Bo had his 4 month appt. today and we got the green light for rice cereal & pureed fruits/veggies! Our pediatrician Dr. O’Conner said he looks great, he is exactly like Eli on the growth chart too. Bo is 95% percentile for height and 10-20% percentile for weight. My record keeping book I have for Eli & Bo is like identical! Speaking of identical growth curves these boys look JUST alike if you ask me at this stage of development and age. Here is a picture of Eli and the one below it is of Bo from earlier this week. It's like the same face!
Bo now weighs 13 pounds and is 26.5 inches long. He gained 2 lbs from his 2 month appt. and grew another 2.5 inches in length. I knew he was getting quite long but I didn't realize that long! He is at the line of out growing the infant carrier which sucks! I have an infant carrier my sister used with her kids and the new one's go for much longer lengths but I didn't want to buy a new design just because of that. Eli out grew the carrier when he was 5 months and we pushed it a few weeks past that before putting him in a convertible car seat, but Bo is clearly not making it that long. What is funny is that since Bo & Eli are skinny you really don't think by just looking at them in the carrier that they have out grown it just yet....well until you look at the end and you see their toes creeping over!One thing is for sure -we know these boys don’t get their height from their momma!
So on the Eli front - this kid seriously CRACKS us up. Every day it's a new thing that comes out of his mouth. Well now it's "Um...Hi" or "HI" when he wants your attention or needs to interject into you conversation. Really where the hell does he get this stuff from! lol
Here is Eli having a meltdown with these crazy air traffic controller ear muffs Adam has in the basement. This picture cracked me up, like 1 second before I took it Eli was all smiles and looking so funny and then it turned into this. Ahh...gotta love those terrible two's!
Ok this is much better, Eli in the tubby the other night - he is 23 months here only 1 month away from his Thomas the Train 2nd Birthday party!
