ALSO the eagle has landed!

TaaaaahhhDAAAAHHHH!!! Hurlee rolled over from his back to his belly today. Doesn't he look proud?? *sigh* They grow up so fast

Four Month Checkup

Well as you can see from the first picture, Hurlee is in full blown teething, chewing on everything. And as for the second.... he was just too cute in his parka not to share. Our apartment was smelling pretty funky on a chilly day so we bundled him up and opened all the windows. He's even waving (well kinda).

Today was Hurlee's four month checkup and he is

27 1/2 inches long (in the 95th percentile) and 17 pounds even (the 90th percentile) and Dr.

Nunez said his head was perfectly proportionate (50th percentile). All looked well and he was impressed with how active our little man was is. He prescribed something for his ecsema and recommended a prescription for his reflux. I passed on the reflux prescription because the drug

doesn't help with the reflux just eases the pain. I went with another route he recommended, introducing rice cereal into his diet so hopefully that helps. So on the way home I picked some Happy Bellies organic brown rice cereal

up and mixed it with some breast milk. Hmm... judging by the pictures he still needs to work on eating by spoon. He kept pushing out most of it, so hopefully tomorrow it goes better :]

exersaucer

Well Hurlee and I have had a fun morning and afternoon. During his nap I took the plunge and assembled his Baby Einstein exersaucer. He is still a little too small for it, but he looks adorable in it. He can reach the bottom with his tippy toes and loves trying to eat the orange sun/flower thing. He hasn't quite figured out how to play with anything on it yet, but I can tell he likes the change of scenery. After his "morning workout" we went to lunch with his Grandpa and had a great time. Although teething, he's been a sweetheart. Can't wait for Shawn to come home and admire my handywork on the exersaucer.

My little man is also so incredibly close to rolling over!! He can comfortably roll over onto his

side. It's just a matter of time til he is a fully executing rolling machine. Aside from that, no real new tricks. He is giggling like a mad man lately which is ADDDDOOORRABBLLEE. I like to tickle his little chest and he thinks it's hilarious.

The Jones apartment is also looking a little different these days, aside from the abundance of baby things, we have a couple new additions - a coffee table, entertainment center and two end tables (all matching!). Since Shawn and I first got married he's been wanting a coffee table but either our apartment or bank account was too small but we finally did it. HURRAY! Pictures to come :)

silly boys

Shawn and Hurlee made up a dance :)

rolling over

Hurlee rolling over is still a definite work in progress. I try putting him on his back, side, tummy and he is just content hanging out in that position. Maybe it's good he's not mobile yet?? He sure looked cute while we were practicing though.
