Four months - solid food and more shots

Yes, it has been a while since my last update and I'm sorry for the lag time in posting pictures from Thanksgiving/Baptism weekend back in November. After we returned to Columbus, I had one day to unpack, wash clothes, repack and catch a flight to BWI. I got back from a 10-day trip to the University of Delaware Marine Laboratory, where I worked on the fabrication of several environmental probes that we will use down on the ice this year. Now that I'm back, I'm faced with the reality of actually having to be away for not just the 10days I spent on the east coast, but rather closer to two months. Even after 10days, Liam has already noticably changed. He's bigger, more attentive and is definitley starting to 'talk'. He has his own language, and it is truely amazing to watch how he develops speech. Simply and wholly amazing.

Liam has turned 4months this week. 13lbs 12oz and 25in. long. That puts him at 45th percentile for weight and 80th for length. (at what point do we call it height?) He got his latest round of vaccinations and we determined once and for all that shots pretty much suck.

So, I'm off on the 26th and Aby and I are contemplating what to do with this blog space. Currently, we're thinking that I'll keep this up and post pics from Antarctica and we'll start a whole new blog just for Liam where she can post while I'm away. So stay tuned and we'll post the new website address as soon as we can.
