My 4 month old

Jackson is actually about 4 1/2 months old now, but today was his 4 month appointment. He's growing so much! We had to get up super early this morning to get ready and go, his appointment was at 8:45. Most days, we're just having breakfast at that time! We made it to the doctor's office with plenty of time. Brady wanted to spend the time looking at the fish. They have an awesome salt water fish tank with most of the fish from the movie Finding Nemo. He loves to point Nemo out to me. Jackson got weighed and measured. He's almost 14 1/2 lbs and 24 in long! I can't believe how big he is! He's still on the small side, below the 50th %ile on both, but he was such a small newborn. He's growing on the same curves which is good. He also got immunizations today and took them like a champ! He cried for a little while, but it didn't take long before he was smiling at me again. What a happy guy! His cough and congestion are still hanging around, they said that if he still has it in a week to call and they'd get him started on some antibiotics. When we took him in last week, they saw a little fluid behind one ear, but not an ear infection yet.

My tough little guy, all tuckered out

I can't believe he is getting so big! Your ped's office sounds like ours. We'll have to chat & see if we go to the same place. :) Hopefully next week we get some warm weather & then we can start going on our walks!
