I'm 4 months!

I guess 4 months is that magical age that you try everything out. As of today Z has finally had enough! What follows is our whirlwind 4 days of being 4 months!

He turned 4 months on Saturday while we were down in Beaver for the weekend. It was a learning experience for all! He hates staying up late, loves nature, and really does know how to throw a tantrum! I thought making him be outside in the sun the whole time would curb his hatred of it.. NOPE! He was only happy in the shade. But we were still able to have lots of fun: we went hiking, fishing, walking, and jeeping. Too bad he missed out on shooting (it happened after bedtime)!

On Monday Z got his 4 month shots and came through like a champ! The nurses called him the little trooper because he didn't cry. He only made his infamous sad face- bottom lip sticking waaaayyyy out! He also was told that he is ready for rice cereal so we tried it that night of course! Too bad we waited until he was starving! We gave up and gave him a bottle to calm him down which he downed in seconds! Then started spoon feeding him. He was good about eating it until he realized it was slow in coming and started howling for more food! We eventually gave up.

Today (Tuesday) we went to the city pool. He was all dressed in his swim diaper, swim trunks, t-shirt, and sunglasses ready to face the sun with a smile. That is until he realized he had to leave the shade to get to the water. He screamed and cried the entire time we were there. Luckily "the entire time" was pretty short (only about an hour) and most of it was spent in the stroller, in the shade. Go figure kid!

I wonder what other firsts I'll find for him this month!
