Lil P

You know, I use to think, "I'll be so glad when I can finally stay at home. I'll have all this time and I'll always be caught up on my blogging." *Phish* Boy was I wrong! Patton sure keeps me busy! I love it though!

Sam's sister, Sarah, took some pics of Patton a few weeks ago and I think they turned out so cute! Not that we're biased or anything! ;)

Patton had his 4 month check-up last week! The doctor said that he looked perfect, which of course we already knew! :). Here are his stats:

Length: 25.5 inches (75th percentile)

Weight: 15 lbs, 3.6 oz (60th percentile)
Head circumference: 16.5 inches (50th percentile)

Patton is still completely obsessed with his hands and fingers! He constantly has them in his mouth. He's recently learned how to wiggle his fingers. It's so cute to see him staring at his fingers as he's wiggling them. He's also getting to the point where he grabs things and immediately puts them in his mouth. Ah, and thus it begins!

Facts about Patton at 4 months:

He's a pretty strong boy!

He's got a KILLER grip and his neck and back are pretty strong. In fact, our doctor was really impressed by how well he can sit supported.

He loves to stand in our laps

He loves tummy time, but he's not rolling over yet. He's working on it.

Patton LOVES watching TV! He'll talk right back to the people on the TV!

He talks ALL the time: in his sleep, as he's eating, in the car, in the grocery store, as I'm changing his diaper. This boy LOVES to talk! I wonder who he got that from? ;)

He is one extremely loved boy! We're so glad that he's a part of our family!
