Daniel and other updates

I took Daniel in for his 4 month check up. Here are his stats:
Weight - 18 lbs. 10 oz. (96%)
Height - 27" long (also 96%)
Head circumference - 43 cm (75%)

He got 5 immunizations today, poor boy. He is healthy and happy and doing well. He is babbling all the time, laughing, smiling, blowing bubbles, raising his head (like the sphinx), eating well, sleeping well, grabbing toys and playing with them.. in other words, he is on target for every milestone. I love my boy!

In other areas...
We had a very nice Thanksgiving. I'm very glad we went up to Oak Harbor, WA to be with my brother John and his family. The kids did ok in the car and were well behaved while there. On Thursday Jacob lost my cell phone. We never did find it and it still hasn't shown up.. so I got a new one yesterday with a new number. I was kind of bummed because I have had my 408-421.. number for so long! Now I have a local 503 number ::sigh:: I can feel California slowly slipping away. :o(

I made a goal to exercise 5 days a week this month (well, with the exception of Christmas). So far I have! I know, I know.. it's only the 3rd, but I'm still happy about it. :o) It feel nice to be sore from exercising, my dormant muscles are thanking me. I noticed that every time I laughed my abs slightly hurt and because of that I was conscious of how often I laughed.. I was pleasantly surprised to notice I laugh often during my days. Jacob can be such a ham!

Yeah for Daniel! He's such a buhda I love it. I want to hold that little guy. I so miss you. I am so glad you are doing well. Yeah for laughter. I'm so proud of you for meeting your exercise goals. I know I always feel better when I workout.

Keep up the good work! You need to post some now picts and some later picts for those of us who don't get to see you very often. I wish I was motivated enough to do that. Daniel is getting so big! It feels like yesterday that he was born....time flies! We should meet at Clackamas Mall sometime and let the kids play. See ya,
