4 month check-up

Yesterday we took lil man for his 4 month check-up. He is 17lbs 8oz and 26 inches long. He's in the 90th percentile for both height and weight, and in the 75th percentile for the circumference for his head. He also had to have his shots. I personally hate needles and wasn't the room his first set of shots at 2 months but I was this time and man did he turn red. I've never seen anyone get that red in my entire life. But he stopped crying after the nurse left the room. He was a little fussy last night. I think he's developing pretty well, he'll roll from side to side, track us, he loves his hands. He's starting to communicate a bit more aside from just crying, he'll coo and hum and scream (at different volumes). He has the best smile and he chuckles from time to time, and he kinda laughs but not the laugh you would expect from a baby. But all in all the doctor is happy with him and we can start rice cereal now mixed with breastmilk. I'm just excited about him developing.
