4 months & counting

Crosby had his 4 month dr. appt about 10 days ago and he will be 5 months old in a couple days....sorry for the delayed update.  Here it is:

Height     27 inches (90%)
Weight    18.5 lbs (90%)
Head        42.9 cm (50%)

This week he found his voice so it has been interesting watching him get excited and actually making some noise.  He loves being upright, hates laying down / being held like a baby.  Crosby does great in the swing, the exersaucer and the jump-a-roo.  This week he has been a sleeping champ, almost 7 straight hours which is about double from what we are programed for. We introduced rice cereal this week and it has been hit or miss depending on his mood but does well with it at the sitters house.

Parker loves his little brother more than anything (except maybe dinosaurs).  We are lucky that he is so good with the little one, especially now that they share a room in the temp home.   Last night Parker and dad went tubing down the snowhill and we went faster and farther than all the other kids (we've got at least 100 lbs on them) and Parker let them hear about it.  It was pretty funny to hear him trash talk the other kids about how much faster we were than them.  I love the competitive spirit, now we just need to channel it.
