4 Months

Yesterday we took Austin to his 4 month check up appt. Austin was in a great mood for the first part of the day, until we runied it. Sorry Kiddo :(

Some good parts of the visit...

*He weights 15lbs, which is average for his age.
*He is 25 inches long, tall like his Mommy.
*He can start to eat rice cereal, just a little though!
*We don't have to boil his water anymore, but I probably will.
* The doc is happy with his development (sitting up with support, reaching for things, laughing, standing with help)


Some not so good part to the visit...

*He has a flat part on the back of his head. She isn't worried because they want babies to sleep on their backs. It should work itself out when he starts to get mobile.
*He still has that bump on his forehead. She said the only way to tell what it is would be to biopsy it. She isn't ready to do that and will keep an eye on it. She is thinking it is just a cyst or blood vessels. I am nervous!!
*He got his second round of shots, 4 total. Poor little guy was upset and screaming. It almost made me sick to watch him in pain. He was a little miserable once we got home. We gave him some baby tylenol and just comforted him all day and night. No fever or anything serious this time. Last night was rough though.


I can't believe he is 4 months, he is really growing and has such a personality. I am truly blessed to have Austin and Jason in my life. My family is amazing, and hopefully we will be blessed with another in the future.

Looking forward to 5 Months!!
