4 Months Old!!!

Reece is 4 months old today and I completely forgot to take a picture of him! Oh well, I guess I'll have to wait until he's 4 months and one day.
Here's what Reece is doing at 4 months...

He's figured out that his hands can grab things and bring them towards his mouth and he gets quite a few things in there.
He's figured out that he can grab his bottle and bring it towards his mouth, although typically it ends up on his face or flipping out of his hands.
He loves his horsey jumperoo and we think that when he squeals in his jumperoo, he's trying to imitate the horsey noises it makes.
He can roll over, he's gone from his tummy to his back quite a few times and from his back to his tummy once. He hasn't figured out that this can get him anywhere... yet.
He still tries to go straight from a sitting position to standing.
He laughs at raspberries blown on his belly, on his legs and on his cheeks.
He laughs when you try to "eat" the same body parts as well as his arms.
He's ticklish on his legs, his ribs, under his arms and occasionally under his chin.
He also loves kissy noises on any body part.
He "talks" quite a bit, for some reason particularly when he's being changed. He's probably thanking us for getting him out of a dirty diaper!
He only has a small tuft of hair left on the nape of his neck.
We think he's learning the "more" sign when he eats. (We are going to try teaching him a few signs to help communicate.)
He typically sleeps from around 8:30 until 6:00, although his bedtime has recently been moving up a little bit. He also still sleeps better swaddled. (We love the Swaddle Me blanket!)
He loves seeing the "other" baby boy in the mirror.
And he loves bath time.

Our 4 month well baby visit is scheduled for next Friday along with his next set of immunizations. So, I'll be posting our new information next week.
