Anton's Updates :: 17 Weeks


 New Favorites: Screeching. Anton has decided he loves to make himself heard . He practices making his voice as loud as it can go all day long with happy screeching. Sometimes if he gets really upset he uses his screeches to show frustration, but mostly its just a happy sound. Anton is an absolute crack up lately. He is so much fun to play with and interact with now. I love to see his little personality starting to emerge. 
Eating:He had is 4 month well baby doctor visit and he had a great report. He is now in the 75 percentile for weight and height. The doctor told us we could start him on solids whenever he shows signs of being ready. We have a lot of adjusting to do with daycare just around the corner so I think we might hold off for a bit.
Sleeping: We had a rough patch of night sleeping for a while there but it seems as if were back to his regular 2 wake ups schedule. He is such a champ at going to bed early which will come in handy when we go back to work in a couple of weeks. He is still napping 3 times consistently during the day.
Milestones: He is really good at holding toys with one or two hands. It has been really cool to see him gain control of his fingers and hands.
Mom and Dad: I'm going to toot my own horn for a bit and celebrate the fact that I have returned to my pre-pregnancy weight. I was just curious so I stepped on the scale, and sure enough, four months of rocking, lifting, bouncing, feeding,  and working hard as a mama has caused me to shed some serious pounds.
