Jett at 4 Months

Sweet baby Jett you are 4 months old!

I absolutely cannot believe that you have already been in Mommy and Daddy's life for 4 months...times flies when you're having fun!

You already have developed such a little personality and you are an absolute joy to be around!  We love you more than we could ever put into words and we are so thankful everyday that God blessed us with you sweet baby boy!

We went to the doctor last week for your 4 month shots and checkup.
  • You weighed 13 pounds 14 ounces {30th percentile}
  • You were 24 1/4" long {25th percentile}
  • Your head measured 42 3/4 cm {60th percentile}
You are absolutely perfect!!
Here are some things that you are up to this month...
  • During the day you eat a breastmilk bottle every 3-4 hours.
  • We started cereal bottles this month for your last bottle of the night {and you were sleeping through the night} but we had to stop giving it to you because it was making your sweet little tummy hurt!
  • Now that you aren't having cereal you will sleep a 5-7 hour stretch at night before you get up for another bottle.
  • You are wearing a size 1 diaper.
  • You can still wear size 0-3 months in your sleeper sets, but the outfits that you wear in the day are primarily size 3 months.
  • You don't mind having tummy time for a little bit each evening and you have great control of your head...such a big boy!
  • You are spending a little time in your bumbo almost everyday and don't mind sitting up in it. 
  • You love laying on your play mat and looking at all the lights and reaching to try and grab the objects hanging down.
  • You have your fingers/hand in your mouth pretty much at all times these days...you think fingers are delicious!
  • You can almost roll over from your back to your tummy!  You can always get over on your side, but since you always have your hands in your mouth it makes turning all the way over a little difficult ;)
  • You have become so vocal over the past 2 weeks and we think your little voice is beautiful!
  • You are constantly smiling {with your mouth wide open} from the moment you wake up in the morning, you are such a happy boy!
  • Your new favorite thing to do is to lay on our bed with just a diaper on and dig your heels in, arch your back, and then scoot backwards.  You think it's so fun!
  • You still let me rock you to sleep and I love every second of it!

We love you with all of our hearts and can't imagine our lives without you!  Mommy wishes that you could stay her baby forever, but as you grow bigger we can't wait to see what milestones are ahead for you!
