Four Months Old ALREADY!!!??!!


That's right, Joseph is now four months old. He is truly the world's perfect baby; he's cool, calm, and collected . . . unless he's hungry. That's another matter entirely.

Today Chris and I took Joseph to the doctor for his well visit. He was given 4 immunizations, which I think hurt me much more than they hurt him -- he only cried for 5 seconds. Here are his 4 month stats:

Weight: 12 lbs 12 oz (11th percentile)
Lenght: 26.4 ins (93rd percentile)
Head circumference: 42 cm (44th percentile)

Can you believe that length?? He's tall and skinny, the clever boy! The doc says he's on track to be around 6'3", which is awesome. I'll have a power forward someday!

1. A healthy baby
2. A husband who holds the kids while they get shots
3. Going to lunch together after the appointment

You could have been describing my baby in that first paragraph. And he has the same stats ratio on his measurements. Long and skinny.
