Better Late Than Never

I've been meaning to post the results from Elijah's 4-Month Well-Baby check-up for some time. Eli smiled, shrieked, and babbled his way through most of the appointment. Oh, and he also spat-up on Mark a few times in the process. Ha! As of Monday, January 25th, Eli weighed 13 pounds 2 ounces and measured 24 inches. He's definitely on the smaller size (pretty crazy since he was such a BIG baby), but our pediatrician said he's still moving up the growth curve, so she's not too worried about it. I must admit, I'm still a little uneasy about his smaller size (he had lost a little over a pound when we first had brought him home from the hospital), but constantly remind myself that God is ultimately in control of the situation. The appointment also brought with it the dreaded 4-month immunizations. Thankfully, the nurse was awesome yet again and it was over with very little crying involved. Overall, everything developmentally looked great and we won't have to go back to the pediatrician until his 6-month check-up. Wow, my baby is growing-up so fast!


Eli's battle wounds...




Finding your feet makes things much better!




No amount of shots can get this guy down!




Doctor visits are exhausting!
