4 months old!

Baby girl turned 4 months this past week!  I can’t believe how big she’s getting!!!  Here are her stats…

Weight: 13.10 lbs, 50th%

Height: 25 1/2  75%

So I had to go back and see where she is compared to Bo at this age and believe it or not she’s at the exact same height!!!  Guess I’m going to have another tall kiddo!  He was exactly 2 lbs heavier at 15.10 haha!

The pediatrician said she was perfect!  Of course, did we ever have to question that??  They went ahead and did the blood work for the allergy testing and I found out today that it came back abnormal.  I haven’t talked to the allergist yet, but just from talking with the pediatrician she thinks there is a slight allergy that hopefully she’ll grow out of by a year.  This past weekend we’ve been battling a horrible stomach virus.  She started running fever on Friday at 103.8 and has had horrible, horrible diarrhea so we spent the weekend giving lots of TLC!!  The fever is gone today, but she’s still having tummy issues.

A few of her new things include..

• playing with her hands and feet!  For some reason this has always been one of my favorite things.  I love to just sit and watch her try to figure them out.  She’ll just stare at her hands forever.
• She loves her “lovey” or as Bo calls it a “night night”.  My friend Janice gave her a pink elephant lovey when she was born and we have started giving it to her.  She loves to hold things, she’s been this way since birth always holding our fingers.  She got to wear she was wanting something to do with her hands when we’d put her down to bed and scratching her face was just not an option.  So we give it to her and let her fall asleep with it, but take it out of her crib once she’s asleep, we did the same thing with Bo!  Funny, just like Bo she wants to snuggle up to it with her face.  He STILL does this with his!
• She hates her car seat…hates it. She’s fine once she gets in it and we get moving, but there’s no just hanging out in the car seat.
• Coos and squeals all the time!
• She’s rolling!!  She went from back to tummy an entire month before big brother did!  I wish I could tell you I sat and watched the entire thing take place, but I didn’t.  I had put her down on her playmat while I was in the kitchen cooking dinner and I looked up to see she had rolled over all on her own!  What’s odd is the easiest roll is from tummy to back and she still hasn’t figured that out!

Life is great with this li’l peanut and it’s even more fun to see Bo grow into the big brother role.  He loves her so much and is always making sure she’s okay.  Especially if someone comes up to her, you better believe he’s right there with his hand on her standing guard!

 

        

I realize this picture doesn’t exactly fit in a “Charlotte” post, but it was too cute not to put on here.  This was Sunday morning…Bo wanted to be like daddy so he got his “newspaper” aka the Toys R Us add and climbed up in daddy’s lap!  Don’t you love Jarrod’s pajama pants haha!
