Growing, growing, growing

Well, Jacob had his round of four month shots, and was not pleased about the experience in the least bit. Heck, he started crying as soon as I got him in the proper place for the shots. Then he jumped each time the needle pinched his skin, and quickly moved into the silent, open mouthed, I am not breathing, red faced cry...twice. Sigh. It's so hard for both baby and mama...Sophia, on the other hand was sitting happily with David's iPod Touch watching "Eva" (Sophia's term for Wall-E), with no sound. He recovered quickly enough and spent the rest of the day a little grumpy and a lot sleepy.

At this appointment we found out that Jacob:
WEIGHS: 5.30 Kg (11 pounds 11 ounces) --3rd percentile, still
MEASURES: 61.5 Cm (about 25 inches) long --25th percentile --gone up!
and has a HEAD MEASUREMENT of 39.2 Cm --3rd percentile.

So as you can see, he is consistent in weight and head circumference. And has grown four inches in the last two months. He is a long skinny baby who is still easy to carry around.
