Our 4 Month Appointment

It's already been 4 months! Except for Sydney's bout with jaundice and both of them developing acid reflux (the week Stacy went back to work), they have been really healthy babies. They continue to grow like weeds, and seem to outgrow outfits daily.

Tyler seems to be growing even faster than Sydney, which isn't surprising when you see him. He is now 16lbs 10oz, while Sydney is a mere 13lb. Even with his 3+ lbs over Sydney, his numbers aren't off the charts. He is generally in the 75-90th percentile for weight, height and head size. Sydney on the other hand is in the 50th percentile for weight and head size and the 50-75th percentile for height.

They also received their first vaccination at this last visit. The shot itself went very well. Both were troopers -- it wasn't until we were home that they decided to shed a few tears. We have decided to stagger the shots a little to lessen the number of shots and any reaction potential. I think it will make it easier for all parties involved.
