Well it's official, I have a baby 1/3 of a year old...4 Months...16 weeks (that makes him sound not so old). Time has completely flown and I just can't believe it!!
Baby H is weighing in at 15 pounds 11 ounces (55%), and 25 inches long (41%), and his head size is in the 94%. No wonder he does not like doing tummy time.
That has been our most recent adventure with this little boy. He will do tummy time using the boppy, sitting in his bumbo, or just sitting up. However, he hates...HATES laying flat on the floor. I guess as long as the other tasks are making him engage his back and neck muscles life could be all well.
We recently have started to use toys to try to peek his interest. He could pretty much care less about any toy. What he really wants is his blanket/burp rag to chew on. He loves just chewing on anything and everything cloth. Teething rings, not so much. We'll get there though.
Speaking of teeth. The doctor said that one of his canine teeth appears to be coming in. If this is the case, it'll be the first for our pediatrician. In addition to this tooth possibly coming in, he also is having mucus sacks hardening on his gums. I've learned that this is not uncommon. Most mom's think that this is where the tooth is appearing, and then disappearing after a week or so. That is not the case, instead the baby mimics teething to then burst these sacks.
I love this little boy to death. I can't believe how much he's changed our lives. I'm looking forward to the next month with him and what it has to bring, including family visits to Indiana and Thanksgiving.
