4 Months

Our little man turned 4 months last week, and yesterday he went in for his check-up. I'm pleased to report that he is growing great, though a little underweight. He's longer and lighter than Olivia was at the same age, but the doctor's not worried about it right now. I can't believe how much he has grown and changed in just the last few months!
Clockwise from top left: Birth, 4 months, 3 months, 2 months, 1 month


Aidan has such a happy personality. He smiles so much, especially when Olivia is in view:) He loves it when she talks and sings to him, and watches her when she dances around the room like the crazy nut she is. He loves his swing, but he's still not a big fan of tummy time. Yesterday he figured out how to solve that problem, though. He figured out how to get from back to front a couple of weeks ago, but yesterday he managed the reverse. He's also become very attached to his little blue blanket, just like Olivia's night-night. She has always made sure that he had it whenever we went anywhere. He likes to rub it all over his face, then leave it there while he falls asleep (yes, I make sure he can still breathe!)

And a little comparison of the two of them at 4 months:
Aidan is currently 12lbs, 4 oz and 25.25 in long. Olivia was 13lbs, 8oz and 24.75 inches. Look at those faces, they are definitely siblings!

  1. This is awesome! Adleigh and Tristan are the same way with their loveys- we call them their "monkey's" though. :-) Adleigh is also smaller than Tristan was but longer- wonder if it's a 1st vs 2nd kid thing? Interesting!

    1. I wonder if it is. It would be interesting to compare with other groups of kids. Yeah, Liv started calling hers night-night (I always just said blankie) and it stuck:)
