4 month appt...

Lukey had his 4 month check-up and shots on Monday (Nov. 8th). 

His stats are:  17 lbs 3 oz :) and 26 1/4 long...he is still in the 90% for height and weight!  We absolutely love our big guy!!!  Of course Adam is loving that Luke is in the 90% for height...but the dr. kind of shut him down by saying he doesn't see him staying in the 90% for good...but hey, you never know! 

Luke did wonderful with his shots! He had the one that they drink and 3 in his thighs...I definitely think the extra rolls worked in his favor!  He got a little irritated with the first one, but never shed a tear!  What a tough guy :)  The shots don't seem to phase him too much throughout the day...most people say that their kiddos come home and sleep a lot...not our Lukey! haha...he just has too much going on...and he doesn't want to miss out!  That brings me to our next subject of talk with the dr...NAPS!  Luke is really not into napping...(again there is just too much going on ;)  I am really trying to let him cry some at nap time because he is much happier when he gets rest, but the dr explained that he may just be a cat napper...so we will keep working on it...instead of 2 good naps a day Luke takes several cat naps. 

Our next big adventure was cereal...I have been so excited to give Luke something besides a bottle and its finally here!  We tried out rice cereal a few days before the doctor appt...he seemed to catch right on. (big surprise ;)  After his appt. the doctor said we could mix some baby foods into the cereal...so far he has tried bananas, green beans, and sweet potatoes!  The bananas were a total hit, he liked the green beans (but he did wake up both nights after the green beans so we are gonna skip those and try again later), and I don't think he was a big fan of the sweet potatoes...




first time eating cereal...



 cute colts guy in his litte warm-up!

Luke is totally into grabbing for EVERYTHING! 

We now have to be careful if he is at the table with us because he will pull and grab at our plates and bowls :) 



eyeing the chips...



grabbing the chips...



licking a chip...haha



trying out the sippy cup...did pretty good :) liked playing with it more than anything...whatever it takes to be entertained!



not so sure about these sweet potatoes

 

spitting it all out, but I am still happy!



3 months...halloween...4 months...

Its crazy how time flies...

Luke is changing everyday!  Man does he keep us busy :)  He loves to scream...sometimes it is hard to tell if it is a happy or mad scream because they are both the same...lol.  He has definitely discovered his voice!  He continues to love the tub :)  His little wiggles have turned to bigger splashes that get his mommy wet...could get ugly once he gets a little bigger! 

He is a wild man! I LOVE IT! ;)

Luke had his first cold and ear infection...it has been about a 3 week deal so we are glad he is on the mend :)  He had a cold for 2 weeks and then it turned into an ear/sinus infection...bummer!  I love takin' care of that little man though...I will take the extra snuggles anytime ;)

Here are a few pics of Luke over the last month:

Luke is 4 months old today!!!!! I just can't believe it!  They really do grow up  so fast! ;)  It just keeps getting more fun though...everyday is a new adventure...he has such a little personality!
