16lb 12oz

Today, I visited with Dr Cox for my four-month check up. No surprise that I am a rather large baby. I weighed in at 16lb 12oz and I am 25 inches tall. I am very healthy, according to my doctor. As you recall, I have never been on the scale without peeing everywhere. I did not pee on my nurse today though!

Dr Cox told me a funny (but rather sickening) story about one of his toddler patients who will eat nothing but Cheetos and Pepsi. If his fat pig parents try to feed him anything else, he will scream and get the Cheetos out of the cupboard to dump on the table.

Dr Cox encouraged me to be exclusively breastfed for as long as possible. Babies don't even develop digestive enzymes until 9 months old. My first food will be green veggies of some sort. My mom eats a lot of peas from Whole Foods so maybe I will try fresh organic peas first.
