Graham's 4 Month Check Up

As usual and no different from any other family with children, the Costello household has been very busy lately. We've got a lot going on. Keith started a new job a few months back. I started a new job yesterday but have had lots of training and evening events going on prior to that. And Graham and Liam are growing like weeds.
Graham was 4 months on September 29th. Lots to update but here is a quick summary.

At his 4 month check up, he recieved 4 vaccinations (poor little guy). He was in the 30% for weight and 52% for height. I find this very humerous because everyone keeps telling me what a butter ball he is. I think its because of those awesome cheeks!
 At four months he is starting to hold his head up a lot better and putting weight on his legs more often. Which has resulting in us testing out the bouncy seat the the Bumbo. He still is not too sure about the Bumbo but seems to enjoy the bouncy seat. I give him another 2 weeks and he will be all over this stuff.
 He also tried cereal for the first time on Sunday! Despite his face, he loved it. Really only took him a couple bites to get the hang of it and then I couldn't get the stuff in his mouth fast enough. He was crying for more until every last drop was gone!
 We have had some sleeping issues the past few nights. But I can't complain too much since he has been sleeping through the night since about 10 weeks old. Hopefully he is just having some growing pains and teeth aren't coming in yet. We still have him in the rock n play sleeper in our room so this weekend we are probably going to have to transistion to crib!

He is doing so much better with tummy time as seen below. However that doesn't last long. He has figured out how to roll from stomach to back. On his back he can almost roll to his stomach but usually gets stuck and starts crying!
 He, as his always has been, is such a happy baby! He loves to smile and talk and coo. So much fun!
 And I actually got him giggling for the first time the other day. Greatest sound in the world. Ignore the weird sounds I am making, anything for a laugh!
I am sure I have lots more to update on everyone but that is my quick post for now!
