Oliver - Four Months Old

I can't believe how behind I am on this!! (I'm back-dating this but actually posting it on Nov 5!)


At Oliver's 4 month appointment he was 6.47kgs and 64cm long. 

Ok, let's just get right into it. I'm actually not even sure I remember everything I would have wanted to add!


How I found him after his nap one time

Having a snooze on daddy



Being a good big sister
 Pretty much eating and sleeping is same as usual. Still a tummy sleeper during the day, back sleeper at night. Goes to bed like a charm. Naps might need a few bum pats, but nights I can usually just feed him and put him down (still awake) and he'll sleep). Maybe once every couple of weeks I'll have to do a bit more, but usually it's just replacing his binky or picking him up and burping him if he needs to burp.

One exciting thing in this month was rolling over front to back on Sept 17, so just after he turned 4 months. At the beginning of the month he actually was hardly lifting his head when he was on his tummy - he would just lay down his head and chill out like that.  But then one day after he woke from a nap, I looked in his bassinet and his head was WAY up reading the warning label.  That got me thinking, so then I put him on the floor, on his tummy, with a book propped in front of him and that revolutionized tummy time. BUT then the next day he learned to roll onto his back from his tummy haha.

FINALLY starting to lift his head... to read the warning label on hos bassinet

So this got me thinking, proped a book up for him and up goes his head!

His tempermant as always is pleasant and happy. Giggles just by looking at you. Laughs at the slightest tickles or singing or kissing his cheeks. And the hair - still can't get over his hair (and neither can anyone else!)
He brings out the best in her

Having a little fun with back wrapping

Finding his hands... he likes the thumb in his mouth but not the finger in his eye
