Jaden: Watch Me Grow-4 months old!!

My little brother isn't so little anymore!  Mommy and daddy keep teasing me that he is gonna catch up to me in no time!  Jaden now weighs 13lbs 4oz at 4 months old.  This is still considered small according to the doctors but in mommy and daddy's eyes, it seems big!  I just reached 20lbs a couple months ago!  Mommy hates to jinx anything but she is very proud of how well Jaden is doing.  The first 3 months weren't easy but it seems like the right combination has been found to get him on a healthy track!  Now that he is feeling better, he laughs, giggles and is even happy sitting on his own just watching things around him!  He always wanted to be held before this last month. 
Jaden's personality is really beginning to show-he is much more laid back and easy going, just like his daddy!  Mommy says that Jaden is much more flexible than I am.  She said that I take after her and Jaden will take after daddy!
Jaden has been up to alot in the last month!  He has started to sleep through the night at times, he now uses his jumper, grabs for toys and has really taken a liking to cuddling blankets.  He has experienced his 1st Christmas, participated in his baptism and even started daycare.  He has also experienced his first sickness from starting daycare (and has yet to get rid off) and has met lots of new people that care alot about him!  He has also had his first evaluation and hopefully last, from a PT and OT who looked at his torticolis in his neck (boy that's a big word for me)!  They gave mommy lots of ideas of how to stretch his neck and let me tell you-he screams every time!  Slowly, he is gaining strength in his neck so hopefully he wont need ongoing therapy!  This is all great news! 
His favorite toys right now are his lantern, a musical monkey and his "blue".  I love to help mommy wipe his chin and put his pacifier back in his mouth but I don't think he appreciates me yet because I can be a little rough at times :-)  Mommy says that I'm such a good help though!
Well, I think that is the most recent updates for my little brother at 4 months!
