Luke had his 4 month check-up on Tuesday. He weighed in at 12 lbs and 11 ozs, in the 25th percentile! They said he is 24 3/4" long - let's just say 25"! His legs weren't completely stretched out anyway. So his length is in the 50th percentile. His head is apparently a bit small though, it is in the 3-5 percentile! But that is still within the normal range. I don't think his head looks small, I just think it is growing up and not out (does that make sense?). It will catch up.
Now on to the great news - his heart murmur is gone! Dr. Roads listened and re-listened and he couldn't hear it, so he is confident that the holes have closed. We will still have to go to Vanderbilt in November for another check-up, but Garen and I are so relieved! Our little boy his healthy.
Last Sunday we had Luke's pictures taken and some family photos too. If anyone cares to look at them, the photographer's website is http://web.mac.com/dawnlombard/iWeb/photo/Lucas.html If you open them in internet explorer the color and quality looks poor, so if you have another browser, use that.
Nothing else really happened this week. We stayed home and did a lot of playing. This week will be a lot of the same. We are leaving next Saturday morning for Destin, Fl. with Garen's family. Joanne and Richard and all of the sibling will be there, which will make a very full house! The total will be 9 adults, 1 toddler, and 3 babies under 1! I'm excited to see everyone and I can't wait to put the babies together and see how they interact.

Im glad to see that Lucas is getting aquainted to the tiger, as I'm sure he'll be an LSU fan. Love, Joanne
Great news about the murmur! I know you are so relieved. Sounds like you are still enjoying being at home. I'm glad it has worked out for you. I love the picture of the 3 of you 'stacked' on top of each other. Would have never thought of that pose, but it is adorable! Have a great vacation!
