"Shorty Duwap" Update

Since Gavin's 4 month check up, he hasn't been acting like himself. We took him to the Doctor yesterday & our little monkey has officially doubled his birth weight. He weight in at 14 lbs 1/2 oz which puts him in the 23rd%tile. I can't believe it...he definitely is getting enough to eat! Turns out he has a cold/congestion/virus...all on top of his clogged tear duct in his right eye. I just hope he gets over it soon, we have a busy weekend & will be out of the house!

He has lately started to hold on to things. If you put something in front of him, he could see it & would touch it, but wouldn't grab it, or would hold on to it for 5 seconds then drop it. That has changed. His favorite thing is for me to put my hair in front of his face & tickle him with it, then he grabs & pulls! I love it! He will laugh & laugh so hard...he thinks it is the funniest thing.

Yesterday we had him in is jumperoo & he let rip the loudest "fluff" Mike said he had ever heard. We have put a pillow underneath the jumperoo for him to jump easier, so when Mike looked at the pillow, there was seedy, mustardy poop all over the pillow! Mike thought for sure he would have to change his blowout diaper, but when he picked him up there was no poop on his clothes or in the jumperoo seat. He all went out his diaper, by his leg, on the pillow. Thank goodness there was a pillow there or Mike might not have seen the poop! What a crazy kid!
