Tristin turned 4 months old on Monday! I was waiting until today to blog about it, since we were going to the doctor this morning for his check up. I knew he was a little chunker, but he actually wasn't as big as I was expecting. I thought for sure that he would be in the 90th percentile for everything, but I was wrong! His stats are:
Weight: 14lbs 10oz...50%
Height: 25.75"...67%
Head: Not sure what the measurement was but...50%
Dr. F said he was just perfect and that she might just take him home with her...I don't think so :) He is just the perfect little guy and we really couldn't ask for a better baby! Here are some of the things he is up to:
*Awesome sleeper! Usually goes to bed around 9:00 or 9:30 and then gets up between 1 and 2 and then will go back to sleep until around 5ish. When I feed him at 5, he will usually go back to sleep for another hour or two. This is just so much different than Tayson, who still loves to wake up about every 2 or 3 hours!
*Not rolling over yet! He is either being held or is in his swing or bouncy chair, so he really doesn't have a lot of opportunity. With Tayson around, we have to be really careful about laying him on the floor because you never know when Tiger is going to hit a ball his way!
*Loves to "talk"! He seems so much more vocal, at this point, then Tayson was. I'm not sure if I just don't remember back 2 years ago or what??
*Just started laughing and it melts my heart! I am convinced that hearing your kids laugh, is the best sound in the world!!
*Still being breastfed, around every 2 or 3 hours (prefers 2!)
*Loves his big brother! He will just sit and stare at Tayson. He is so amazed by what he is doing! I don't want him to grow up so fast but I know it is going to be so much fun to watch them play together.
*Just recently started sucking on his hands ALL.THE.TIME!
*Slobering A LOT!!! Dr. F said that she didn't think he was teething yet, but a lot of babies just start drooling around 4 months.
*Still wearing size 1 diapers
*Wearing 3-6 month clothes. Can still wear some 3 month things but also can wear some 6 month things too!
*Getting better about riding in his car seat! This still isn't one of his favorite things, but he isn't screaming the entire time, like he was!
*Still loves to take a bath! He has been in the pool once or twice now and loves that too.
*Been having some bathroom problems, as in...not going very often! (sorry...TMI) Dr. F said that this happens to breastfed babies a lot though.

Tristin sounds like a sweetie! I'm sure Tayson is a great big brother!
We LOVE McCoy's swingset. My in-laws got it for him and it has all the bells and whistles. I thought it would take a little while before he started using some of the parts but it didn't! It just took some getting used to and now he climbs all over it! It has a tunnel across the top, playhouse on top, slide,sandbox underneath, two swings, and hanging bars. It's definitely a good buy!
Wow Tristin, 4 months old already! He is a sweet baby...We need to do a play date now that Trigg is more responsive and a bit more into things.
Sounds like he is just perfect!
Trail has the same bathroom issues! I can't believe they're 4 months old. It's so funny that Trail started out bigger and is now smaller. It's amazing how they grow!
Oh, and I know how hard it is to give him tummy time. We have the same issues here!!! I'm amazed that Trail is rolling over b/c it's hard, but Brooklynn is older than Tayson so I'm sure it's EVEN harder for you! :)
Yay for Tristin!
Sounds like things are going really well!!!
Baby laughs are just the best, I can't wait to hear Kyah's laugh... You sound like things are going great for you!!!!
Sounds like he is doing great! He is such a sweet little baby. I can't believe he is already 4 months!!
Sorry I am just now commenting! Life has been CRAZY!!! It's almost hard to find time to blog lately (which I can't stand, b/c I love to blog for tracking milestones!)
Anyway - sounds like life with 2 babies is going great! T sounds like a doll and lucky you on getting that sleep! :)
Miss hearing from you!! Hope things are going great!
