rolling over, rice cereal and babbleing oh my

We had our 4 month check up with the doctor on the 7th. Found out baby Creighton is 24 1/2 inches tall and 13 1/2 pounds. This month he started wearing 3-6 months clothes and increased to size 2 diapers.

He started eating rice cereal from the very first time I offered it and is enjoying it twice a day!


He also is enjoying tummy time more and started to roll over (I couldn't believe it but I was able to catch the first time on video.



He has discovered his feet and legs and now touches them with his hands. If he is laying on his back playing with a toy and he drops it by his feet, he will raise his legs to get the toy up to his arms. I think it is so cool.

Also, he started babbling more this month. He is still doing it when he wakes up in the morning or from a nap, he talks to the animals on his crib bumper. I think it's so cute! But also started babbling when he is playing through out the day.



Creighton went on his first walk on the greenbelt (its a path next to the Boise river) with Tim, Bailey and I on the 3rd. We all enjoyed an afternoon at Municipal Park with Shannon and friends on the 4Th.

Creighton and I attended the roller derby tournament on the 5th. He decided to take a nap during the first bout but once he woke up he seemed to really enjoy watching the next bout.

Creighton received a visit from his Godparents on the 14th.

This month Creighton has been awake on our daily stroller rides to the park with Bailey, so we started bringing a blanket and he enjoys watching Bailey fetch the ball.

Tim was out of town for over half this month so Creighton and I spent time at home in Boise but we are headed up to McCall with Tim on the 27th. With fire season winding down we will probably spend most of our time next month in McCall.

Here is the link to the photos for this month.
