Mason had his 4 month check up this week. He weighed in at 18lbs and Heidi forgot the height. He's in the ninetith percentile for both weight and height. Kid's an ox. He's been smiling a ton and, as Heidi says, "talking a bunch too. Nolan's been really good to his little brother, always wanting to know where Mason's at. Our doctor gave us the green light to start him on rice cereal so Heidi experimented with that this morning. He got a few bites in before being over it.
Mason's been sleeping relatively well; some nights he sleeps through the night and some nights he wakes up around 3AM for a brief feeding. We consider ourselves pretty lucky considering what we went through with Nolan. Heidi's been working with him on "tummy time" but it seems like he just wants to skip the whole crawling thing and move on to standing up and walking. I can't blame him though. He sees Nolan zinging by every ten seconds and just wants to get in the mix.
Mason's mom and dad continue to discover the idiosyncrasies of "life with two," sometimes feeling way overwhelmed and sometimes feeling really blessed. In the end though, it's all good!
