OK, for those of you who’ve been asking for a family photo... here we are! This picture was taken on the 4th of July (can you tell?).

Aaron had his well-baby check-up at the pediatrician’s office in Lakeport this morning. The pediatrician said Aaron looks really good; so good, in fact, that she said that she doesn’t need to see him again until he’s one year old (another 4.5 months)! She said Aaron seems like a normal 4-month-old baby in every way (his chronological age is going on 8 months, and his corrected age is going on 4 months). He weighs 10 pounds, 7 ounces. The pediatrician saw no signs of CP (cerebral palsy) nor “stiff muscle tone.” Thank you.

So, we’re just cruising along. Aaron’s eating a little bit of solid food, he sucks on his hands, he smiles and giggles, he gets cranky sometimes, and he rolls onto his sides (but not completely over yet). He continues to sleep through the night every night, which is very nice.

We hope you all had a good weekend.

Love, Kevin, Kathleen & Aaron
