4 month Stats

We went to the Dr. on monday and confirmed that Chasen in huge and healthy!
Weight: 16lbs 13oz
Height: 2'2 or 26 inches...I think 2'2 sounds funny :)
He is definatly changing rapidly
He loves to stand in his saucer and johnny jumper, kicks at all times
He chews on EVERYTHING, drools allot
He is super observant....always watching and soaking it all in...i just love that, it makes me stop and soak it all in too!
He smiles alllll the time, and is mastering the cutest giggle ever, he has also found his high pitched scream Im sure that will be on video soon.
He loves his high chair, its a great "baby sitter" I can do dishes and other house chores and he just watches.
We did try cereal last night, more for fun than anything, they say to wait till 6mo but if your child has:
doubled birth weight(X)
holds head up well(X)
is interested in watching you eat(X)
then you can try it. It has to be really runny so it was had to make it stay on the spoon but hes not used to eating off a spoon and his tongue just pushes it out so we arent going to go crazy with it but maybe a few nights a week we will try it and see how things progress, at least he will be getting good practice and when he's ready we will know!
Im really excited because Im making his baby food and growing the veggies and he will be the perfect age by the time we harvest it all! And he will be the perfect age for the pool this summer, I already bought him swim trunks....orange (of course my fav. color) and brown.

So onto a little about Ean and I,
I have ran maybe a handful of times since I posted about running, its allot harder to find time then I thought and the weather isnt so great either, I do have the jogging stroller put together so we are ready for you sun...come on out so we can RUN!!
Im not sure how to run with a stroller and a dog...there is no way I could leave Kev at home, so the stroller may only get used for short runs.
Ean just bought a tractor to bail our hay and scoop the drive n the winter, he got tons (literally) of rock for the driveway. And we are in the process of boxing up all the papers from the business we dont need and moving the office out of the dinning room.....ohhhh I can NOT wait :)
So as usual life is busy, but good busy!
