First meal!

So this week Zander got to try cereal for the first time! Wow did he make a funny face - I think he didn't know whether to spit it out or swallow it so instead he just kind of kept it in his mouth for awhile! Now a week later he is swallowing the cereal quite well and Kaitlyn even got a chance to feed him last night. Yesterday was also a big first for Kaitlyn as she had her first sleep-over at our house. She did very well not waking up when Zander cried in the middle of the night and finally getting up so she could help give Zander his breakfast bottle.

4 Months Old

So I guess it's been a little while since I've updated the blog as Aunt Vera informed me yesterday I need to keep at it! Yesterday Zander went for his 4 month check up and he now weighs 16 pounds 11 ounces! Which means in 3 weeks he gained 2 pounds! No wonder my arms constantly ache after carrying him around all day - I'm excited for nicer weather when I'll be able to take him out in the stroller more often.
We had a very nice easter last weekend. We spent one day with Chris family and one day with mine and then a day inbetween for just our new family. All in all we had a great time seeing everyone and Zander was introduced to his great aunt Kay and great uncle Al for the first time!
Not much else is new for us - Zander is now teething so he is practising at being quite the bear! I am told this process can sometimes last for months at a time - I pray in his case this is not so as I am already going nuts as quite often I am the only one he will calm down for and it makes for long, long days if he won't go to Chris. Oh a happier note Zander rolled over for the first time the other day! It was very exciting and once he was done he was out of energy and ready for a nap - he has quite the big bum to roll over!
This weekend is a busy one, Zanders Auntie Michelle and Uncle Jody are out for cousin Aidan's baptism and Zander is very excited to see them - giving Michelle lots of smiles yesterday!
