Rigley is 4 Months

Happy 4 Months Rigley!

This little guy is 4 months old today.  Actually, "little" may not be the right word to use.  He goes to the doctor later this week for his 4 month check up so I'm not sure his exact weight.  We weighed him today on our scale and he weighed in about 18 pounds.  Yep, he's on the same growth scale as all of our others.

This month he learned to roll over back to front.  He loves to show off and now likes to roll away to get out of getting his diaper changed.  He seems to think rolling is not good enough.  We often catch him trying to pull his knees under him.  He's not quite strong enough yet, but it won't be long until he's really moving around.

He loves his hands.  When he starts to get sleepy he is starting to put his thumb and first finder in his mouth.  I'm not sure if we will finally get a thumb sucker or not.

His newest and favorite toy is his mirror.  This little guy loves to check himself out.  He thinks he is handsome and funny.  (I know his onesie is a little out of season but I was hoping the message would sink in by osmosis.)  The onesie may have worked, last night he was only up at 3....yeah for sleep!

Hair is still growing in and coming in blondish, like the others. 

At the beginning of the month he was starting to have nights where he would wake up once usually around 3:30 and eat then be ok until 8.  I'm not sure what happened but that suddenly changed and we were on a newborn timetable again.  Yowza! It's hard to get mad at this little guy when he wakes up and sees me and just grins from ear to ear.  He's a little devil!

He is still very happy and loves his big siblings.  He likes to roll and scoot to watch what they are doing.  This past week the kids made up a song for him.  They changed the Scooby-Doo song to Riggy-Roo and sing this to him now, its actually really cute.
