4 Month Check-Up

Alex had his 4 Month Check-up today and is growing like a weed! :) He is now 15 lbs 13 ozs (50%) and 24.5" (30%). He gained 2.5 lbs and grew 2 inches since his 2 Month Check-up. Dr. Joyce was very pleased to see how he's progressing and very happy to see some of the new things he's doing (clasping his hands together, strong control of his head and torso, trying to stand on his own, attempting to hold his own bottle). She also commented on how chatty and social he is -- that is when Emily is quiet (that's only when she's sleeping nowadays). :)

(Note that in this first picture you can actually see his tooth -- a lot better than the last picture posted!)
