Campbell is still sick so we took him to the doctor today.  He had a low grade fever, 99.5, and has still been waking up a lot at night.  The doctor said it’s probably a virus that’s just lingering, so there’s not much to do except ride it out.  We felt a little bad for waiting so long to take him, but, hey, we’re both doctor’s kids.  When we said that to the pediatrician, he said, “oh, so neither of you had any health care growing up.”  :).

The plus side of this is that we got a height and weight measurement on Campbell.  He was almost 27 inches tall and 18 1/2 pounds exactly.  Mason and I had a competition before the weight, but I predicted it exactly!  This means he’s made the height and weight charts for both his actual and corrected ages.  I left the charts at my office, but will post a picture when I get back to work next week.

Here are the stats:

Corrected Age (5 months, 11 days)

Height – 73.5%ile
Weight – 78.9%ile
Actual Age (8 months, 11 days)
Weight – 8.24%ile
Height – 36.98%ile

So, he’s doing great!

And, here are more “test run” Halloween pictures below.  Fortunately, he isn’t acting like he feels very sick.
