Doc says to solid

We're back from Jackson's check up and Doc says that if he's eating in excess of 40 oz. of formula a day and still wants more, that is our cue to start up some solids. Doc recommends rice cereal as baby's first solid.

So, there will be some rice cereal consumed this afternoon. I have a box of Earth's Best Organic Whole Grain Brown Rice Cereal in the cupboard, and we will see how that goes over.

Film at 11. :)

Jack's Stats as of today, 4 months and 1 day old:
Height: 27 inches
Weight: 17 lbs., 6 oz.
Head Circumference: GINORMOUS. (I don't remember, but I have to pre-stretch out the neck hole on all his shirts and onesies to fit over his enormous melon.)

Just to jog your memory, Jack's Stats from birth:
Height: 19 inches
Weight: 6 lbs., 11 oz.
Head Circumference: Huge, like a bobblehead.

He is now in the 90th percentile for all of his stats. At birth, he was in the 50th percentile. He was in the 75th percentile at his 2 month checkup. HE'S HUGE NOW! I told you he was my little Moose!
