4 Months

This is the face that makes everything better!

Lucy turned 4 months old yesterday. Today was her 4 month well-baby checkup, and some more shots. I was dreading those because she had a major freak out last time she got her shots. But she actually did really good. Only screamed bloody murder 2 or 3 times, a few sniffles, and then she was okay... until we got home and she decided to go on strike against a nap until 6:30 pm.. its been a long day!


Anyways, her stats are- Height- 25.5" (90th percentile! yikes!!) Weight- 14.4 oz (65th percentile- and close to double her birth weight), and Head size- 16.8" circumference (89th percentile). Needless to say, she is growing like a weed. I consider myself extremely blessed to have such a healthy and well-mannered baby.

Other things:
-laughs and grunts
-sucks on her fingers any chance she gets. it is super cute, but super slobbery!
-i started her on rice cereal, and she's almost figured out the whole "spoon" concept. lets shoot for attempt #3!
-can roll over onto her left side now
-sticks her tongue out and blows bubbles
-sleeping 9-10 hours a night

We are flying to PA on Wednesday and I'm almost bursting with excitement! I'm looking forward to the much needed break :)

Also- I just made my Grandma's banana bread for the first time. Amazing! I never realized how easy it is to make! You can find the recipe here.
