4 Months Old and Still Freeloading!

The Wee One's 4 month report:

Height: 25 1/4" (90%)
Weight: 13 lb 14.6 oz (50%)
Head Circumference: 41.8 cm (80%)

As it probably seems to most people, given Rachel and I's remarkably unremarkable living habits, Luna surviving this long is truly a shocker! You might find that funny, but only a few short years ago, we couldn't even keep a goldfish alive. Or the next one we bought. Or the next one... or the next. Well, you get the picture.

Luna continues the struggle for babies everywhere...

Get those parents out of bed! EARLY! Keep those diapers clean!
Mix those bottles! Sop up the drool!

"Getting tired? Haha! Think again, lazy!
I've got at least 5 more things to cry about before I'll even consider getting drowsy!"

She may run a tight ship, but there's one issue that we just can't let go of. Luna just can't pull her weight around here. Not only does Luna refuse to go out and look for a job or cook and clean, but she literally cannot pull her massive hunk of flesh across the floor. Not only that, but she holds looming threats or spit up and diaper blow-outs over our heads. Maybe she's broken... Well, probably not, since we just took her to the pediatrician's office and they gave us the news: we're stuck with a healthy little girl for what may seem like a lifetime. I guess we can make it work. If we keep at it, maybe she WILL get a job. Maybe she WILL stop demanding that we pick her up and carry her, especially when any rational person would just walk across the room to get something to put in their mouths! Gah Luna! We're not your slaves!

And now... for some pictures I took at the baby repair facility (and some other ones I put on facebook), but you may want to tell your kids to go the other room. She's scantily clad!
