Happy St. Patrick's Day!

A Walk in the Park

Today was a gorgeous day so we took Mason for a walk. While we were out, we stopped by the park and Mason got his first ride on the swing. Even though he's obviously too small for the baby swings, he seemed to enjoy sitting in it and watching the other kids. He even got a few small pushes from Daddy and loved it!

The walk took a lot out of him

Four Months

It's hard to believe that Mason is four months old already! It seems like he does something new everyday. He's getting better and better at rolling over. He is fascinated by his feet and has started making a lovely high pitched squeal when he's happy. He giggles more than ever too! Mason's four month doctor visit was this past week. He's growing appropriately and the doctor said that he's stronger than most four month old babies. He told us to start him on solid foods. Since he's been getting rice cereal in his bottles for months we were able to start with something else. He's been eating oatmeal for the past couple of days and is doing well with it! He even seemed to have an easier time with his shots this month.

He now weighs 15 pounds 14 ounces, is 26 1/4 inches long, and has a head circumference of 16 1/2 inches.
