Hi all!
Well the past few weeks have been very eventful for us. Bryson had his four month appointment which went very well! He's growing as he should be and weighs a whopping 15 lbs now. He also had his shots, which he had a rough time with. He had a fever for several days which, as it turns out, was partially from the shots and partially from a viral infection he was fighting off. Poor little guy. I'm happy to say he's much better now and is feeling great!
The doctor said we were good to go to start Bryson on solid foods so I'm proud to say he's been eating his rice cereal like a champ. In another week or so we'll try some other foods too so that will be exciting.
Bryson is now reaching out and grabbing things and is able to hold his toys and shake his rattle. It's so neat to see him reaching out to grab something so he can study it closely....and then of course taste it. We found that we can no longer give him a hard rattle because he likes to hit himself in the head with it. He mostly plays with his little soft football rattle that he shakes and shakes...and he can knock himself in the head to his little heart's content.
Also, the big news this week is Bryson decided to roll over for us last night! He rolled from his tummy to his back with little effort and we were so proud we yelled and clapped.....which I think scared him half to death. Oops. It's so crazy how quickly he is learning and growing. Every week he does something else that amazes us and I know that he's going to be crawling before we know it. It's just such a neat thing to witness.
This is such an amazing time in our lives and I feel that if we blink, we are going to miss something! All these years I've been hearing how fast time flies and you never quite realize that until you're a parent. We have to savor every moment we have with Bryson because before we know it, he'll be 18 and off to college!
Unfortunately I have not had time to upload many pictures recently, however I did want to share pictures of Bryson in his new hat that his GiGi brought him. He looks so cute...Jeffrey and I swear he should be a baby model.
Enjoy these pics and I promise there will be more to come soon! (hopefully this week!)
