Atticus stats and The Fair!!

We just took Atticus in for his 4 month check up! Remember how at his 2 month check up I called him Atticus the giant? Well, that was small beans compared to his size at this check up.

He's 27.5 inches tall, which puts him in the 99th percentile for height. He's 16.4 lbs (80%) and his head is 17.5 inches around (95%). I always knew he'd have big brains :) I just didn't realize the rest of him would be so huge!!

As for his immunizations, apparently Idaho is running low on doses? I guess the advertisements are more effective than they planned (the ones about the dog having all his shots, but not the kids). Anyway, we're supposed to call back in a week to see if the doc has been able to get his hands on some. I can't pretend that I wasn't relieved to be able to put it off for a week.

Remember last week when we went to the fair? No? Well, that's because we were too busy having a BLAST for me to blog about it. We visited all the animals, but we only got pictures with the birds (once again, I forgot we had the camera...) Here is a picture of a ridiculous looking chicken.


I always love looking at the local arts and crafts, and there were some great cake decorators this year!




I know you're also wondering about the food. Well, let me tell you, I kicked my post-baby diet so hard out the window, it didn't find it's way back to me until Monday morning. As a couple, we ate a total of a foot long corn dog, a Philly cheesesteak sandwich, a pile of tortadoes the size of Trevor's head, two lemonade slushies (one was raspberry lemonade), and a chunk of chocolate dipped frozen cheesecake. And I mean a CHUNK. Oh, and we also brought home a bag of cotton candy, but I doubt it's going to get eaten... it just tastes weird away from the fair. I sadly did not get any cinnamon glazed almonds (mmm.... favorite.)
