captured on video
Eli had his four month check up today with Dr. Pepek. He now weighs sixteen pounds, his head is seventeen inches, and he is twenty-seven inches long. Apparently that puts him in the 75% for weight and 100% for height. Again, I don’t think those percentages necessarily mean anything… two months ago he was 95% for both- so a lot can change in just a few weeks. He has recently become aware of his own voice and likes to scream and squeek, especially in the morning… no more peaceful mornings to sleep in at our house! Rolling over has become fairly routine, but I finally captured it on video:
I still can’t believe how quickly he has grown. He’s no longer the little blob that sleeps all day:
It seems like he is already past the “baby” stage and growing into little boy things. The extended awake time leaves more interaction time and he really enjoys his “johnny jump up” and “exo-saucer”.
This past weekend we also had a bbq at my sister’s house in San Diego and had a great time catching up with lots of family and cousins… our first gathering with all the babies. It got me really excited for future Christmases all together with a ton of kids around. They bring so much life to the party! Hope you are enjoying your summer so far… feel free to come visit any time!
