"Say Ahhhh!"

Easton had his 4 month check-up on Thursday and his doctor was checking his eyes and ears and when she went to check his mouth he opened and said "ahhhh!"  It was hilarious!  The doctor couldn't believe it, she told me I should be sure to put that in his baby book!  Again she said he's more like a 6 month old than a 4 month old because of how active he is.  He managed to rip the paper off the table and by the time we left it was in a huge crumbled ball from all his kicking and moving around.  He's doing great though she said.  He's in the 60% for both weight (15 lbs 4 oz.)  and height (25 in.) and his noggin' is still in the 90th%!  I thought he was going to be higher for weight because he went through a big growth spurt after he was sick but turns out he's right on track!  We met his new friend Hudson over the weekend who is so tiny and cute and was only 7 days old so that also made him seem huge!  Easton is going to have lots of friends to play with - all of our friends have had or are having boys - it's going to be so much fun as they get older!  Trouble!!


Putting everything in his mouth these days!

He is talking our ears off lately and just continues to be a mover and a shaker!  Every night when he wakes up he's completely turned around in his crib with his head pressed up against the bars!  So, even in his sleep he's a wild man!  He's trying so hard to crawl during tummy time and has seemed to master the reverse army crawl (he lays on his back and scoots himself around).
Finally big enough for the jumper...well, with a pillow underneath!


In other news, Jake got to be one of the lucky state employees who gets to keep working during the shutdown so we're extremely grateful for that!  :)
