Emmett: 4 Months old

I now get the saying "Growing the weeds". 
It's because they grow so quickly and because usually you say it on something that you don't want to grow. 
Emmett is a weed.

He is now 4 months old! 
I cannot even believe it! 
He is still such an amazing baby, I don't know how we got such a mellow kid!
 Like, today at his Dr. Appt. The Dr was checking him out and he was just giggling and laughing at her. 
So cute. 
Then the shots came, the nurse laid him on the table and he is just smiling at her so big. 
She gives him the shots and he cried for maybe 3 seconds and then smiled again at her!! 

Honestly, what baby does that? 

His stats for this Dr appt were awesome: 
Weight: 15 lbs 3.5 oz (75%) 
Length: 26 inches (90%)
Head: 43.1 cm (75%)

He is one tall baby boy! The Dr. even said he is the length of a 6 month old! 
She cleared us for rice cereal so we might start that tonight!

Emmett now can:
- sleep the whole night in his crib
- grab toys better
- hold his head up and turn his melon side to side
- rocking tummy time and can lift himself pretty well even though he hates it
- laugh!
- grab his feet like a monkey
- talk and babble CONSTANTLY
- sit up in the bumbo or propped up against something
