Giorgio is 4 months old, born on December 17th. He's ENORMOUS -- weighing 18lbs 4oz last week, and already 66cms tall.
He is a terrible terrible napper, seems to manage on 1 nap and 1 cat nap a day, unless I lie down and sleep with him, when he'll extend to 2 hours. He doesn't get anywhere near sleeping through the night, but we've started adding rice to his cereal twice a day, and this has cut down his night waking from every 60-90 minutes, to only 2-3 times per night. A BIG improvement!
He's an absolutely lovely spirited fellow, extremely smiley, very determined, very brave. His favourite thing is to stand up - I can barely make him sit in my lap anymore. He stands up for 10 or more minutes at a time! He has a little walker on wheels, and loves pushing himself around in circles. He hasn't rolled over yet, but can turn onto his side very effectively.
He loves to suck his fists, is dribbling so bad his chin is all spotty... DH and I are very much looking forward to his first tooth!
I don't have any friends with babies this age, so it's great to have you all to compare with!
*big hug*
