Henry Update:

henry just had his four month well baby visit.  he is still small for his age and the doctor can’t seem to get over it.  he finally got a prescription for some vitamins since i told the doctor that i am now giving henry one bottle of formula at night to get some iron and vitamin D in his system.

henry is less than third percentile for weight and fifth percentile for length.  i must just be destined to have small babies.

the doctor seemed concerned about henry’s “lack of communication.”  i think he is just a quiet and serious little boy.  henry does smile a lot now and even giggles from time to time.  he doesn’t smile as much as some other babies but each baby is different.  i guess we will just wait and see.  

henry has finally started to calm down a  bit.  some days he even goes with hardly crying at all.  he definitely still has fussy days though.  henry has even started to like his bath a bit, as long as it doesn’t last too long!  henry will play on his floor mat at times and even likes to sit in his aquarium bouncer from time to time.  he likes to sit up as much as possible and gets frustrated when i lay him down too much.  sometimes henry just wants to be left alone.  he must be getting over stimulated sometimes because he likes to just be put down and left alone.  during these times he will just chatter away to himself and his toys and pull at his toes.
