4 Months Old

A couple of days late, but Adam is four months old! Today we had his well baby check, and everything looked great. Adam weighs 16 lbs 8 oz and is 25.5 inches long and is holding steady in the 70th percentile. We're not sure how he is so chubby because eating doesn't seem to be a big priority for him.

Here's what Adam is up to:
- Laughing and giving big smiles
- Screaming through tummy time (sorry little guy, it's good for you!)
- Loving his big sister and all the crazy activity she brings to the house
- Chewing on his stuffed cow
- Teething...will those two teeth ever pop?!
- Fitting into 6 month clothes

Happy 4 months old Adam!

Oh No!

Adam has been pretty miserable the last couple of days. We chalked it up to being a cold from exposure to new germs at daycare. Needless to say, I was surprised to get a report from our daycare provider today saying that Adam has two teeth pushing through his top gums.

Teething at 3 months!!! Let's just say that mom is not happy with this new development.
Wish us luck with new teeth!

So Big

I can't believe how big our kids are getting. Today I put on a 6 month sleeper on Adam, and it fit!

Elizabeth has made the switch out of diapers. She has been proud to be sporting underwear for 3 weeks, and I'm happy to report that I haven't cleaned pee off the floor for two weeks. Hooray for Elizabeth! (How we survived potty training with a newborn is a whole other story!) Next time you see Elizabeth make sure to ask about her underwear and in under 5 seconds her pants will be around her ankles. No modesty for that one!

They really do get big so fast!

Adam is 3 months today

Adam closes the short month of February as an official 3 month old. And a lot of good things have happened to him. He continues to feel better from the medicine that combats his acid reflux. Elizabeth still loves him and can frequently be heard asking at the sound of his crying, "What's the matter little guy?"

This is what Adam is up to at 3 months:
- Laughing and screaming
- Loves hanging out without clothes on
- Eating his hands and blankets
- Watching Elizabeth playing
- Avoiding naps
- Protesting bottles (which made for long days when mom went back to work on Monday)

Big Smile

Adam is a much happier baby with a bit of medication in his body. He also slept 10 hours last night, which has left him feeling chipper for the day. I had to wake up three or four times just to make sure he was breathing.

First Names

Elizabeth definitely keeps us entertained. In the last two months, she has become really interested in using our first names. Here are some lines we have heard in our house recently (keep in mind that they are coming from a two year old.)

"How was your day Mr. Grant?"
"Adam is puking, Samantha."
"I love you Joshua"
"Move over, Samantha is coming in."

This morning when I left Elizabeth at daycare, she said, "Bye Samantha." What a little goof.

Guess Who My Daddy Is

No denying that Adam is a Grant.
