4 month check up & shots

Practicing his Michael Jackson moves while we waited for Dr.Jackson

Ollie had his 4 month check up today! I had a love hate relationship with our pediatricians office until now. We loved the staff but didn't feel the pediatrician was our style. Now Ollie see's Dr.Jackson. He's animated, funny and makes Ollie smile. My favorite thing about him is that he explains what he's doing during the exam and what his findings are. I was dead set on Ollie only getting one shot today, how quickly that changed. After the last round of shots I was not wanting another overly fussy baby for 2 weeks. I started Ollie on Tylenol before our appointment and so far so good. Every four hours he gets another dose. Dr.Jackson said since he was only getting two shots today, he should do better. Even though they tricked me into the third vaccine being a drink.... 

Little boys growing fast!

26.5 inches tall -  91st percentile

17.1 lbs- 75th percentile

17 inch head- 85th percentile

He's so tall! I'm not sure where he gets it from! Jonny and I are so short/average! So glad we don't have to go back until his 6 month visit in June :)

Happy boy!

Ollie's first Easter (18 weeks)

First picture with the Ester Bunny! (4-7-12)

Even though Jonny and I aren't very religious, the plan is for Ollie to grow up with traditions. I think they are the most important. We decided we will each teach him a little about our family's religions and let him make the decision from there. In a few years it will be much easier for Jonny to teach him about passover. For now, we're having fun with the Easter Bunny!

Meeting a furry friend

Saturday we had a nice walk around Kierland. We grabbed some coffee and let Ollie play in the fountains. He loved splashing in the water! Now that he's getting older, the plan is to do at least one family outing a weekend when Jonny is home. We also got Ollie's first picture with the Easter Bunny! Wow, those bunny's must make a fortune! $30 bucks for a few pictures? I convinced Jonny that it was worth the memory alone :) We also met some people who were walking around their real bunnies on leashes.... kinda cute. The lady told me she's gotten little gifts here and there from Juicy Couture and Coach from just taking her bunnies by. I need to get me a bunny STAT!

If he can't put it in his mouth, he's not interested!

4 months old :)

Yesterday (April 2nd) was a great day! I turned 25, a quater of a century...my baby boy turned 4 months old, quarter of a year. I got the best birthday present ever! My little guy belly laughed for the first time! Such a sweet sound... I play the video over and over. He's pretty stingy with his giggles though. He makes us really work for them!

Last weekend Ollie went to grandma's by himself. I missed him sooo much! It was so weird sleeping without cuddling him. I'm so happy to have him home. I feel like he changed so much in just 2 days! I snuggled him all night on Sunday to make up for our time appart. So good to have him home! I love going to work and having a break. Even leaving him to work out in the afternoon is easier now. But I LOVE having him to come home too.

These last two weeks he's become way more coordinated. He holds his teething ring in his mouth... even though he sometimes gets too excited and gags himself. He's even been sitting up all on his own too! Still a bit wobbly but I'll take it! Rolling from side to side on his play mat is also a new favorite thing! This whole mommy thing just keeps getting better :)

We go to Ollie's 4 month check up on the 12th. We're thinking they'll let us start him on some baby food. I can't wait to start making it and to try out our baby bullett! I'm just dreading the shots again! Yuck!

Chillen with daddy!
