches long! He is in the 90th percentile for weight and 95th for height. He got more shots which were not fun but no ill effects. Since he had not been sleeping great at night the Dr. recommended some tips which we tried starting Saturday night, and miraculously he is back sleeping through the night. Yay for me! I think the trouble was i was nursing him to sleep instead of letting him fall asleep on his own. So now he is learning to do that and is sleeping much better. As you can see we took Zach out on the boat last weekend. He went swimming with his life vest and had a ball.
We also started him on solid foods. He is starting on rice cereal and then will move to veggies in about a month. He loves it though, sucks it right down. Other big news that i found out today is that Zach's first tooth is coming in! He put my finger in his mouth like he does with anything he can get his hands on and bit down. Ouch! I felt a sharp edge on his gum. Maybe this explains some of his fussiness. He is going to look so cute with a tooth! Well today i went out and bought a baby pool. Its so darn hot down here and i like to get him outdoors so i figured this would be a good idea. We got him in it tonight and he was splashing around! Little Z loves the water. Next week we are off to Cleveland to meet the Sustar Clan. Can't wait...will update probably after that...
