Maddox is 4 months old!

Today Maddox is 4 months old. He had his check-up today and he's doing very well! He's 14 lbs. 2 1/2 oz. and is 25 3/4 inches long. He's in the 75th percentile for height and he's still a slight amount underweight for his height. She doesn't want us to give him any more than 5 oz. of formula at one time. he's been taking rice in his bottles since 2 weeks old for his acid reflux, it keeps the food down and doesn't come back up when it's thicker. So, instead of upping his bottles, which she believes will make him throw up, she wants us to begin introducing foods. Fruits and veggies for now. So, we're going to attempt some food on a spoon if he can do it. Just a few bites a day to try to make up for the formula he wont' be getting. Something to keep him full. He's doing very well. he's grabbing his feet, many facials, and is sleeping about 9-11 hours each night. He's just wonderful.
Carson has been just a joy these days too. I think it's terrible 3's. Although, he has gone for 2 full nights and 2 full days in "big boy underwear" so there are some congrats around here for him! Daddy took him to get a toy for doing so well. he's not even wearing pull ups at night at all. So he's officially going to help us save some diaper money. Whew. His vocabulary is something else. He likes to say "yesternight" and "sausage hamburgers"..........it's interesting trying to figure out his language. We have more fun with our kiddos. Both are wonderful and we're so blessed with our healthy baby boys!
