Thrillsons: Baby Diesel

Baby Diesel

At Thunderbird, some friends mockingly called me Diesel for my slender build. Well, I have started to call Weston baby Diesel, and it's not for his slender build. He had his 4 month appointment and he is a healthy truck. He tipped the scales at 17.11 lbs and 27.5 inches- both putting him over the 95th percentile for his age. He is doing well and always seems hungry. We are going to start feeding him hot dogs.

Also, spring is kind of in the air. Bloomington is a terrible place to be in the wintertime, but spring more than makes up for it, even if there is a lot of rain. This is a picture of the tree in front of our house during a rain storm, and also what our neighborhood looks like in springtime- it is very nice.

Alex said...: Wow, what a tank! I think Meg might be keeping up with him though. She's got her 2 month tomorrow but I'm thinking she's around 14 lbs so we will see. Maybe Meg will be able to out-chunk even Wes. What a stud- muffin. Love seeing those pictures.; April 16, 2009 at 9:37 PM
Sharee said...: I can't believe how big he is getting! They grow up WAY too fast! We are so excited to have a little boy. If you have any advice, please FEEL FREE to share it. I only know how to do girls. Four little sisters, NO little brothers...; April 17, 2009 at 4:00 PM
Sabrena Suite-Mangum said...: He is so cute guys! I love chunky babies!

Sounds like he and Holden are on the same weight program...our "little" guy is already over 13 lbs and will be 11 weeks tomorrow. (We are feeding him lard everyday, obviously. But hot dogs sound like a good idea too.)

Perhaps creatine is made from breast milk?; April 18, 2009 at 9:09 PM
