4 Months / Potty Update

Wow!  4 months old already!!  We went for Sean's 4 month checkup today and the doctor said he looks great and now weighs 15lb 12oz.  The doctor said that he's "socially advanced" for his age and Sean is already doing things that 6 month olds start to do - following objects from a distance, rolling, grabbing onto things, and he even had a bit of seperation anxiety when Dave left the room to take Alex potty.  The doctor measured Sean's head to check the flat spot and he said it's a lot more symmetrical so there wasn't much concern anymore but we should still keep an eye on it.  Yay!  The doctor said we have two very healthy boys and we should feel lucky - We feel extremely lucky!

Potty Update:  Alex has been doing great on the potty as of lately.  He hit a few stumbling blocks a few weeks ago where he was having 1-2 accidents per week and he was so constipated that he wasn't pooping on the potty because it hurt him so bad.  But this last week has been terrific - No accidents so far and he's now telling us when he has to go poop on the potty.  It's been nice not having to change his diaper during the day!  Way to go, Alex!   

Sweet brother love!
