Austin has been a tank since he was born. He's chubby all over, especially his cheeks, arms, and legs. He's so squishy and we adore him. Today at the doctor, I was pleasantly surprised that his growth had slowed down. He weighed 17 1/2 pounds, which is closer to the 50%. Phew. He's average! His length was about 26 1/2 inches (but that's a tough measurement to be accurate). And his head is growing sufficiently:) He's just such a little Gerber baby. Strangers comment on his eyes and his Gerber look all the time. He was a happy boy, until the shots. He hates them, especially the oral vaccine. He loses it on that one. But I'm just thankful he's healthy and thriving. He usually goes to bed about 7pm, eats again at 10pm and then wakes at 3 or 4am to eat, and then wakes again around 7:30am. It's a good schedule. He's sitting up better on his own, he loves toys, and burying his face in blankets or clothes. He has been enjoying pears and squash baby food. He still doesn't like bottles, but the doctor suggested just trying a sippy cup instead. We'll try that. These aren't the best pics, as he was a little spastic and every picture was coming out blurry. haha.
Check out those rolls...
