3 Month Check-up

Moses will be 3 months old on Sunday, so today we took him to see Dr. Irwin for his 3-month check-up. Moses let his good nature shine through during the visit, smiling happily at Dr. Irwin while he was being examined. His big brothers, on the other hand, started fighting with each other and Joe had to escort Joshua off the premises half-way through the check-up. I mentioned to the doctor that Moses is so much more easy-going than the twins were, even at this early age. Dr. Irwin said that's often the case with younger siblings, and he's likely to maintain his good nature as he grows older. Thank God for that, because I don't know what I'd do with three wild boys!

While Moses is no longer the off-the-charts jumbo baby he was when he was born, he is still pretty darn big. He is still above the 95th percentile for weight at 16 and a half pounds. He is right at the 95th percentile for length at 25.5 inches, and is in the 90-95th percentile for head circumference at 17 inches. Brains, brawn, and a great personality to boot... who could ask for more? ;)
