Well, it's official. My son is 4 months old. With this four month check up came more shots, a brief from the Doc on how to feed him solids (YAY!!!), and of course, the dreaded growth chart. Now Randy and I are not what you would call...Tall, under any circumstances. However, we seemed to be holding out some type of hope for our little roo thinking "MAYBE He will be the big guy" Why we thought this i have no idea. We were being told by random women almost every time we left the house that "OMG HE's SO TINY!!!". Yes lady, I know.
Anyway. Randy had to take Bruin for his checkup and the nurse measured him at a crazy 25 in. which would have placed him in the 70 %. WHAT?!?! Of course the doctor came in and dashed all excitment when she decided to remeasure because the number seemed wrong...(NO WAY!)
That 70% quickly plummeted to 35.1 when he was actually only 24 in. Oh well. That was short lived. As for the rest of the charts our little man is, well, little. In weight (13.56lbs) he's in the 11.98%. I PROMISE WE FEED HIM!!!! As for head circumference (16.5in.) he's at 56.7 %, yay his brain's gettin big!!!
At the end of the day I decided to make Bruin his first solid. Homemade baby sweet potato...YUM! Below are some fun pics of Bruin and our first try at real food!
