Josiah is 4 months and 1 day old!
At my last immunization a week ago, these were my stats...
Weight - 7.4kg
Height - 67cm
Head circumference - 43.5cm
I am growing nice and big! Hehe... everyone says I'm very very long (which is a fantastic thing, seeing as I'm a boy!!) but the doctor says I'm average.
Whichever it is, Mummy and Daddy are just glad that I'm putting on weight instead of being stagnant like my sister!
Today I had my first taste of rice cereal. I seemed to enjoy it, but I only finished half of what Mummy made for me. Mummy and Daddy think it's cos the food is not coming in as fast as I'd like it, so I got edgy....
A couple more weeks till I stabilize on my solids and then Mummy will begin her arduous task of preparing vegetable purees for me! Carrots, apples, pears, broccoli, pumpkin... yum yum yum!
Will I dislike potatoes just like my sister? That is for Mummy to find out!! hehehe
Mummy has also been trying to switch me from my S size teat to an M size one, but I seem to dislike it... it's been almost a week already, and I still seem to have difficulty adjusting to it. The only reason Mummy switched them is cos I take far too long drinking my milk on the S size teat, as I can take as long as an hour to drink my milk! And since I still wake in the night to drink, this means mummy gets very very little sleep! Thus, Mummy's trying to force me into it...
My sleep pattern in the night has begun to stabilise, although in the day, I still tend to give problems every now and then. Because I'm always sleeping on my tummy, I tend to want to flip to my tummy even when I'm in the sarong"!!!!! Mummy and Grandma get so frustrated that they always exclaim "Who sleeps like that in the sarong!!!" Well, ME!!! =P
I'm getting terribly playful, and I really enjoy being talked to. I still love to stand.... even more than my sister did, so much so that I refuse to sit even when I'm tired!! This causes many to tell my Mummy to put me in the walker! But Mummy and Daddy refuse as they say I'm not ready yet since I still can't sit on my own.
I also pose quite a danger to myself as I tend to flip and kick myself off my rocker chair. When Mummy put me in the Bumbo chair, I kicked myself off it too! As such, my current positions these days are either on my tummy or being carried!
My favourite songs are Old MacDonald Had a Farm, and an action song sung by Ernie from Sesame Street.
I also appear to be a TV addict just like my sister! hehe.
Alright now.... time for my sister to update you before she turns 2 in a couple of days!!!
See you soon!
