4 Months Old!

Our "little" boy is now 4 months old! He has changed so much in the last month. Two weeks ago he was 15.5 lbs. Here are some of the things he's doing now at 4 months:

-He's wearing 3-6 months clothing now.

-He still sleeps about 12 hours total at night and usually wakes up 2 times or so to eat...we're starting some sleep training using The No-Cry Sleep Solution book because this mama can't handle the idea of "crying it out."

-We're still working on extending his naps and it is going well.

-We have a lot of work to do still...we have to break him of sleeping with the swaddle, sleeping on his podster, and sleeping in our room at night. Here's a pic of his escape trick:
-He still loves his activity mat and is also now playing in his exersaucer.
-His happy places are the changing table, the bathtub, and outside.

-He loves going for walks in his stroller.He still isn't a big fan of tummy time.

-He's still only rolling from tummy to back, and he's pretty lazy about doing that. I guess it's hard work rolling his chunkiness over!

-He still loves his hands and loves looking at them, grabbing things, and sticking them in his mouth (to the point of gagging sometimes too!).
-He has also recently discovered his thumb and just might become a thumb sucker.
-He found his feet and loves grabbing them. He's even managed to put his toes in his mouth! His new discovery makes diaper changes easier!
-He's babbling a lot and says "hey" to me when he first wakes up in the morning.

-I believe he may be in the beginning stages of teething. He's drooling everywhere and loves to chew on things.

-He loves watching Ruby and GiGi and laughs when they wrestle or chase each other.

Here are some photos and a video from his 4 month photoshoot:
