Science Center and 4 Months Old

Yesterday Ryan had the day off, so we decided to take Piper to the Orlando Science Center. Piper wasn't really interested in a lot of the exhibits, but we discovered later that it was because she (still) wasn't feeling well. She did enjoy the Kidstown section and the NatureWorks section. And then we headed to the Cinedome (an IMax-like theater) to see Wild Ocean. She really liked that and then it was time for lunch. Piper hadn't even had a bite or sip of anything yet, when she got sick. We cleaned her up and gave her some crackers and juice to sip, we thought she was going to be fine since it was out of her system, so we started to head up to the last floor of exhibits and she got sick again. So at that point we decided to just leave. We missed the exhibit that we were most looking forward to, but hopefully we can visit again another time. Piper seems to be feeling much better now and hasn't gotten sick (knock on wood) since then.

Yesterday was also Casey's 4 month birthday! He's holding his head up on his own consistently now. He's really starting to like his rice cereal and even gets a little mad when he finishes it all. He's still taking naps in his crib and they're progressively getting longer and longer! We're almost ready to give it a try overnight, we're just nervous cause he will be sharing Piper's room, and we don't want him to wake her. He loves his Bumbo and play gym and toys. All of his toys go straight into his mouth, which is of course, to be expected. He tries so hard to scoot forward when he's on his belly, he'll be crawling in no time. He still loves cuddling. He smiles all the time, it's so easy to get him smiling and they are infectious! He loves his big sister and is always craning his neck to see what she's doing. His "talking" is getting more frequent too. Tomorrow is his check up, so I will update again after that. We still don't feel like he's gaining enough weight, but he's definitely gotten longer. He's outgrown several outfits because he's too long. So we're hoping that maybe we're just not noticing weight gain because he's growing up, not out. But we'll see tomorrow!

4 Months Old!
Hey there!
Chewing on his links in his Bumbo
He LOVES this elephant
The ears, which make a crinkly noise are his favorite part
