4 Month Doctor Appointment

Lennon had his 4 month doctor appointment yesterday, which went really well. He got another set of vaccines, which he's been reacting pretty well to. He's a little fussy, but that may also be combined with his teething symptoms. I'm praying that tooth breaks through soon because he's so restless lately--even at night.

Here are his measurements from his appointment:
Weight: 15 pounds, 6 ounces which puts him in the 47th percentile
Length 24.5 inches which is the 21st percentile (he's obviously really short)
Head Circumference: 17.25 inches which is in the 80th percentile (his brain is just so big!!)

The total body percentile (weight for length) is 76%. Not too bad--I was expecting it to be in the 90s because everyone says he's so big. But I think he looks chunkier because of his head size and the fact that he's so short. But still more growing to do...just not too fast!!!
