4 month stats

I can't believe it! My baby boy is already 4 months old - man how time flies! Yesterday was our 4 month checkup - and Kaydin was not a happy camper from the moment we undressed him to get him weighed. Why are the doctor's offices so cold?? Well . . . our big boy now weighs 18.76lbs . . .we'll just say 19lbs and he's 271/2 inches long. They said he's definitely big for his age, he's off the charts for height and weight - but that he's still proportionate and we shouldn't worry. Some kids are bigger than others, and if you look at Michael and I we are not exactly the smallest people :)

We also got the go ahead to really work on getting him to eat rice cereal from a spoon. Once he gets comfortable with that, we can start introducing "the good stuff" - fruits and veggies. I say "the good stuff" because that rice cereal just seems so bland and boring. I can't blame him for not wanting to eat it! He is definitely getting better, he has his moments. This video is from last night, and I think he was really tired that's why he sounds so unhappy. I was trying to get some of the faces he was making - hilarious!



Along with the 4 month checkup came the 2nd round of shots. I'm proud to say I did not leave the room this time and I didn't cry! I also did not watch what they were doing to my poor screaming baby. He did great - slept an hour or so after the visit and woke up like nothing happened! Kids are so resilient.

Well it's a beautiful day so we are off to the park!!
