Four Month Old Super Baby

Just got back from Emmett's four month check and am happy to report that we have one healthy baby.  He weighed in at 18lbs 8oz (98th percentile) and is 27 1/2 inches long...which isn't even on the growth chart.  He's literally off the charts!  His big ol' dome measured 17 3/8inches which is in the 99th percentile.  Thankfully it is still round so it looks like we will only be two for three in helmets.  All of this means that it has been confirmed on paper that he is is huge!

Answers to the super important questions posted yesterday...we start rice cereal today.  Hooray for rice cereal!  Time for Brett to get the high chair down from storage.  While at the store for rice cereal I picked up an assortment of baby wash and lotions for E because the perma-rash is eczema.  No one in the family has had this so I am a novice in how to treat it.  We will be starting a skin care regime for him today, stay tuned.  His eyes are still blue.  ;)  And, last but not least, the white nip is a pimple.  So gross.  Ew, ew, ew.  The Doc said she can't tell us to pop it because it is against dermatologist recommendations but if I happen to go crazy with a loofah on it, it would go away.  Otherwise it could be there for months.  I think I'll leave this job to Brett.

He was all smiles and laughs the entire time and even demonstrated to the doctor how he loves to "jump" when you hold him up.  She was impressed as we are.  I know you all were on pins and needles in anticipation of this update.  Yeah, right.
