4 month check up

Ryland had his 4 month check up today. He had so much fun in the waiting room flirting with all the ladies. He weighed in at 17 pounds 9 ounces and 26 inches long. He is still in the 95% range, and is on target to be a professional basketball player.

The visit went well, and I was able to spend some time with the doctor to discuss a few things. The doctor wants to hold for 2 months before sending us to a specialist about the flat spot on Ryland's head. We are making progress, so we will continue to reposition until the next visit. This made my day! I am so glad we have a little more time. A huge relief for now because I was already dreading the helmet. Cross your fingers that it continues to improve.

Ryland also now gets to start eating solid food. He starts with rice cereal in apple juice and will add a new vegetable or fruit weekly. He is growing so incredibly fast. Before long he will be sitting at the table eating with a fork and knife.
