Mission: Fatten Baby Jack

So we took jack to the doctor for his 4 month check up....ugh of course we think he is getting soooo big and so tall....well not according to the charts. he has fallen into the low tenth percentile for weight, when he was born he was int he 80 th....so he is slightly falling of the charts. he weighed in at 12lbs 14oz.....apparently not good enough. so we are on a mission....we have to prove that baby jack can get fat and put on weight or at 6 months they will begin testing him for issues related to poor weight gain....well thats not going to happen, if i have anything to do with it. we are now all on a schedule that revolves around jack....jack eats baby cereal 3 times a day and LOOOOVES it. he just cant get enough, he should have no issues with baby food. as well as little mix of nursing and bottles containing 24 calorie breastmilk(thats just super duper fatty breastmilk with a kick)well its going well, he is a trooper we are constantly stuffing that baby and he always looks so full and happy....hopefully it will pay off!

so on top of that we have made our 4th trip to the ER with our children. Cope fell on monday, he tripped on a truck that was near the wall and hit his head on the window. He busted it right open between the eyes....there was blood everywhere! i never seen such a thing, and he was crying...he didnt know why all the "paint" was coming out of his body! jeff took him to the ER, he never cried, never complained, got the 3 stitches....some stickers and they were on their way home. we go on monday to have them removed, hopefully that goes well...
(while we are there, i will get the nurse to throw...i mean place jack on the scale to see what progress we have made in 2 weeks, so think heavy thoughts for us)

and lastly we went strawberry picking with Eli's class, it was so much fun. i took jack and cope, i was a chaperon for the class....it was a really good time! got to ride a tractor, feed goats, picked berries!


this video does not even capture half of the laughing...but if you listen you can hear jack laughing at the boys, they are jumping on their beds, he thought it was hilarious and he will laugh so hard, i have never heard a baby laugh that hard before, i love it. so we tried to video it, but he is distracted by the camera-of course!this is a video of our growler. he growls at people all the time. he mainly does it to try and get attention, when he wants you to look at him. but people will walk by us at places and he will growl at them. and its funny because the turn and look....the baby just growl at me? oh yes he did, he growled and squealed at you and it worked because he got your attention! HA and as some of you may recall.....we have already had one growling baby (coplin) but jack is putting him to shame, he really gets into it! so this video is alright, its hard because he stopes doing stuff around the camera.
