Hi all, wanted to update the blog and tell you our news for this week.
Calan was at the pediatricians today for his 4 month check. He weighed in at 13,15, a gain of 3 pounds since his last physical (which is different from last week, but apparently the scales can vary). He is at 25 percentile on weight and height and a teeny 10 percentile for his little head! Being born early accounts for these measurements and the doctor is very happy with his progress, as are we!
We introduced Calan to his door bouncer today, he seemed to really enjoy it (see pictures and video). He was very adventuresome, twirling around and he looked right at home!
Kevin had a meet up of his Old Timey jam friends at Mitchel Park this evening, so Calan and I joined him and danced along to the music. We were very proud of daddy, it must take a lot of courage to get up and play, especially as he is still learning the Fiddle. Good Job Kev!
Tomorrow, Calan and I have "Parent Participation" class. We started this last week and met some lovely mamas and their babes. We even met 2 of them for coffee at the local cafe on Tuesday, which was a lot of fun. It's great to be meeting new people, especially as most of these babies will grow up together and attend the same schools. My friend and her son Atticus, will walk up to class with us, it's a 4 mile round trip, so it's great for the diet!
That's all for now folks, hope you are having a great week,
Check back soon for more "Adventures with the Ellis Clan!"

I can't believe how much Calan looks like Kevin! Mom groups are a life saver! I organize one here in the Phoenix area and have meet some of the most wonderful moms and babies.
