4 Month Check-Up

Friday was Ben's 4 month check-up. He is now 25in long and weights 16lbs 12oz. That puts him in the 50% for height and 90% for weight. The doctor said he is right on track developmentally and physically. She wants us to start rice cereal and the move on to oatmeal in a few weeks. And then once we go for our 6 month check-up we can start veggies & fruit. I can't believe we are already to the introducing food part of his first year. He had to get 2 shots in his leg and one oral. He was such a trooper-cried after the second shot but as soon as I picked him up he stopped crying. We gave him some tylenol so we could be ahead of the pain so we didn't have to relive the pain he was in from his 2 month shots.  But luckily these rounds of shots didn't seem to really bother him!
