Oliver Grant :: Four and Five Months Old



Weight/Length
Baby boy had a check up this month. He now weighs 14 pounds and is 24 inches long! He had a major growth spurt.

Sleep
He is no longer sleeping through the night... We had a good run, but now we're up every two hours. He takes good naps throughout the day, so we're not exhausted.

Eating
This boy is hungry! He is a solid nurser and is not a happy camper if he has to wait. He nurses every two hours round the clock. We were given the OK to start cereal but I've decided against it.

Diapers
Still in 2's and Pamper's Swaddlers. They seem to be working the best for us right now. I'll probably move him to 3's next month.

Clothing
He's in 3 month clothing almost completely now. Some 3-6 fit but I'm not quite ready to get all of them out.

Mood
He's still a bit fussy and seems to have tummy issues sometimes. He spits up like a champ and is so quiet when he does it! He's super cuddly wants to look at you at all times. 

LOVES
talking
smiling 
giggling
grasping at toys
cuddling

DOESN'T LOVE
tummy time
being scared

What I Want To Remember
The way he gets so excited to take his shirt off
How hard he laughs in the bath
The sweet smell of his breath
How hard he pulls my hair
All the grunts





Weight/Length
He didn't seem to get a whole lot bigger this month. I think he's probably around 15 pounds and maybe 24.5 inches.

Sleep
He is still waking every two hours on average. Some nights we'll get a four hour stretch, but it rare. Luckily, he nurses and then goes back to sleep. But, he's a good napper! He'll sleep for about two hours, two or three times a day.

Eating
He is nursing about every three hours, for twenty minutes at a time! He seems satisfied so I'm holding off on the solids a bit longer. 

Diapers
I moved him to size 3 in Luv's. They seems to be working just fine!

Clothing
Ol' Thunder Thighs has moved to 6 month clothing! And a few of those are already too small! He still has a few 3-6 month that fit but he kind of skipped that size all together. 

Mood
What a sweet boy! He loves to smile and coo. Overall he's really happy, calm, and sweet.

LOVES
being naked
diaper changes
playing with toys
putting everything in his mouth
bath time with Finley
cuddling

DOESN'T LOVE
being alone for too long
teething
tummy time
