Seven and a half % baby!

This morning Taki and I took Nikos to his 4 month doctor's appointment. He weighed in at 11lbs, 15.2 oz and was 24 inches long. His height and weight put him around the seven and a half percent range (up from 5% - wahoo!) His head size clocked in around 20-25%, so I guess he is a little bit bobble-heady. He did really well at the appointment and took his shots like a champ, letting out a nice high-pitched scream at the end but calming down fairly quickly. Dr. Ray was happy with his progress, she explained that he was behind a little bit but that was too be expected since he was a preemie. She also gave us a list of the foods we can start trying with him when he shows an interest - so that should be fun!

I just looked up Taki's stats at 4 mos. You don't want to know haha. Nikos will catch up real fast. He's adorable!
