Dane had his 4 month check up this morning...he weighed in at 16lbs, 10 oz and 26 inches long. He continues to be in the 90th percentile for height and the 75th for weight. He was a real trooper with his shots...kind of whimpered on the first one and cried for just a minute with the second. We get to start him on cereal tonight so I'm sure we'll have some funny pictures and video footage to show very soon! He has mastered rolling onto his tummy but that is as far as he gets, he can't roll back. Most of the time when we check on him or get him from a nap or in the morning, he's on his tummy. He seems to sleep better that way because his naps have gone from 1 hour to around 2 hours. He's in such a fun stage and he is so mesmerized by everything around him. He reaches for things now and seems to know what he's doing with his hands. He loves his bath and splashes around in it for as long as we let him. We're checking into baby swim classes to see if he truly is a water bug. He loves to sit up (always assisted) and thinks he's pretty big stuff. The Dr. did confirm that he is NOT teething and that the classic symptoms of teething generally start at around 4 months, even if they aren't actually getting any at that point in time.

I can't believe how much he looks like Andon in that picture!
