4 Months Old




Colt was 4 months old last Thursday. Time has really flown by, but I am soaking up every minute with both boys. I took Colt to his 4 month check up and here are his stats...


Weight: 15 lbs 12 oz (75th percentile)

Height: 25 3/4 inches (50-75th percentile)


He has rolled over from belly to back several times, but is perfectly happy not rolling over :). He adores Lane and watches his every movement and smiles and "talks" at his big brother. He enjoys being outside, in his stroller, and playing with Lane. While on his belly he can scoot forward with his arms(early crawler in our future)! Oh dear! Overall Colt has been a very laid back baby!
I am thrilled to say that I am taking the first 9 weeks off from this new school year. I do love my job, but am happy to spend a little more time at home with Lane and Colt. We are having a difficult time getting Colt to take a bottle. Anyone have any suggestions? Lane was much easier to get to take a bottle, Colt prefers not to take a bottle. Any suggestions are greatly appreciated...I have 9 weeks to get this worked out :)

Enjoy your time at home. I don't have any good advice for the bottle. The pictures are too cute!! Love the one with Colt and Lane.

Thank you girls! We have switched to Avent bottles and he is taking them better than the Playtex. Hopefully he will continue!
