Griffin is Four Months Old!

Our little man is four months old today!  This past month, we've experienced several fun new things, and worked on perfecting some of the things he's already attempted.  He's full of personality and growing like a weed, and I can't wait to see how he measures up at his four month check up on Tuesday!  He's doing great at sitting up, as long as he's got something to lean against.  He's also still reaching and grabbing everything in sight, and puts everything straight in his mouth.  He just recently found out how much fun his feet can be, and I think he'd try to eat his toes if he could!
When he gets excited, he loves to squeal...and thinks it's funny when mommy squeals back!  It's all fun and games until it happens in the middle of church one morning!  I have to hand it to the little man, he's been great about keeping quiet when he's supposed to, and we're keeping our fingers crossed that it continues :)  We've been working on rolling over some more, and finally caught one on video!
 Griffin is "talking" up a storm, and we've been working on saying "mama"!  He's getting close, and although I know he doesn't quite associate the word with me yet, it still makes me smile when I hear a little bit of it every once in a while.  We're also working on making noises, and he's doing a great job repeating what he hears.  His favorite new noise is a motorboat....  he's such a boy!
One big milestone we've reached this month is his first taste of rice cereal!  We started to notice that he wasn't getting full on just milk alone, so we decided to give it a try.  It's a little messy, but he loves it...and he's doing great eating from a spoon.  I'm sure more yummy foods will come soon!
 
There have been so many fun "firsts" already this year, and we're looking forward to taking him Trick or Treating in a few days for his first Halloween!  We've got his costume and treat bag ready to go, and will post pictures of all the fun...see if you can guess "whooooo" he'll be!
