Tall & Skinny

So yesterday we went to Dawson's 4 month appointment. Come to find out we have a tall skinny boy on our hands. We kept thinking and saying how long he was, and it was true..:) He is 26 1/2 inches long and is in the 85 percentile with height. His weight on the other hand was 14 lb 1 oz.. which is in the 31 percentile and a head in the 24th percentile. It reminds me of my dad who is tall and skinny and my mom's dad who is very tall and super skinny as well..
He had to get shots again, but he did so good for them. I think the nurse that gave him his shots this time was so much nicer and better than the last. He hardly cried! We watched how she gave them to him and she was so nice about it. The last nurse just shoved the needle in hard and his face went red red and he screamed. I hate nurses that work in pediatrics and are so mean and seem so heartless. :( Also last time Dawson threw up after getting the ROTA virus immunization (it's given orally) The nurse said it was probably just a fever or something. This time when he got the booster for it, he threw up immediately right after. The nurse this time felt so bad and held him and helped clean him up, let him calm down before she gave him shots, and then wrote down not to give him the immunization for that because he can't keep it down.
Anyways, he did really well and is growing so fast. He rolled over from back to tummy for the first time last night and he did it twice! Then J.D. got home from work and he was just rolling back and forth like crazy! haha! We are so blessed to have him! Even through sleepless nights it's crazy how we forget and just love them more and more.

Brain Clutter

Does anyone feel like they have brain clutter at the beginning of the new year?? I always have plans, and try to schedule things out for the year. We have to plan ahead or else things could get worse... anywho, I feel like I've been rushing around, make list after list of all the needs to get done. Yet, somehow things don't ever get done which really irritates me and makes me tense. It seems like when I get everything on my list done, there's another huge one to be made and get finished.... I'm just kind of venting because I'm feeling overwhelmed with all that needs to get done this semester even though I'm not going to school right now, we have plenty to get done for J.D. and dental school applying processes. I can't imagine how J.D.'s feeling... one way or another we will get through and make it all happen. It's kind of like planning your wedding. You stress up until the moment of saying I do and then it all just works out.
Updates on Dawson.. well the little man is just growing like no other! He can roll over from tummy to back, but not back to tummy yet... but it will happen soon, he's really close. He must be going through a growth spert because he is suckin me dry... lol! He is getting smarter each day. We love playing with him and showing him new toys that light up. He is able to grab things.. but once he gets it, he pulls it right into his mouth. He is scooting on his tummy slowly. He definitely doesn't end up in the same place we lay him down at. :) I just re-decorated his room so it fits with the log furniture. I will take pics when its done and post them. I just have the changing table left to do.
Hopefully it all comes together sooner than later!
