Allison's four month update


This week Allison went for her four month study at Arkansas Children's Hospital. She had an ultrasound, had her weight and length measured, had her body mass index measured in the "Pea Pod," and had another visit to the brain lab. Allison now weighs 13 lbs and 6 ozs and is 24 inches long.

Before going into the "Pea Pod," the nurse puts a gangsta cap on Allison. She looks very tough.

Then, Allison is loaded into the pod like a torpedo to have her body mass measured.

And last, Allison's visit to the brain lab was not as traumatic an experience it has been in the past. Although tears were shed, she did very well and finished quickly. And we got more free diapers!

Thanks for the good laugh. I loved her gangsta cap. Not many other babies can say they have worn a gangsta cap!!!

Oh, yes, I love the gangsta cap. Major blackmail material when she starts dating! I was so glad to see her again at the wedding. Such a cutie!

After reviewing these photos, I'm skeptical about this "brain study" program. Are you sure they're not fitting her for a capsule to launch her into space towards another planet before the earth explodes?

Kim, Allison looks just like you in the picture with the gangsta cap!

What a doll!
