Check Up and Check In

Last Monday was Jack's four month check-up. He weighed in at 14 lbs. 12 oz. and was 24 inches long (tall). Although with his hair give him at least another inch! The doctor says he looks great. He's right around the 50th percentile for both weight and length...which I found a bit surprising. He seems so long. The four shots were definitely his least favorite part of the visit, but he seemed to take it in stride.

The following day Grandmommy Garrett checked in to the guest room to spend a few days with us...who am I kidding? She came to hang out with Jack! Since she was on Spring Break, she spent part of her week with us. It was a great time. Jack spent lots of time cuddling and napping with his Grandmommy. The weather was pretty great. On Wednesday, we went over to Helen to tour Grandmommy around. She had never been to the tiny Alpine village. We enjoyed walking around and spent the majority of our time in the candy shops! Yummy! I also helped her figure out her new video camera and filmed some scenes of Jack in action. She was pleased to have some action to take home with her. It was a great visit and we were so glad to have her. It won't be long before school is out, so I'm sure she'll be back soon!

Jack is continuing to enjoy rice cereal. He has really taken to the whole eating with a spoon. He even opens his mouth for the next bite and grunts or whines when you are not fast enough with the next bite or when it runs out. So, maybe he won't be in the 50th percentile much longer! :)
