"You can stop giving him fertilizer"

Oliver had his 4 month check up this morning. He impressed Dr. Alice by rolling all over the exam table, shredding the paper on the exam table, trying to shove the torn paper in his mouth, smiling, and chomping on her with his two teeth (that's right, a second tooth poked through this past weekend). Dr. Alice was also very impressed with how big he has gotten and joked that we should stop giving him fertilizer. Oliver weighed 16 pounds today and was 26 and 1/2 inches long -- he has grown 5 inches in the past 4 months and has gained 8 pounds!

Unfortunately Oliver's visit with Dr. Alice ended with several vaccinations which he was very upset about. The poor little guy is now taking a nap and hoping that his afternoon will be less painful than his morning.
