Four Month Check up

Bishop had his four month check up today! He did great!! He weighs 15lb 1 oz and is 24 1/2 inches long. He has developed a cold from his first 2 weeks at daycare, but there was no fluid in his lungs or ears....it's just a cold and you would never know he's not feeling well, because he's his happy, smiley self!!!

We have been working on having Bishop look to his left more, as he always looks to his right when he's sleeping and it's created a little flat spot on the back of his head. His Dr today said it's not "helmet" worthy, so that was a relief. We will continue to work on having him turn his head and we'll try to keep him off his back as much as possible...tummy time, here we come (not Bishop's favorite thing to do)! :)

He did get two shots--he didn't flinch for the first one (you wouldn't have even thought they pinched him), but the second one stung a bit more (the nurse said it would). He cried a bit and that was it. We all went to lunch afterwards and Bishop fell asleep. He was pretty drowsy after his shots at his 2 month checkup, so I wasn't surprised.

All in all, he is doing great!! I am so proud of him and I love him to pieces!! He has been sleeping like a champ! He's slept through the night more and his average is to eat at 8pm, go to bed after that and sleep until 3 (if not 6am), eat and then go back down for a few more hours.

I dread leaving him for two weeks, it will be one of the hardest things I've had to do, but we'll get through it and it will make me REALLY appreciate the time I do spend with him!

We are spending our weekend packing up the house--no more 5712 as of next week!!! It's been a great house for us for 6 years! I can't believe we've been here for 6 years, but we are incredibly excited about our new house and neighborhood!
