Well, that time has come yet again. Vaccine time! We saw the doctor this morning. Little Jimmy was in a stellar mood, which was totally awesome. He was smiling and laughing at the doctor and the physician's assistant. It made me feel really good. He has a little cradle cap, but that's it. Otherwise he's the picture of perfect health! He's progressing exactly where she should be and he even showed off his tummy time skills. The doctor was quite impressed with his strength. Now that he's 4 months old (4 months! Where did the time go!?) we can start solids if we so choose. There's no reason to and no reason not to. So, as long as he's happy we're going to wait it out. Maybe after Christmas we'll start...
The shots themselves went well, too. Hardly any crying - he was a little upset but then Big Jimmy held him and he seemed to calm down. And now the moment you're all waiting for - the 4 month stats!
Head = 16 inches (50th percentile)
weight = 14.1 pounds (50th percentile)
height = 26.5 inches (90th percentile)
He definitely takes after his dad - long and lean!

I am sure that he is built like Jimmy but, he looks exactly like you did when you were little. Oh my God, I am sounding like an Old Great Aunt. What the hell is the matter with me? Did the doctor give you the schedule on how he wants you to introduce the foods, ie rice cereal first, etc? Being that he is taking so much after Jimmy, I am going with rice in a bag.
