Hard to believe that the Little Man is 5 months old today! Time sure does fly! Peyton had his four month check up at the end of August (just a little late). He had a great check up and met all of the milestones that they were looking for. He can hold his head up really well, he rolls over both ways, follows toys, and interacts with people. He is such a happy boy. Here are a couple of "stats":
- 17lbs (85th percentile) 26 1/4 inches tall (over 95th percentile)
- Peyton has been sleeping through the night (at least one 8 hour stretch a night) since about 5 weeks. However, he decided that since I was going back to work, that he should challenge me. For about two weeks he was getting up a couple of times a night and would sometimes stay up for an hour an a half! YUCK! Thankfully, he has been sleeping a little better the last couple of nights.
- Peyton is a DROOL machine. I mean the boy has to have a bib on him during all waking hours and the bibs usually last about 30 minutes before they are drenched and have to be changed. We thought he was teething but there are no toofers just yet! Addy got her first tooth the day she turned 5 months so I am thinking Peyton won't be too far behind.
- We have started giving Peyton some rice cereal and he LOVES it. He get so excited when you put him in his chair and he sees the bowl!
- Addy is by far Peyton's favorite person. He lights up when he sees her or she talks to him. I hope they continue to love each other and make each other happy.
- Peyton loves toys. Rattles, toys, his exersaucer, or his bouncer...loves them all.
- Sweaty feet...that's about all I can say about that...the boy has crazy sweaty feet.
- Peyton started daycare a couple of weeks ago and has adjusted so well. He goes to a wonderful home daycare that is just across the street from my school. Like so close that I ran there one day at lunch to give him tylenol and was back in less than 10 minutes! Laila (sitter) is a dream come true...she loves my boy like a grandmother and takes great care of him!
That's about it. Here are a few pictures from recently.
