A month of updates!
Connor had his 4 month doctor visit on April 30th. He weighed 10lbs 14 oz and is starting to reach the growth charts! He is in the 5th percentile for height, so we were excited to get on the charts. Dr. Beatty was happy with Connor's progress. Connor endured another series of vaccinations which is never a fun day, but he did very well.
We also started him on rice cereal which has been a fun adventure. He does not understand the eating from a spoon. It is funny because he tries to swallow with his mouth open and loses most of the cereal. He gets the cereal once a day and some days he cries the whole time so he doesn't really take any.
He is smiling and talking a lot now. He is almost rolling over, but that arm seems to get in the way. He grabs his toys and loves to play. Another funny thing about Connor these days is that he loves being naked! Whenever he gets his clothes changed or is getting ready for a bath, he is so happy. He smiles and coos at the cats too. He is still waking up at least once a night for feedings.
We have made two weekend trips with Connor this month too which have gone pretty well. We drove to Burlington, IA and stayed at Fun City for a wedding. The following weekend we traveled down to Springfield, MO for Aunt Becky's graduation. We drove at night which made the ride very easy. On the way home we stopped in St. Louis to visit the Zoo with Aunt Becky, Grandma and Grandpa and Great-Grandma Holmes.
Connor had his first ear infection last week. He had it in both ears, so he was not a happy boy.
