The Four Of Us: 4 Month Check Up!

Okay on Tuesday Mr.T (hehe) had his 4 month check up. Obviously, it's a bit after his four month birthday but you know doctors and how they love to reschedule. We actually had the appt. set up to be two days after he turned four months but they called and rescheduled due to the doctor going to vacation. Anyways, Tristan is doing GREAT! He weighed 17 lbs. and 1 oz. (77th percentile) and was 27 inches tall (94th percentile)! They said he's grown about two inches a month and gained just over two pounds a month. They were impressed with his excellent rolling skills. If you let him he'll roll all over the house! He's also been showing a lot of interest in crawling. Obviously he still doesn't quite get the "on all fours" concept but he tries really hard! He can actually wiggle around a lot and is pretty good at going backwards! It's really cute but you have to watch him like a hawk or you might loose him! The doctor expects Tristan to get his first tooth in about a month or so. Obviously you can't say for sure when they will come in but you can see the whites coming through so they're bound to be here soon! I wonder which will come first - crawling or first tooth? I guess we'll just have to wait and see!

One of Tristan's other latest interest is The Backyardigains. He absolutely LOVES to watch them. It amazes me that a four month old will sit and watch a TV show for thirty minuets straight. And if you turn it off or pick him up mid show he will scream until he gets to watch it again! They actually are pretty cute and the songs are quite catchy. Lloyd wants him to be Pablo (the penguin on the show!) for Halloween but I'm not so sure about that. We will have to see about that as well!

Here's some cute ones of Mr.T watching his favorite show and getting around!
