Four months

Ben had his four month checkup today, where he weighed in at 16 lb. 13 oz. That puts him in the 90th percentile for weight, while he remains in the 75th percentile for height and head size. The doctor said he may have to revise his height prediction of 5'8".

Over the past week, Ben has started reaching for things and bringing them to his mouth, sucking on just his thumb (instead of shoving the whole fist in his mouth), and trying to sit up when he's reclined on his back. He's also recently shown a fondness for the songs of The Carpenters. "Close to You" calmed him down on the way home from the doctor's today after he got his shots.
