Ian's First Cereal

Well, after Ian decided to grab my spoon and shove mint chocolate chip ice cream in his mouth (AAAAAHHHHH!) and the OK from the doctor, we let Ian have some rice cereal. He liked it and gobbled it down!

Four Months Old!

For his 4 month birthday, Ian got to go to the doctor.

He weighed 18 lbs 4 oz and was 25 inches long.

He got 3 shots and one oral vaccine.

He is allowed to start solid foods!

What else?? hmmm...

he is rolling both ways!

New Look

Does anyone even read this anymore? If you do, you should comment. Otherwise I am going to give up on it. If there are readers, I will try to post more often.

Ian Rolled over, front to back, last Thursday. He did it once for me. Then on Saturday, he did it twice for roger and I both!

He is grabbing and playing with toys all the time now.

We bought him a bumbo seat!

8 pounds 14 oz (yes, OUCH!)
20 1/2 inches long

31 hours of labor start to finish, and many, many serious complications for ME...

40 weeks 1 day...

Hmmmmf.

We had our 40 weeks 1 Day appointment today, didn't really get great news...

There is absolutely no change from last week, except I lost 1 pound and my blood pressure was better.

The doctor said, "I'm pretty sure you won't be seeing us again next week..." and then proceeded to make an appointment for April 18th, and scheduled a Biophysical Profile and Non-Stress Test for the same day. He said that there was no medical reason for an induction, yet, and I have not progressed far enough on my own for an elective induction.

So we're still baking.

Hope everyone is having a nice day! I wish it was at least sunny out so we could go for a walk....
