4 Months

Oliver is 1/3 of a year old!
At his 4 month check up he weighed 14 pounds 1 ounce, and 25.5 inches tall. My favorite part is that his doctor gave the okay for him to have rice cereal! He has been burning through milk like crazy and its really hard for me to keep up, which also brings the sad news that he had formula:(
My wonderful sister-in-law (photographer) came to town and took this adorable picture, I find myself just staring at it. He is so smiley, he smiles all the time I love it!

Oliver is really finding his voice, he jabbers all the time. Even in the morning now when he wakes up instead of crying he sings! Occasionally I swear he says HI!

He is getting chubbier and you just have to munch him! He is also grabbing at toys, and loves to hold your fingers while he eats.

One thing I'm not quite ready for is rolling over. I like that I can lay him on the bed and not worry that he will fall off. But that too must come to an end. He hasn't quite made it all the way over, but he really wants to. He also wants to stand and look at everything. I can't believe how strong those chubby little legs are.

No teeth yet! Turns out the things I thought were teeth are not. They are cyst things that are not harmful.

Today I tried the rice cereal, he loved it. Although he really didn't get the spoon thing, he did a good job for his first time.

Love this little man, his smile just melts my heart!
