Laughing Out Loud

I filmed this right side up, but somehow the file is upside down. Either way, I hope you enjoy some Felix giggles. I know I do!

Poolside



90+ degree weather today, so the Gillet Family hit the pool. Felix befriended a squirt-y whale and sting ray. Apparently he bites his friends, and he cracked us up by making the ray squirt with every chew.

Onesie weather

A very proportionate boy

Outside of posting a picture here and a video there we have not been very dilegent much here; I blame Facebook, so here's some words. Yesterday we went to the doctor for Felix's four month check-up to address our list of mild-but-concerning items and get him imunized for diseases that probably haven't been around since his grandparents were kids (thank you immunizations). I have to admit that I was reluctant to go (the list of chores/ appeal of a quite morning/ why send two people to do a one person job) but obviously went along and was very happy to have the family time. The best part of going to the doctor is the uneventful, banal feeling that- despite how weird you think you are- most doctors will shrug it off unless there is something really wrong. It is amazing that a doctor can look at a spot and say, "Oh, that's just a thing that kids get," and this makes me all feel at ease. So after brushing off all of Felix's little imperfections, taking his measurements and squeezing his fat little appendages Dr. Endo deemed Felix to be a stong and "Very proportionate boy." Each of his measurements fall right in between the curved lines pointing to 75 to 90th percentile:
Weight: 17' 2.2"
Height: 27"
Head Diameter: 17"
IQ: Profound Genius
