Asher: 4 Months

Asher's 4 month "birthday" was December 18th.  We celebrated by taking him to his 4 month check-up first thing Thursday morning and getting him his vaccines.  His weighed in at 14lb 5oz (25%) and is 2ft tall (21%) and drum roll please...his head circumference is 17.44" (99%).

 

Asher is a fantastic little brother!  He is a pretty easy going kid and despite some challenges in the feeding and sleeping departments this month, he is doing fantastic.  His daytime schedule for the most part has remained the same -- gets up around 7 and eats every 2 to 3 hours and is ready for bed around 8.  Last month I was happy to report he had slept through the night several times, well we had a little regression and I no longer need to wake him up to squeeze in extra feedings...he is waking up sometimes 3 and 4 times a night now...joy!? Hopefully this phase is very short lived, but seeing he is almost 5 months when I writing this post I can already tell you that it has lasted more than a month! He has started really grabbing for toys, loves to play on his activity mat and grab for his toes.  He is wearing a size 2 diaper and 3-6 month clothing.

 

We love our little Brother Bear!
