He's a Tank!

Ok, so it is official... Noah is a big baby. Today we took him for his 4 month Dr appt and he weighted 17lbs, 10oz (94%), measured 26 inches long (88%), and head measured in the 90%. Plus he got another 2 shots in the leg which topped it all off. He cried shortly and then fell asleep in the car on the way home and I took him up to his crib where he is still sleeping now. Poor kid. The bummer about him being such a big boy is that carrying him around in the car seat when I run errands is almost not an option anymore. But if I need to put him down, he is not old enough to sit up yet so I need ome kind of tranport. My killer 3 wheeled stroller just seems overkill for the Doctors office though. I can't wait till he is old enough for his umbrella stroller! Also I am having to start putting him into 9 month clothes as he is perfectly filling out 6 month ones... crazy!
As for the past weekend, we really enjoyed the time up at the Lake Collins condo by Mt Hood. Brent is very sore from snowboarding and again noted that maybe I am right about cross training to improve his skills on the slopes. We'll try to get back to some type of normal exercise routine for both of our sakes. When Noah is 6 months, we can use the 24hour fitness daycare which will help me be able to go.
Thanks to Marnie, I am now addicted to checking facebook daily but am glad I did join.
Well, that is it for now. I need to read my users manual for my new sewing machine courtesy of Tim (my dad) for Chritmas. I can't wait to make something. :)
Also... if you see words missing an "s" it's because our keyboard is sticking. Sorry.



  1. Good luck solving the stroller problems...Tom hates the fact that I want 5 different strollers for all the different scenarios we may encounter but it's true!!! Luckily, I've settled on two, one double jogger and one single umbrella style that can hold the car seat. I think I've had 4-5 other strollers before settling down with these! You could always try one of the umbrella styles that can recline and has shoulder harnesses to help him stay in...

    Enjoy your sewing, I can't wait to see what you make!

  1. Knew he'd be big!!! What a difference from Brent as a baby who just wouldn't grow. Of course, he just didn't keep any food down at all!!! He's obviously made up for it since.

    After seeing pics I was wondering how big Noah is, so thanks for posting his check up. It goes by fast, huh? Bear is the same way at 9 mon. he was 24 1/4 lbs. and the Dr. said he was slowing down --97% to 95%. I can tell you it will definitely get easier when he can sit. Just think of the arm strength you are building.
