It seems like just yesterday we were checking into the hospital!  Your 4 month check up went well – you are in the 50th % for weight (just under 14 lbs), 90th % for height (right at 26″), and 90th for head size (17″!) – that’s so you have room for that super smart brain of yours!  🙂

The doctor said we could start giving you rice cereal so we tried it yesterday.  We mixed it as the directions stated and it was very wattery so we put it in a bottle and went that route.  You didn’t seem to mind it…or even notice it was there but your tummy was pretty big afterwards!  We are going to ease into it with maybe one cereal bottle per day for a bit.

We are so very thankful that you are such a GREAT baby!  Most notably, we are  appreciative of your sleeping habits.  We’ve established a bath, bottle, bed routine that usually has you going down for the night around 9pm.  I usually have to wake you up to feed before I go to work around 6:30am!  And on the weekends…you sleep yourself right through to 8am or 9am!  It’s AWESOME!  We are just going to enjoy it while it lasts…

It’s been a football watchin’ weekend!  Yesterday Dave, Allison, and Ethan came over to watch Iowa State get whooped up on in a horrible loss to Iowa.  Today, we’ve got some friends, Sarah & Collin, coming over to watch the Cowboys beat (hopefully) Tampa Bay!  You wore your Iowa state bib yesterday, the one your Godparents Jeremy & Stacey, bought for you.  And you’ve already got your pink “Future Dallas Cowboys Cheerleader” onsie on for today’s game!
