Reese is 4 Months Old!

This sweet little man turned 4 months old on Friday, February 17th. 

He is a happy, happy baby!

Today he had his 4 month dr appointment.  We knew he was growing fast and his 3 month clothes no longer fit, but we didn't know quite how big he was.......

Our little man weighed in at 18 lbs (95th%) and 27 inches long (97th%)!

Wow!  He is bigger than Dane was at 6 months! 

Daddy is excited to think he just might be a football player!

I had to do a little shopping for some clothes for our growing boy!

He is wearing mostly 6 month clothes, but I bought 9 month clothes today!

Reese got two shots and he didn't even whimper.

We couldn't believe it, neither could the nurse.

We always have to give him Tylenol after shots though, because a few hours later they always hurt him.

Reese is taking four 8 oz bottles a day and he takes them without any problem at all!

Dr. Anderson told us to start him on cereal and in the next few weeks we will add fruits and veggies.

Reese continues to be a sleepy little guy...growing big and strong is hard work!  He goes to bed by 7:30 every night and is a good sleeper.  I wake him up at 6:00 am to eat and get ready for the day and he is back asleep by 6:45!  It is funny because he also takes a cat nap at 6:30 every evening, wakes up at 7:00 to take a bath and get in his pjs, and then it is back to bed for the night.

Reese joined us at the table in his high chair for the first time last week.  He loved it!  He played with his toys while we ate and was entertained by Dane. 

He loves his big brother and just smiles and laughs when he comes around.  The deer in the headlights look that he used to get as Dane approached is starting to fade.  They watch TV together every morning and Dane will entertain him with singing, dancing, and sometimes playing the drums.  I can't wait to watch them grow up together.  I just love it when Dane tells me, "Mommy, Reese is my friend."

Our sweet, sweet boy!  We love you so much!
