Well, I am a little behind. Last week Lilly had her 4 month check up! We knew she was not goin to be at the top of the growth charts because she still has newborn shorts that fall right off of her little booty! Her official weight is 11.13 lbs, which puts her in the 12th percentile on the chart! She is just a little thang! But she is measuring 25 inches long, which puts her in the 75th percentile! And her head circumference is at the 57th percentile. So the Doc said that he is not terribly concerned with her weight, she is just tall and skinny and that is not a bad thing! We will be goin back at 5 months for a weight check, and he said as long as she is gaining (even if it is only half a pound) everthing is good.
Developmentally, he said she is right on course. Actually a little ahead! She has started completely rolling over both ways!! She has so much control with her hands and she even gave Dr. Cosgrove a few smiles. She did get a few shots while we were there, and she handled them like a champ! She did scream a little, but she was done with that by the time we were leaving the office, then she just slept.... and slept ... and slept! Then in the evening she had all of her energy back and wanted to play in the exersaucer!
She is growin up so fast!!
Such a silly girl!
"Mommy and I were just hangin out.... and then"
We have started giving her baby food! We gave her Avocados first and she really liked those. Second was Sweet Potatoes.
She wasn't sure at first...
But finally decided that they were pretty great and couldn't get enough! Now if she could get the majority of them in her mouth we would be in good shape!
"What are you lookin at?"
"Yeah, I have super powers..."
"Mommy says I am Super Lilly.... Daddy says I am a Super Pooper..... we all know that daddey is probably right!"
"It's a bird... It's a plane... NO! It's SUPER LILLY!
"Yeah, I'm pretty awesome!" =)
As you can see, she really loves when her daddy reads to her, hopefully she will develop his love for reading too!
She is such a sweet baby!
....as usual!
she just loves hangin with papaw!
She really loved it...
In about 3 weeks we will start baby food!! We are so excited!
