4 month check up

We have had a busy couple days! Caleb had his 4 month check up Friday afternoon, it went really well. He weighs 15 lbs 14 oz and he is 25 1/4 inches long. That is in the 70th percentile for weight and 50th percentile for height. I expected him to be bigger, since he's always been in the 90th percentiles for both. I guess he is starting to level off or something..maybe he won't be so huge like we thought!! He is exactly where he's supposed to be developmentally and his doctor thinks he is doing great. He got 4 shots again and those were not fun. He was pretty fussy that night and has developed a cold, too, which is keeping him (and me!) from sleeping well. Hopefully that clears up soon. His doctor said we can start solids whenever Caleb is ready, but no rush...we'll probably start with some rice cereal soon.


Saturday we visited a friend of mine and her two kids, that was fun for both of us! Caleb and my friend's son, Reuben, are the same age, in fact they were due on the same day but Reuben came a few days early and Caleb came a few days late. Then we visited Grandma and Grandpa's...my Uncle Kenny and Aunt Kathy were visiting there as well, and my Aunt Deb stopped by too! Caleb really was interested in Ollie, he was watching any movement he would make. He does this to Kitty at home, too.

On Sunday we went to watch Auntie Laura play volleyball, Caleb was so interested in all the activity. It was nice to see family. My mom's surgery has been bumped up to February 6th so that is great, she won't have to wait too much longer. We also rescheduled Caleb's baptism so my mom will be more recovered (it was going to be in February). We pushed it back to June 10th so that Angela, Caleb's godmother, will be home from France and can make it. I'm so glad we were able to work that out for the best for everyone!
