4.5 MONTHS

October 23rd - Today Avery went to the doctor (yes again!!) for her 4 month check-up, even though she is now 4 1/2 months old. She weighed in at 15 pounds 10 ounces and is 25 inches long. Developmentally she is right on track. The doctor said and I quote "She is just perfect" as if we didn't already know that. I am really excited because we were given the go ahead to start giving her cereal and then solids. I can't wait to see how she does with cereal. From what I hear this will be a messy and picturesque moment. The visit wasn't all fun....she received 3 shots in her little chubby legs. I have to say Avery (and Mommy) did much better this time. Avery didn't scream as loud and Mommy only shed a couple of tears. We dosed her up with Tylenol and by the time she reached fun place she was fast asleep. Below are some recent pictures of growing girl.

Look how big she is compared to Daddy!!
Avery playing in the kitchen while Mommy makes breakfast.

This picture shows how long she is because her feet are at the end of the changing table. Soon she will have to hang her feet off the end while we change her.


Look how she holds her head up. I just saw this for the first time today while at the doctors. Everytime I try to give her tummy time she lays her head down as if she is going to sleep.
