Growing boy....indeed

Wow! Josh is sure growing. He had his 4 month well baby visit today. He weighes in at 14 lb 9 oz and is 25 inches long with a head circumfrence of 42 cm. He is in the 50% for height and weight and is doing very well. The heart murmor was also barely audible today, so it might just be going on away on its own. He met all of the goals he should be meeting, laughing and turning toward voices, he is also doing push ups while on his tummy, holding his head steady, and grabbing at objects. He's getting to the fun age Mike would say - and I would have to agree, this is much more enjoyable than the fussy and crying phase 2 months ago. We may also be starting cereal soon as yesterday Josh polished off 9 oz in one sitting, another 6 1/2 oz later, and pretty much ate like a piggy all day.

In other news, Mike was apparently jealous of my surgery and felt he needed some attention medically. He got to go to the ER last night to get his finger stitched after a minor accident with his router. His finger is fine, it only needed one stitch and his nail got a piece of it out. It might mean that demolation on the deck is a little later done but not too big of a deal.
