4 months old and somewhat mobile. When I put him down, he is never in the same place when I go back to get him (in the pictures below, both times he started in the center of the blanket). He rolls both directions but even more interesting than that is he does this little scoot thing. He face plants into the ground and gets his legs moving so he is like wheel barreling across the ground. It's fun to see him move, but he needs to get his arms in on the action so he stops getting a rug burn on his chin from the face plant (I also just notice his wrists have a little rug burn too b/c they get trapped below his body as he is going).
Aside from the movement, his personality is developing more too. With that said, if he keeps going like he is, Kherington and him should balance each other out quite nicely. He is a very content baby. He normaly sleeps and eats well, but has recently started getting more erpy. He is a little more vocal (yeah, I still forget to feed him sometimes which he doens't like). He gets really bad gas when I eat bell peppers or broccoli which are probably my two favorite vegetables. I haven't yet figured out exactly what makes him smile. He doesn't seem to be ticklish but we'll see if he stays that way.
With Kherington I only made it to 4 month of pumping (in addition to formula) before completely weaning her. Kevin, on the other hand, hasn't had any formula which I feel is pretty good accomplishment on my end. We'll see how long it lasts. The doctor told me not to start him on rice cereal until he's 5 months old and as of yet he doesn't seem to need it so I'm fine with waiting...really, I'm hoping we can hold out until after our cruise so I don't have to deal with in on the cruise ship (we'll get back a day or two after he turns 5 months).
