Yesterday was Lottie's 4 month check up. She weighed in at 13 lbs 4 oz and is now 24 inches long. She is in the 25th % for both weight and height but is proportioned nicely. She is also right on track with her development. She smiles, follows objects with her eyes, looks around when she hears our voices, laughs and coos "sings" pretty regularly.
Next up - RICE CEREAL - we will probably start that in the next week. The pediatrician said to slowly introduce her to it. We are going to have to get the video camera out for that!
Last but not least, sweet baby had to have 3 shots - one liquid shot by mouth and one shot in each thigh. It breaks my heart to see her in pain, but thankfully after a few cuddles, she is back to her old laughing, smiling self again. She was a trooper! I wish she was old enough for me to buy her an ice cream afterwards, but I guess that will have to wait a little longer.
Her next appointment is for her 6 month check up - it is scheduled for 8/22/11.
