Long, overdue update: Austin is 4 months old!

Austin turned 4 months old on April 30th, while we were in Florida! When we arrived home we drove straight to his well child appointment and got a good report. The little guy is doing well. The only concern is that he appears to have eczema (like his brother Brody) on his chest although it is hard to tell where the eczema begins and where his incessant drooling rash stops. The craziest part about it was that he was able to scratch at it really successfully - something that is hard for a four month old to do!

Here are Austin's stats:

Height: 25 1/4" - 50%
Weight: 15.3lbs - 50%
Head: 42.5cm - 50%
*He's very proportionate ;)

And here are Brody's stats at four months:

Height: 26.5" - 97%
Weight: 17lbs 8oz - 97%
Head: 44.5cm - 90%

And Jacob's stats are:

Height: 25" - 36%
Weight: 14lbs 14oz - 38%

So Austin is right in the middle of his two brothers as far as growth at 4 months :)

It's nice that he is a little more sturdy now. The other day I had Austin on the floor mat and heard a strange noise and when I looked I found Brody sitting and bouncing on Austin like he was a horsey ride. I screamed and scared Brody who then fell completely on top of Austin. Thankfully Austin was laughing the entire time, but it scared the you-know-what out of me!

When we returned home from Florida the entire family got a mild cold. Austin just had an adorable little cough (that you couldn't help but go "Awwww" when he did it), but I was very relieved he never had a fever or any other complications.
