Michael David is getting bigger every day and every day I fall more in love with my little darling. Michael David is now 4 months old and so advanced according to his doctor. Michael is 26 inches long! putting him in the 82nd percentile for height and 15.06 lbs putting him in the 49th percentile for weight.
Some of Michael David’s milestones include:
Rolling over – tummy to back and back to tummy He’s trying to scoot although he’s not particularly fond of tummy time!

He is very talkative and often sings out.
He sucks his thumb and will chew on anything he can get his little hands on.
He had his first solid food on 11/19 which was oatmeal. He had no problems eating it although he didn’t seem to like the taste so much. Since then he’s had sweet potatoes and bananas both of which he enjoys very much. He’s had carrots and green beans – he gagged on the green beans, I gather he didn’t like the way those tasted at all!
Some of the cute things he does is stick his tongue out and blow raspberries – a trick his daddy taught him. He plays peek-a-boo, another trick he learned from dad. He pulls the blanket over his face, when you say “where’s Michael” he pulls the blanket down and bursts out into laughter.
He is a very active boy and enjoys playing in his little jump up toy and his exersaucer. He also loves to watch the wiggles.

Lately he’s become more of a mommy’s boy- which I love. When I walk by him in his jump up toy he jumps so high you think he may come out because he is so excited to see me. He will also stretch out both arms toward me to let me know he wants to be picked up!
He sighs really loud when he yawns and it is just darling.
He also LOVES his grandma Robbins and get’s so excited when he sees her in the morning.
He is absolutely fascinated by Aiden and enjoys watching Aiden running around and play with his toys. Aiden does a great job entertaining the baby and the two of them laugh and have a great time together.
Michael has lost the hair on either side of his head and now appears to have a true Mohawk. Of course everyone comments on how adorable it is. He’s also starting to get a bald spot on the back of his head. His hair is growing back in and appears to be blond – his eyes are also still blue.
Last night Michael slept for 5 consecutive hours!!!
