Finn's 4 Month Appointment!
Posted: 03-21-07 17:16pm

finn had his 4 month appointment today and
it was great.
he weighs 18 lbs 7 oz (!!!) and is 27
inches long (!!!). he's a giant boy! 90th
% for weight, 95th for height.
i expressed some concern that finn doesn't
roll over yet but the doctor didn't care
since he can sit up on his own and he's
passed most of the developmental
milestones for a 6 month old.
i'm so proud of my boy!
then he got his shots and it was so
heartbreaking. he was laying on the table
smiling at us and i was dancing a toy in
front of him and i thought he wasn't even
going to notice the shots because he
didn't react when they stuck them in, once
the medicine hit (i'm assuming) his face
turned bright red and his eyes were
squinched shut and he was screaming. it
was *so* sad. the nurse had saved the oral
vaccine for last, which i thought was
stupid at the time, but when she gave it
to him he calmed right down and that was
the end of the crying.
now he's sleeping and i think he's pretty
uncomfortable, he keeps waking up
whimpering. poooooor finn.

Wow I guess .Finn is a big
boy!!
Kaylee is a month & a half older &
she only weighs 15lbs 4 oz & is 24
inches long lol. I think she's gonna be
petite though!
But yay for .Finn, that's awesome! & I
hate shots 
..
I can't stay in the room when .Kaylee gets
hers, I just can't bare to see her in that
much pain so I make .Shane go with us on
those days..
She goes for her 6 month shots in about 3
weeks

what a good boy! yeah sitting up is
wayyyyy more complicated then rolling
over...he sure is a big boy. I went to the
hospital 2 weeks ago and she weighed him
in at 17lbs at 3.5 months.I have a feeling
he will be just as big as finn.

i have to be in the room so i can scoop
him up as soon as they're done. there were
2 nurses today, 1 for each leg, and one
was done *way* before the other one and i
was so antsy and thinking "hurry up! hurry
up! hurry up!", i just wanted to pick him
up so bad!
6 month shots? oh maaan, i thought there
weren't any more until 18 months (i don't
know where i got that idea).

i thought for sure he was going to be at
least 20 pounds, i was actually surprised
when i saw the numbers. christian doesn't
look all that chubby to me but maybe it's
because i've never seen his legs, finn has
*huge* legs. we've got a couple of
linebackers on our hands.

Wow, what a big boy! And yay for sitting
up! Adriana could roll from front to back
at his age, but she never did roll from
back to front until she started crawling
And now she won't sit still.

some of yall i thought your babies were
older then they are but they are close to
jordynne i guess, jordynne just turned 3
mths yesterday, next month is her 4mth
checkup and shots, she didnt do to bad
with those they even had to redo the heel
prick , she didnt cry half as much as
joseph did when he had all that done . it
seems like they constantly get shots, the
oral one is the rotavirus one. i think
joseph had some at 12 mths when he got
here and then again at 18 mths . then i
dont think he goes back until hes 2 i
beleive. so eventually u get a bigger
break then when they are under age 2 hehe.
