On a Brighter Note...

Eli had his 4-month checkup Monday, and he is doing great. He laughs and babbles all the time, can roll over onto his stomach, lift his head up for about15 seconds while on his stomach, grab one foot at a time, recognize family members and smile when we come into view, and he sleeps for about 10 hours at night.

Eli now weighs 13 lbs 6.2 oz. Length is 26" and head circumference is 41.75cm.

Here we are with our pediatrician, Dr. Pradeep Reddy. He is so kind, personable, and makes sure all my questions are answered. He has a 7 year old daughter and a 5 month old son (born a month before Eli).
