Rollin' Around

Gavin shocked us yesterday when he rolled himself over from his back to his belly without any help. He's been rolling over the other way when we work on his tummy time for a few weeks now, and he loves playing around on the floor. He has discovered his feet and tries to pull his toes into his mouth and pulls his socks off regularly. Today, while he was messing around on his back, he just pulled his feet up to his chest, rolled over onto his side, then arched his back and over he went onto his belly. I think he surprised himself as well. I had to flip him back over just to see if he could do it again and he did. That means he's getting stronger.

At his 4 month check up today (it's going by so fast...I can't believe he's already 17 weeks old!) anyways, he weighs 14 lbs 1 oz and he's 25 inches long. That puts him in the 50th percentile for babies his age. He's growing and changing so much. He wants to sit up now and look around and study his surroundings and laugh at his silly brother. He's holding his head up so well and starting to cut teeth. He's sleeping better at night too and will start eating some solid foods this next month. Amazing! We'll keep you posted as more things happen with this little guy!
