Well Baby!

Reese had his four month well baby check up on Monday. Everything checked out perfectly. The doctor said he has great, healthy sounding lungs and heart. He was so imipressed with how responsive and alert Reese is and how strong his head and neck are. Reese only weighs 12lbs 11ozs, which is the 15th percentile, but he's on the curve, so we're not concerned. Hey...at that weight at least he's still easy to lug around! Dr. Cawley said he would probably start gaining more weight since he's getting formula now. He also suggested giving him rice cereal once a day. So, we'll try that this weekend. He's 23 1/2 inches long, so he looks very long and lean, definitely not something he got from Mommy!! I made the comment about Reese being a drool machine and when Dr. Cawley felt his gums he said they were starting to feel a little tough so he may pop a tooth through in the next month or so. I'm not sure I'm ready for that!! The doc also said we could start trying to let Reese go from bedtime till morning without getting him to eat, so we may try that this weekend. Basically everything is right on track and he's reaching all his milestones right on time! We are so blessed!



What 'chu lookin' at?!
