Jude at 4 months

Jude had his 4 month check up this morning. He's 17 lbs 11 oz and 26.5 inches long. I couldn't find James' 4 month stats so I compared with his 6 month numbers. Jude is the EXACT same size James was at 6 months. We knew he was chunky but wow, he's big. He got two shots and one oral vaccine. He cried pretty hard but calmed down quickly. He's still a super sweet baby. He still enjoys talking with us and his brothers. He loves being in his exersaucer and will chill there quite content if football is on TV. We need to pull out the Jumparoo and see how he enjoys that. I'm sure it will be a hit just like it was with James and John. He's not rolling yet but he pushes up with his hands during tummy time and pulls his legs in and gets to his side when he's laying on his back. I'm sure it won't be long before he starts rolling over. We'll probably be starting solids soon as he is definitely showing interest. He watches us when we eat and looks like he really wants a bite. It's time to get the high chair down from the attic and give it a good cleaning. He's been chewing on his fingers lately and drooling lots so I'm pretty sure teeth will be on their way soon. He still has blue grey eyes that change color depending on what he's wearing. Overall, he's a really happy baby who's content to do whatever the rest of us are doing. We're so lucky that he's just fit into our family so effortlessly. I'll post some pictures of him tomorrow.
