4 month stats

We went to the doctor for Pearce's 4 month well-check.  Everything checked out great!  Pearce spits up a LOT, so that was my main concern.  I wanted to make sure he was gaining weight fine and ask if there was anything we could or should do for the spitting up.  But, since Pearce isn't in pain when he spits up, the pediatrician said there's nothing you can do but do more laundry...ha!  We have tried thicker formula and it didn't do anything, so we'll just do more laundry and wait for him to outgrow it.  He has gained weight just fine, too!  Here are his stats:
Weight:  15 lbs, 3.5 oz (45th percentile)
Height:  25 3/4 inches (78th percentile!)
Head circumference:  42 cm (60th percentile)

Pearce had to get his 2nd set of shots, too.  It wasn't as bad as last time, thank goodness!  Chris held his little hands and he did cry pretty hard when they gave him his shots, but then daddy handed him to me and I gave him a bottle and he was totally fine!  When we got home, he took a 3 hour nap!  We had a great check up and hopefully won't be back until his 6 month check up!
