greyson is now on the growth charts!

At 4 months old Greyson is 12lbs 12oz (20%) he is 23 1/2 inches long (10%) and in the 40% for head circumference! He has a big noggin. At 2 months he wasn't even on the charts at all so this is huge! I've been thinking that he has gotten really big lately and it turns out that I'm right. He got two shots this time and took it stride. I was really proud of him!

The doctor also said we can start cutting back his Zantac and start letting him taste food. His explanation of adding foods was great. He said, "Right now his world is all white. White walls, white carpet, white couch. Adding foods is just adding some color." He went on to explain that ther is no rush and Greyson will still be getting all of his nutrition through my milk, so we can jusy play with food, even letting him lick whatever we are eating. I'm excited about this. I don't want to really start him on cereal yet, but I like the idea of letting him lick things just to see what things taste like.
