Sumo Baby



We had our 4 month well check appointment with our pediatrician today. And as we expected, Nolan is one healthy boy! Weighing in at 17 lbs. 6.8 oz. Nolan is in the 90% for weight! He is 25 3/4 in. long, which puts him in the 75% for height. And once again, the "meatloaf", as a good friend of mine calls him, has a little head, 41.4 cm. (27 %) But no concern, his "chubbers cheekers" make his head look plenty big! So now we are ready for the next step...rice cereal! We take off tomorrow for 6 days in Chicago, so we'll probably start that adventure when we get back home next week. We are so blessed to have such a healthy baby, and we are especially thankful after he's slept for almost 12 hours, straight through the night now for about 2 months! At this moment Nolan is sleeping off the pain from his shots, while I'm busy packing for his first flight. We can't wait to be surrounded by friends and family this long weekend. Pray for no screaming on the flights and a happy baby as we cart him around non stop for days!
