Mmmmmm, rice cereal

I had my 4 month checkup last week and she said I am a beautiful and healthy textbook baby.  Mom thinks I am growing into a string bean like my dad.  I measured 25" (85%) and weighed 13 lbs and 9 oz (50%).

While we were at the doctor, she gave mommy the OK to feed me some new food, so on Saturday evening I got to try some rice cereal with mommy and daddy.  I loved it.  I cried when daddy didn't get the spoon back in my mouth fast enough.  I have no idea what was taking him so long in between "bites" but I wanted him to move a little faster. So in between bites I started sucking my thumb so I wouldn't cry.  I was a little messy but I didn't really care because after cereal I got to take a bath and I really love bath time.  My favorite part of bath time is when mom or dad pulls the plug and the water starts to drain out. This is when I like to kick my legs and wave my arms around a lot.  Sometimes I even make myself giggle.

On Sunday morning, mommy fed me more cereal while I was still in my PJs.  I still really liked it but mostly, I like the spoon.  I took it away from mommy and chewed on it for a while.  It didn't take my dog long to figure out where to hang out during all this fun.  Now when mom puts me in my highchair, Sally-Wally comes over and sits right next to me hoping I'll drop the spoon or mom will accidentally knock the bowl of cereal off the highchair tray.  She's a pretty smart dog.  I love her.
