4 Month Stats


Carter had a great dr. appointment today. The doctor and all the nurses were pleased to see what a "big" baby he has become. We've been given the all clear to start solid foods. We'll probably start in a couple of weeks when he shows more interest. Also, Mom was encouraged to be a little "tougher" at night. Yes, that means let Carter cry it out if he wakes up more then once. Currently Carter gets up 2 or 3 times during the night. This will be interesting. Dad may have to block the bedroom door. After watching him cry during his shots today Mom may not have the heart to start "operation tough love" tonight.
Now for the fun part - Carter's 4 month's stats:
Weight: 17 lbs. 12 oz. (89%)
Height: 25.75 inches (71%)
Head: 17 inches (68%)

My trip to Michigan

Mom and Dad took me to Michigan this weekend. It was my first long road trip (5 hours!). I was a pretty good traveler. I spent most of the car ride sleeping and playing with Nana (Grandma Fearrin) in the backseat.

Mom and Dad went to Evan and Katie Huizenga wedding on Friday night. Congratulations to the beautiful couple! While they were at the reception I got to spend quality time with my great-aunts, great-uncles, my mom's cousins and of course Nana. So many new faces!

Saturday I spent a lot of time with my family. I loved all the aunts fussing over me. They are so sweet! They even took me to a neighborhood party/picnic. It was a lot of fun. I enjoyed listening to the DJ and chillin' outside with everyone.

4 months = new toy

For months Dad has been waiting for Carter to be old enough to play in the bouncer. Actually Kyle assembled this toy with over 2 months left in the pregnancy. To his delight the day finally came when Carter could test it out. Although he could barely touch the floor or reach the toys, he really enjoyed it. I have a feeling this toy might be a favorite over the next couple of months.

Nana's Photos

Nana (Grandma Fearrin) took some really cute pics of Carter. We just couldn't resist posting them.

Buddies

Carter hung out with his buddy, Nate Bolles, today while the moms (and James Kelker) hung out in the pool.
Gotta love summer afternoons!
