Childhood Milestones

I decided to look online to find out how Ian's developing compared to other kids his age.  He is close to being right on track according to the development chart.   He is currently 4 months and can do everything but hold his head steady.  He is doing better everyday with that though, I see his great improvement from last week til today.  I found this timeline on WebMd that I will share with you now:
