4 months

Theo weighs 15 lbs 3 oz (55th percentile) and he is 26 in (83rd percentile). He has grown exactly one inch each month – except for between month 1 and 2 he grew nearly 3 inches. His head circumference is perfectly in proportion with his body. Doc says he looks like he could be 6 or 7 months old! He had his second round of the oral “rotavirus” vaccine and he also had his second round of the “pentacel” (DTap, HIB, Polio) vaccine. He did very well. This time the doctor said to blow on his face when she was giving him the shot, so Jay did, and he didn’t even flinch! No cries at all. Such a big boy. He can really hold his head up and enjoys standing to show off his leg muscles. He smiles a lot and gives us a few giggles, too. He seems to be so happy and that makes us really happy. We don’t go back until he’s 6 months. Then we start to talk about introducing solid foods! Oh, how time is flying.
