Perfect in Every Way

Charles had his four month 'well visit' with Dr. Jenny this morning. He is 17lbs 3oz, 2' 2.5" and he is, and I quote, "perfect in every way". He is in the 87th percentile for his weight and the 92nd percentile for height. He looks chubby but this is perfectly normal for a breast fed baby. Apparently my milk becomes less fatty and he can be expected to slim down during the second half of his first year
The best news is that he is doing everything on today's 'developmental checklist'. Babies only doing half of these things are still considered 'on track' developmentally so Charlie is, and I quote again, "a genius'.

Time for me to eat (Dennis made chicken enchiladas) so that I can keep feeding Charlie his genius juice.
