Friday we took Landon to the doctor for his four month check-up. Sounds like an easy task, but when you live in Turkey and don't speak the language fluently, it can be a bit more difficult. We praise the Lord for Scott's language tutor who speaks a good bit of English. He was able to go with us and help with translation. Scott and I understood most things, but we wanted to be sure Landon was getting the shots he needed! Everything went well. Landon weighs 15 pounds and is 25 inches long! He's going to be tall, I think. He has started wearing 6mo clothes now. They are just the right length, but a little wide.

Thanks for the overalls Mrs. Cynthia!

Landon really has fun in this lady bug. His legs are long enough and strong enough to really bounce around.

He's growing so much!

Here are just a few pictures to keep you updated on what Landon looks like...

Always licking or sucking on his hand

When I have to wake Landon up, this is what he does. It takes several minutes of all this stretching and rubbing his eyes before he's really awake! Just like his daddy!

I put these blocks (inside the green holder) on the other side of Landon's bed for him to look at before he went to sleep. When I came back, this is what I found! He had turned around and all the blocks were out of the holder. He must have done this with his feet!

What a tongue!!

Landon has this toy - we call it the ladybug. It's like an exer-saucer, but is stationary. It has several toys that he can look at, but all he likes to do is lick it! This morning he managed, somehow, to pull the fabric back and stick it in his mouth! The only time he sticks his tongue out like this is when he's sitting in the ladybug. After just 10 minutes in there, his shirt and the ladybug are soaking wet with spit! He loves it, though.

These are just some cute pictures of Landon sitting on the couch. He kept falling over, but was smiling every time!
