4 months old and trip to Orlando

It has been an exciting couple of weeks around here. We got visits from Nonny, Grammie, and then went on a trip to Orlando. Just went to the doctor yesterday for 4 month shots. He did great, much better than Mommy. Grayson weighed in at 15 lbs and 13 ounces. He is 25.5 inches tall. He is in the 52nd percentile in both weight and height. The doctor said that he is very proportionate. :) We are now increasing the amount of oatmeal that he eats and instead of eating it only once a day, we moved up to a breakfast and a dinner. We will try some canned foods in another few weeks. He loves to eat, opens his mouth right up and has even started grabbing for the spoon. This trait is definitely like his mommy!

We just got back from a trip to Orlando where we saw my entire family. My sister, her husband Bill and our nephew James, my brother Andy and his girlfriend Chelsea, and of course Grammie and Gramps. We had a great time playing games, lounging by the pool, and just watching the boys play. We can't wait to do it again!
I have several new tricks. This is one of them. I can stand on my own for a few seconds at a time. This was a long one of about 15 seconds. I am also starting to suck on my bottom lip and blow bubbles.
Here are all the boys in the pool swimming.
The two little boys in matching outfits. :)
Still not quite sure about the pool. We are thinking it will be super fun for him as soon as he can be in the raft by himself and just swim around.

The boys had a whiffle ball home run derby. Grayson and I went out for a few minutes to cheer our Daddy on!
Some more matching outfits. Look how tall cousin James looks next to our little peanut.
Of course we are still chomping on our fingers at any chance we get. Doctor said she didn't see anything in his gums, but they looked a bit swollen. Only time will tell.
This shirt had an orange on it and said "Mommy's Main Squeeze."
Here we are back at home trying to get out of the brutal Florida heat by swimming in the kiddie pool.
