I thought it would be cute to put Griffin under the tree for a picture. He was obviously not on board with that plan. I'll post more of this photo shoot later, but he never did cooperate. Good thing I think these are pretty cute anyway.Today we took him to the Doctor for his 4 month old check up. He is actually 4 months and 3 weeks(ish). Here are his latest stats:
Weight: 15 lbs 3 oz -- 40th %
Height: 25 3/4 inches -- 65th %
Head: 16 inches -- 7th%
So, he is growing well (much bigger than Lila and Sunny, and about the same size as Jackson was). Still a peanut head, but I think his big ears make it look a little bigger :)
I posted some of his newest accomplishments the other day but here they are again:
rolling
sitting
laughing and smiling lots
great sleeping and eating
pretty darn adorable all around!
It is looking like poor Griffin has a milk protein allergy/intolerance like Lila. Hopefully he will outgrow it sooner rather than later, although Lila's is still going strong now :( He also has a cold right now. If he doesn't get better after the weekend he'll have to take some antibiotics which I'm not thrilled about, but I bet he'll get better on his own first.
The doctor just wants to be careful of RSV. He told me several times to be very careful and keep him away from crowds, church, and kids (other than our own b/c we can't really help that). He said that 4 months to around a year is dangerous b/c babies can put stuff in their mouths and chew on their hands and can get germs more easily than a newborn. He also said people are more vigilant with newborns and not older babies.
So, as if I wasn't paranoid enough about sickness he has made me even more nervous. If I could put my kids in a bubble all winter I would, but since I can't --anyone with germs better stay far, far, away.
