4 month check up

It has been 3 weeks since Clark's last check up...

June 2nd Stats:
Weight 6 lbs 12 oz
Length 19 1/4 inches

June 23rd Stats: (drumroll, please.....)
Weight 8 lbs 4 oz
Length 21 inches

Clark is right on track, growing big and strong...

He got some immunizations today and took them like a champ...tough little (I mean, HUGE) guy he is...

Here is us napping after a big day out with shots and stuff.


We have taken Clark for cranial-sacral therapy with Diane Sandler for the past two weeks...he totally digs it and we can see and feel him as he works to re-align himself and expand in all directions...releasing trauma from his birth and NICU experience...quite amazing to witness and support him during that. We can hear his story as he goes deep into the release...and Jason and I both tear up every time.

What a blessing this little boy is...we sometimes take pause and reflect on his journey thus far and well up with emotional pride...looking at each other with complete understanding...we are so grateful...so very grateful...
