I took Owen to the doctor yesterday and he weighed in at a whooping 18 lbs. 3.5 oz. He is a growing boy! This puts him and Addie Kate's weight at a less than ten pound difference. We knew he would catch up with her, but it seems it is going to be sooner rather than later.
The doctor told us we need to go ahead and get him a new carseat because he is over the height limits for the infant seat. Addie Kate stayed in her infant seat much, much longer than four months so we were not at all expecting to be getting a new carseat anytime soon.
Four months is such a sweet age and Owen is such a happy baby. He adores his big sister and lights up whenever she is around. They are really starting to interact with each other and it is the most precious thing to watch. He sleeps in his room now (I waited as long as I could, but he has about outgrown his little bed in our room) and has started rolling over. He is sleeping about ten hours at night which makes for very well rested mom and dad!
Next month Addie Kate turns two! It hardly seems possible that we have a full blown toddler. But, believe me we do! She is a hand full and keeps us on our toes. Thankfully, I think she have finally gotten over her dislike of the nursery! I cannot begin to tell you how much more enjoyable church is when I know she is not screaming in the nursery. I think the magic trick was 'bra bra' being in there with her! Who knew??
