Mmm...Rice Cereal

Ben finally had his four month doctor's appointment last Friday. He now weighs 14 pounds 4 ounces (50th Percentile) and is 26 inches long (75th Percentile). He got five shots and had his blood drawn twice (the first one was spilled). He is still getting the red spots on his legs so they checked his platelets again. They came back normal! We think his blood flow might be getting constricted easily, but the doctor isn't worried about it at this point. We were also told Ben could start solids. We tried rice cereal on Saturday. I thought he did pretty good. He would open his mouth for each bite. Some he swallowed others he spit out. Surprisingly it wasn't too messy!

He's getting so old! No! Stop, Ben! You and Neil need to just stop all this growing up so fast right now. :)
