That's right, Dalton turned 4 months old today! We can't believe how fast time has gone and can't imagine life without him. He is getting so fun too! He is laughing and smiling a ton! Once 3 months hit, his personality really started to show. He went to the doctor for his 4 month shots on Friday. Travis had to take him alone since I was still at work. What a cool daddy!!! Anyway, Dalton is almost 17 pounds and is 25 1/2 inches long. Some of his 6 month clothes are short now! Seems like he grows daily, which I suppose he probably does!
I put him in his positioner chair today for the first time. He is so strong he has no trouble sitting up, but after a while he starts tilting to one side, usually the left. He would look up at me, as if to say, "Little help here Mom!" Too cute!
Oh, yeah, forgot to mention, the lil guy is teething...so it is now DROOL GALORE!!!! It is as if the faucet turned on! Plus everything now goes in the mouth! One of his new favorite moves is to grab my hand and pull it to his mouth to chomp on my finger. I can certainly feel the difference on his gums.
Bathtime has just gotten more interesting!!! Tonight he started SPLASHING!!! It was a hoot! I have a short video but am having trouble posting it...so suppose you'll just have to imagine it and take a close look at the shot below...He managed to splash his face a ton and didn't seem to mind.
Hope to post more soon! Off to bed soon hopefully...fingers crossed for a full night's sleep!
Wow! 17 pounds! He would totally clobber Linus in a wrestling match ;)
ReplyDeleteWhat a little charmer you have on your hands. Dalton's got a smile that would melt the coldest of hearts. Ladies, watch out!
ReplyDeleteBTW, did you wonder why so many people gave you bibs for baby shower gifts? I swear we got at least 25, and I was like, 'How many stinkin' bibs can one baby possibly need!!' Well, now I know. They put them on two at a time at daycare in attempt to keep up with Finn's leaky mouth faucet!
What a cute little chunky monkey! Temana finally hit 20 lbs at 17 months. Have fun with the teething - once it starts they seem to just keep coming. But on the up side, they can eat a lot more once they have teeth.
