I'm tall. By Shepard

Modeling my new beanie from Nicole

Today I went to see the doctor. He's a big guy who always pokes at me and puts the cold tubey thing on my chest. He also looks in my ears. I guess he's making sure I still have a brain or something.
He says I look very good. Then the short blond lady comes in and I don't know what she was doing on my leg 'cause I was looking at mommy but it pinched and made me cry. Mommy said that it would keep me healthy. Mommy thought she was making me think about something else with that bug toy but it still hurt but only for a minute then I was better.
In the folder with all of my stuff the doctor wrote on the tall chart, "Father 6'10"." That must mean something about Daddy being as tall as the doorway. I wonder if I will be tall like a doorway. I am taller than 95% of other baby boys my age. Mommy knew this must be happening because every time she puts a new outfit on me it doesn't seem to fit right. I thought maybe she would cry this morning when those brown overalls were too short. She called them highwaters and showed Daddy and said it's all your fault. And my ankles got cold. So she took them off and was talking about how she would have to learn how to sew more than just german outfits so she could make clothes that would fit me. I hope she works something out because I don't just want for my ankles to be cold a lot.

Everything else is going just fine. I already weigh 15 and a half pounds so the doctor said I could eat some cereal. I wonder if that tastes like what Mommy and Daddy eat, because sometimes their food is stinky like that curry stuff Daddy eats. I'm not sure about all that. I will let you know what I decide.  I like being four months old because I get to sit in my bumbo seat and I think they are going to put together my exersaucer. I think I will like to exersauce. I have seen my friends exersauce at school and it looks like fun especially because there are things I can put in my mouth and press on.

Mmmm...pork.

I like school pretty good. I get to see other babies there and play with them and nap. Speaking of nap...see you later!
