Maddox {4 Months} {An Update}

Let's pretend this happened a long time ago. He was 4 months on 10/6 but I just didn't get this published. In a few days, I'll publish his 5 month post. ha! 




Maddox is FOUR MONTHS OLD!!!
Well, four and a half months old, now. :)



Weight:
 At Maddox's 4 month well check, he weighed 17 pounds and 6 ounces (80%)



Height:
25 inches (40%)


Head Size: 17 inches (85%)



Nicknames:
Maddox-Man, Brother, Bugga Bugs, Baby Ma-Miks (by Mason), Bruh Bruh, Bug, Love-Buggy, Love Bug, Brother Brother, Little Love Bug, Little Big Guy



Can you tell we like nicknames in our family?



Eating:
Maddox is eating 4 bottles a day between 7:00a.m. and 7:00p.m. He eats at 7:00a.m, 11:00a.m., 3:00p.m., and 7:00p.m. He eats between 7 ounces and 8 ounces ate each bottle and he takes them like a champ. He does spit up a little bit now and then but not too much. We use the LATCH bottles still and he does well with those.



Sleeping: 
Sleeping like a champ! He sleeps 7:20p.m. to 7:00a.m. each day. He naps for 2 long naps each day (2ish hours) and then a little evening cat nap.


Diapers: 
I think I mentioned this last month but cloth diapers aren't in the picture anymore. We all full disposable and thanks to Aldi, we have found some good ones that are inexpensive. Maddox wears size 4. He could probably fit in size 3 but these give some room and that way I don't have to worry about him outgrowing them quickly when I have a bazillion left in a box. :)




Clothes: 
This is a wide range right now. He can fit in a few 3 month clothes but they were snug so I packed them all away for good. He could also fit in some 3-6 months but that size was kind of awkward, too. I put them away as well. Now, he is wearing 6 months and 6-9 month items comfortably.



Social: 
 Maddox is smiling and laughing all of the time. The laughs are belly laughs and it is so darn cute!
He is smiling more for strangers now, too.
Maddox is becoming more aware of others while we are out in public and looking around in every direction.
 He's got the cutest doggone pout lip, too.



New/fun things from this month: 
Maddox rolled over from back to belly on 9/12/16 and he is now a complete stomach sleeper.
Jumping in his jumper all the time and loving it!
Tons of hair grown in his month and it's still reddish.

Dislikes:
6:00p.m. to 7:00p.m. :)


 
Momma:
I'm still pumping several times a day. 75% of the milk he gets is milk I pump and I'm glad for that. I've been wearing him in the Ergo more and he loves it. 



Daddy: 
Many Daddy and boys afternoons this month while I worked some. They love their time together.



Mason: 
Mason says "Hi!" and makes Maddox laugh so hard and he will do it over and over again.
