4 weeks!

Dillan is 4 weeks old today! He's growing so fast. At his 2 week check-up he had already surpassed his birth weight and was 8lbs 15oz and grew 2 inches, bringing him to 22 1/4 inches! I'm sure that now he's well past 9 lbs and by the look of his ill-fitting footed pj's, he's a bit taller too!
He's also developing skills that all the charts say he should be able to do for several weeks. He holds his head up and steadies it for more than 30 sec. He can easily turn his head from side to side while holding it up. He pushes with his legs and likes to support his own body when you let him. And the kicker...yesterday he rolled from his back to his side to get into a more comfortable sleeping position. Mike also swears that he "crawled" up him, while laying flat, using the commando style of right arm, left leg, left arm, right leg. I can't wait for him to grow up a bit so he's more interactive, but at the same time I don't want him to grow up too fast.
Here's some pictures of the little guy.

First bath! He liked the water...didn't like getting out where it was cold!


8.19- After his 2 week checkup. He loves his giraffe!


Chilling in his mini swing in the Buddha position.


Play time on the island of fun! He grabbed the monkey and held on tight!


His island of fun mat.


Look mom...I can hold my head up all on my own!
