4 Months

Ashyr had his 4 month checkup today. He weighed 14 lbs. 12 oz., and was 27 in. long. His doctor asked if we have tall people in our family, because he was in the 95th percentile for height. Um yes, tall daddy and tall uncles. He is destined to be a big boy.

At 4 months Ashyr can roll over both ways, giggle, squawk, reach and grab things (most notably my hair), touch his toes, blow bubbles, stare without blinking longer than me, and kick off his shoes (see below). I'd say he is pretty talented. Did I mention making the whole room shake when he passes gas? He is about to lose all of his baby hair, but thankfully he still has those deep steel blue eyes which of course I'm hoping they stay that way.

Here are some pictures at 4 months.

River Market

Went to the River Market this morning. We hadn't made it yet this summer, so I was glad to go and load up. I loved getting all the homegrown goodness and Ashyr loved getting attention by complete strangers.

Confession

I ate FOUR brownies tonight. Whoops! But I'm back to my pre-pregnancy weight, so I'm allowed right?

Tired Little Guy

This past week Ashyr has had a major growth spurt. He has been sleeping (and eating) like crazy. One morning when I went to pick him up, he seemed like a different baby. He was just SO big compared to the day before. Since he has been sleeping really hard right now as he is growing, I've found him totally zonked out in his crib looking pretty stinkin' cute...

Hanging out...


Bottoms up...

Back to Front

I was surprised to find Ashyr looking up at me with those big blue eyes this morning in his crib...on his tummy! He figured out how to roll from his tummy to his back on his 2 month birthday, and now at 3 1/2 months he can roll the other direction. He has done it several more times today. I hope to catch it on camera soon and get a video posted. This is going too fast for me...
