Our beautiful Callum, at 4 months you now:

Chuckle when I tickle your toes, your tummy, under your arms and it's so gorgeously exciting to hear

Laugh out loud

Cry with real tears

Love to weight bear on your legs and can stand supported

Lift your chest high when lying face down so I can see your belly button

Stuff your hands in your mouth after a meal making yourself sick

Move your head to the direction of sound, left or right, with only a mere hint of a bob

Have had a first taste of rice and were not very impressed, but love pureed carrots and guava

Love to hang onto mama's brown, curly, hair and tangle it in your hands
