4 Month Stats

July 2nd, 2009

Apparently I really do have a ridiculously large baby. At least now I know why people are so shocked when I tell them his age!

4 month well baby visit:
28″ long (off the charts) and 18 lbs. 1 oz. (95th percentile)

Fathers’ Day Weekend in Wisconsin was pretty nice. Dorrie particularly liked making grandpa go “faster and faster” in the boat!

She loves everything to do with the water. Apparently she got my genes that way…

The rain is doing all sorts of cool things to the flowering trees lately.

I made a panorama of one area in Isle of Skye. If anyone wants to look, you are welcome to click here (it won’t exactly fit in blog format). If you want to see the even bigger size, email or comment and I’ll send the link. I’m not putting original quality photos out on a public internet site.

Here are a few of my favorite pictures from our days in Isle of Skye, Scotland.


Jonas says, “Seriously? You’re seriously setting me on the fencepost of a sheep pasture for a photo op?”


We actually were going to go down that road. Changed our minds, though…

Whew, sorry about that. We went to Scotland, and what with the packing and preparation and such, posting was pretty far down on the priority list.

Dorrie stayed with my (awesome) mom and spent the week going to the park, doing crafts, and eating ice cream. Jonas went along. He continued to cement his status as World’s Perfect Baby, as he either slept or smiled at people on the 9 hours (each way) of airplane and adjusted immediately to the 7 hour time change.

I am obviously not yet good enough at this to do artsy babies-in-baskets type pics. Plus, he is too big for most containers.

It may not be artsy, but but is at least adorable.
