Old Home Day, Irene & 4 Months

A lot of FIRSTS going on in the G household. We took IV to his first Old Home Day, he survived his first Hurricane and had cereal today for the first time!

Old Home Day was somewhat of a success. IV seemed to enjoy all the people and the parade - EXCEPT for the Huge truck that laid on the horn for what felt like 30 minutes. I'm sure it was like 10 seconds, but when your little one is screaming because it's so loud - it feels like FOREVER.

Yesterday, we hunkered down and waited for Hurricane Irene to make landfall. A lot of wind and rain, but very tropical. It was actually HOT out. We never lost power, although I think Stew wanted to just so he could use the generator!

And today - IV had his 4 month check up today. He did amazing - again.

Weight: 15lbs 9 oz

All in all - A few shots, two snoopy bandaids again and we can start introducing foods!  I went to the store after his appointment and picked up some rice cereal. We just successfully had our first taste! He loved it. The minute he saw the spoon he opened his mouth.



Ok - my sleepy post-shots boy is napping, so I'm off to enjoy the sun.

My love
