4 Months Old

We have had a very busy week so far. Yesterday Bennett was watched by Christina & Chris. From what I heard it went well. (Hopefully since he's back with them on Thursday). I wonder what Bennett & Gabriel think of each other...? 4 Months Old Today! I had the day off of work since I had to take him in for his 4 month check-up. What a big boy. He weighed in at 16 lbs 6 oz!!! I was guessing somewhere in the 15 lb. range so was quite surprised to see just how big he really is. Weight he came in at the 90% tile and length of 25 1/2 inches which puts him at the 75% tile. At his two month check he weighed 13.9 so he defiantly is growing. He is very healthy but does have a mild cause of eczema which stinks so we have to start using Eucerin Cream. But other than that he had a good report. Oh, and he also needed shots today too which he didn't like but they went much much better than his two-month shots. From here we ran over to Target to get him the cream and some rice cereal cause we can now start him on that at any time. He was very crabby tonight (probably cause of the shots) so we didn't get a chance to test this out tonight though. Then from Target we went to Mayer for the grade school Play Day to watch Kristen do a few events. Made me realize that in 5-6 years I'll be there watching Bennett. I have mixed emotions about this but we won't get in to that now. Then from Mayer we came home for just about and hour and then went w/ my mom to Mankato to pick up Laura from school for the night. The main reason that I went with was so that Bennett could get a good nap in the car since he was having problems taking a nap when we got home from Mayer even though I knew he was very very tired. So anyways long day so hopefully he/we get some good sleep tonight and that he is a good boy for Shirley tomorrow.
