Reed-4 Months {a little late}

So my plan to post Reed's monthly update on time every month just didn't work out this month. Maybe next time. The 4th month has been all about smiling! All. the. time. He also laughed his sweet little laugh for the first time. What a sweet sound! He sleeps form about 7:00 to 6:30 or 7:00 in the morning. That's great but he does not sleep much at all during the day. If I'm lucky he'll nap for about an hour in his swing. Hopefully that will change. At his 4 month check -up he weighed 15 lbs. (90th percentile) and was 24 1/2 inches long (75th percentile). Big boy!  He obviously eats well!  Since the new recommendation is to wait until 6 months for solids he hasn't had any "real food" yet. I think we'll probably try some in the next week or so. Don't think I can wait until 6 months.

He's wearing mostly 6 month clothes and size 2 diapers. He doesn't wear shoes so who knows about that.  He likes his exersaucer and has started trying to grab toys now. Everything goes in his mouth. This has been such a fun month with Reed. I can't wait to see what his 5th month brings!
I could just squeeze those chubby little legs!
Smiley boy with his bunny.
