4 months

I am no good at keeping up on blog posts... so this 4 month post is going to have to be pulled out of my horrible memory!
At Macaulay's 4 month check up, he weighed 13.5 pounds and 26 inches long. He was hitting the 50th percentile. He was right on track with his development. He rolled over when he wanted to, never when we wanted him to! The doctor and his nurses always comment on how strong he is, since he was a day old, and even more so now.
He is very talkative and so happy. We tried to introduce solids. It did not go so well! He hated them! He would get the most sour face, and his body would actually shiver in disgust. It was pretty hilarious. I only tried oatmeal and advacadoes. I am not sure if he hated the texture, or the flavor, or maybe he just wasn't ready. So I didn't push it.

Whenever anyone holds Cauls, he just wants to constanly bounce or at the very least, stand. Sitting is not an option. He locks his knees and arches his back so he can stand. The only time that kids knees bend is when he is trying to bounce. It's pretty funny.  He loves his jumparoo toy that Aunt Jamie got him. He bounces so fast, and high, I swear he is going to jump right out of it. He was still too little for it. I had to put a blanket in the seat to support him, and a box under his feet so his feet could lift of and bounce. It was so hilarious to see this teeny baby bouncing like a mad man.
