Four Months Old!

We took Maddox for his four month check up last week and were amazed to see how much our little boy has grown! His stats were 17 lbs. 14 oz., 26 1/4 inches long, and 46 cm circumference head. Regardless of his acid reflux, he is in the 95th percentile for everything. Here are a few new random pics of our little bobble head! He is growing so quickly and just rolled over from his tummy to his back last night. Jeff was so excited because he was the one who was trying to help Maddox learn this and got to witness it first. This first pic is of him sucking his thumb for the first time! Jeff went in to check on him and we saw Maddox had found his thumb! Usually he just sucks on his fingers, fist, or whatever he can fit into his mouth...and then he drools everywhere! Here he is just before we all went on a walk one Sunday evening. It was beautiful outside!
Jeff thought we should all let you know that Maddox does, in fact, have a neck underneath all those rolls! Isn't that the cutest little gummy smile ever!?!?
Maddox helping me cook dinner while he sucks on his new folf frisbee. Jeff got a bunch of folf, or frolf discs for his birthday. Jeff insists it is frolf and I have always heard folf...any expert frisbee golfers out there that can settle this dispute? Anyway, thanks Dad for the little ones. Even though they weren't meant for Maddox, he sure loves them! They are the perfect rubber toy for him to chew on and gum.
More of Maddox's sleep habits. Here he looks like he is doing the hula or something. Also, here is how Maddox sleeps. His mattress has a pillow under it to help with acid reflux so we have to prop pillows on either side of him so he doesn't slide over to the crib edge and hit his head on the bars. We actually just got him a sleep positioner because having the pillows there worried me. I came in once and the pillow was over his head and he was playing with the fabric.
