Week 4 Report Card

The new parents group (NPG) meeting was all a little boring for me. Right near the start I decided to do a really big poo in my pants. When mum and dad got to change me it was a mess and I decided to wizz all over my new outfit (Aunty Ann: it has now been christened). So planning and forethought was good, there was an entire change ready to go. However, my little surprises weren't done yet. While the MCH nurse was trying to check all my numbers i thought it prime time to wait until I was naked and pointing in a completely inapropriate direction and wizz all over everything in reach. So Dad's only clean jumper, the only warm one left, was now ready to be washed again. Maybe he should have just worn the sick-covered one to the NPG.But that is just the events of the day. The check-up went well. I have moved out of the ultra-midget class and the gnome class is nearly gone - 4.004 kg (8 lbs 13 oz). That means in the two weeks since the last measurement i have put on 610grams (21 oz). This all means I am getting bigger, heavier and enough to eat. The other numbers were my length, which is now up to 54.5cm top to toe (21.5 inches). Also my head is now 1 whole centimeter more round (35cm circumference (14.2 inches)). There are suspicions that my smaller head size takes after mum, rather than dad's big-head.


P.S. For those of you that want some more specificity in weight conversions, want to know if Erik was a diamond, how many carats he weighs, or something much simpler, like his weight in koku (the way the Japanese would pay their samurai in rice), or even how many Ancient Roman scruples he has. Check this out...
