The weather outside was finally far from frightful this weekend. So we got to play outside.
Everyone took a trip to the park on Saturday. I swung the swings.
 | I slid the slide. |
 | I pedaled my bike. |
 | And all Reece could do was watch. |
Then, we headed back home so I could spend some quality time with my new favorite toy: My "Choo-choo Track"
This photo was taken Easter morning. We're wearing the shirts our Grandma Kathy gave us. Thanks Grandma!
You may notice I look a little melancholy in the photo. That's because earlier in the week I went to the doctor for my four month well-baby check up. And, well, here are the results:
| Reece @ 4 months | Percentile | |
| Height | 24-1/4" | 27% |
| Weight | 13 lb 2.5 oz | 23% |
| Head Circumference | 16-3/8" | 27% |
| Colin @ 4 months | ||
| Height | 24-1/2" | 35% |
| Weight | 13 lb 2 oz | 20% |
| Head Circumference | 16-5/8" | 35% |
What is going on here?! I've slipped! I've got a little bit of weight on him, but that just has given him ammo for fat jokes.
This is not right. Anyone know where I can pick-up some HGH?
Over the past couple of weeks I've found more than my fair share of eggs. The weekend before last, my buddy Jack had his annual Easter egg hunt where I scored this sweet dump truck egg. It's always a real hoot watching all the kids race for the 400 plus eggs that Jack's mom and dad "hide." Someday I am going to have my parents take me early so Jack and I can scope out all the eggs before those other kids. Tee hee...
Then this past Saturday, my friend Juliet had a few of us over for more egg-tastic fun. I got lots stickers, tattoos and some little plastic farm animals.
As if that wasn't enough, the Easter Bunny stopped by Sunday morning while I was sleeping. Not only did he leave me more eggs with little stickers and toys inside, I also got a cool train set, cookware and books. Then we went up to Grandma & Grandpa Griffin's house for brunch, where there were even more eggs--this time filled with bouncy balls.
My mom is so happy to have all these plastic eggs with all my loot scattered around the house. I am waiting for her to trip on them.
Just you wait, Mom. Easter is just getting started with me and the Reecer man!!
This past week I went to get my annual allergy checkup. This time they did the RAST blood test as well as the skin test.
The RAST test came back with a 90-level allergy to peanuts. Basically anything above 15 means there's a 95%chance I'd have a reaction when exposed to peanut protiens. So 90 means there's a really, really, really....really, good chance I'd have a reaction to peanuts. The level doesn't necessarily predict severity, though, since I anaphylaxis the first time it's likely I'd have a pretty bad one again.
Long story short. Keep me away from peanuts and anything that's touched or possibly touched peanuts or peanut butter.
The skin test revealed I'm also mildly allergic to cats and possibly allergic to dogs. Luckily I've already learned to say "Go away Guinness!" whenever the dogs come near me. (I still love our cat Zoe though.)
Well, back to my peanut-free chocolate. See you later.
I don't have any big news to report. Colin and I have been on the antibiotics. He has a sinus infection and I have an ear infection. I'm pretty sure he gave whatever we have to me, so, once again Colin is causing trouble for both of us.
In other news, daycare is going well. I pretty much just hangout, eat, then sleep. And go though that cycle over and over until mommy comes and picks me up.
Last weekend we got a treat. Uncle Bryan was in town on leave from his Naval Officer training. So he and aunt Robyn and our cousins Evan and Jake stayed with us a couple of days.
It was lots of fun. The best part was watching Uncle Bryan tease Colin. We didn't get a good picture of all of us, but here's one with Aunt Robyn, Colin, and Uncle Bryan.
That's all I've got for now. I'm going to my four month well-baby check-up on Monday, so look for that recap next week.
