Our Little Peanut!

Alex had is 4 month check-up today. He was perfectly healthy. The doctor was very impressed with his ability to sit up (supported) and with his tummy time. She also was able to get a lot of belly laughs out of him (until shot time). Here are his stats:

Head: 15.75 / 7%
Height: 25.25" / 46%
Weight: 13.8 lbs / 11%

He's a tiny one! At William's 4 month check-up he was 25.75" and 14 lbs 13 oz.

The pediatrician did say that Alex should be sleeping 7-8 hours in a stretch at night which he is definitely NOT doing. He actually was sleeping this much up until about a month ago when he started getting up twice at night. She said he was old enough for "tough love" so tonight we will be letting him cry himself out. We had to do the same thing for Will - it only took 3 nights and he was sleep trained. Hopefully it goes just as well with Alex!
