4 Month Update

Would you believe our little man is already 4 months old?!?!  Hard to believe how much can happen in such a short period of time!  Evan had his 4 month check-up and shots on June 23rd.  He's growing like a little weed!  His official weight is 16.5 pounds and he's 26.5 inches tall (up 4.5 pounds and 2.5 inches in the past 2 months).  He was very brave throughout the appointment...the shots are always harder for me than they are Evan.

We had our first spoon feeding experience last week...messy but fun!  He's swallowed a little bit, but 4 tries in, he still putting most of it on his Bumbo seat.
Other developments in Evan's skills include reaching down and grabbing both feet with his hands.  The then pulls them up as far as he can towards his mouth (which isn't very far...but he tries).  So cute!  It resembles an awkward yoga pose preformed by a pot-bellied first-timer...but he's pretty proud of himself and JJ and I get a kick out of watching him.  Evan loves having his diaper off and rolling from side to side as well as staring into mirrors and admiring his handsome self.  He's been trying very hard to sit up, but isn't quite there yet (his 'abs' just aren't strong enough).  It's amazing how much he's grabbing, 'talking', singing and SMILING!  The boy loves to smile and laugh...we are so blessed with such an amazing and loving little guy!
