today marked our second trip to the hospital with the little man. for an appointment at least, and not for an emergency. he had his 4 month check up last week and it was all good. except his percentiles jumped a lot. he went from being in the 15th or so overall to 50th in height and 75th in weight and 90th in head circumference. the latter is what caused us to be at the hospital today.
i guess a jump in head percentile can mean there's a fluid blockage somewhere. maybe. even though developmentally he's at least on par if not ahead of the game. and since his other areas did also increase, this was more precautionary. i guess since he's still got a good soft spot all he needed was an ultrasound. if we waited and they needed to check then it would lead to an mri with sedation. yeah, i'll take the ultrasound, thanks.
so here's my not-so-little man with his giant noggin in the jumper for the first time. he loves it.

OMG he's absolutely adorable.
For what it's worth, Smacky has always had a giant head, especially relative to his body size.
Jumper already? That went so fast!
