4 months

On Tuesday we went to Perry's 4 month checkup.  Here are her stats:


Weight: 16lbs. 11.5oz - 97%
Heights: 26.5 inches - 97%
Head Circumference - 43 cm - 90%

She is a big girl!  At 4 months, Perry can roll from front to back both ways and from back to front one way.  She always rolls left when on her back.  She can spin in a circle while on her tummy which is pretty funny and when on her back she uses her heels and digs in to the ground and scoots herself.  I am so not ready for her to be mobile!  She still nurses great which I am so thankful for.  I have no idea how many ounces she takes but obviously she is getting plenty of nutrition.  :)  We started giving her a little rice cereal last week but she's only had it a few times.  She likes it (what little of it actually makes it into her mouth).  She sleeps from 10 to 8:30 and usually wakes up at 5:30am for a snack.  I feed her and put her right back down and she talks for a bit in her crib and then goes back to sleep.  I totally don't mind her 5:30 wake up call.  I am very grateful for that time with her early in the morning when she is super snuggly.  She wears all 6-12 month clothes and a size 2 diaper.  She loves the exersaucer and still loves the sling.  She still takes a paci occasionally but isn't really attached to it, she chews on her fingers instead.   



I put her in the tunnel at the other end on her belly, I was in the next room folding laundry and came back to check on her a few minutes later and this is how I found her.

Kathy - That precious girl has changed since you were in Houston. She is getting more beautiful every day. I think you're going to have a tall girl there.

Give her kisses from her Jannie.

P.S. Please don't let Deacolee read this post and feel bad about himself. But knowing him, he'll just smile his sweet smile.
