4 months going on 1 year....

Max had his 4 month check up today at the doctor. He weighs a whopping 15 lbs and 13 oz. and he is 24 1/2 inches long. He is in the 75th percentile for his weight and 50th for his height.

He did not do so well with his shots today....he cried so hard. It broke my heart. His poor little face was so red, and he did the crying thing where no sound comes out. AAAUUUGGG! I was almost crying. But he got over them quickly and he took a nice little nap on the way home and Daddy is feeding him right now.

We talked in length to the doctor about how he is not sleeping and he thinks that he might be having a little acid reflux. Which would explain his out of control drooling issue right now. He took a look and did not see any teeth and he does not have an ear infection...the two biggest clues that teeth are on the way. He suggested that I try a little bit of rice cereal at night before his last bottle and see if that helps...if in a week still the same Max has to try some baby Zantac....so we shall see.

All in all Max is in perfect health and is already trying to sit up...he looks like he is trying to do sit ups, and he is trying to stand as well! Crazy.....can't believe how fast he is growing! Well Daddy and I are going to eat some dinner and then the whole family is going to bed!
