4 month check up

I took Emmalyn for her 4 month check up and took Max along too.  He was pretty well behaved and I felt a little bit of pride at managing them both successfully.

She was happy as always


The doctor erased my choices on her 4 month questionnaire before I could get a picture.  :(  But here's what the questions were.  She has nearly all "yes" answers.



Her pediatrician talked about starting her on solids however I personally feel strongly about waiting until she is 6 months old so I am not going to start solids at this point.  He was pleased with her check up and said her physical exam was "awesome" and her development was "excellent" and noted that she was very social.

Max got this tool set from the Rays next door as a birthday present and was extremely excited.

Poor girl got 2 shots but did a great job with quickly recovering from them.

Can you find the photobomber?

Look at those cheeks!

Max has been doing the summer reading challenge through our city and we read 600 minutes within 2 1/2 months.  He got a bunch of freebies from vendors/merchants around town.  We will have fun using them up!

Check out that dimpled.  I am so in love with this dimple!







video - she did a great job dealing with her shots this time - way to go girlie!

I got a tomato off my plant!!!!  I shared half of it with Brittany.  It was absolutely delicious.

My version of an "adult" beverage - a diet coke!  It tasted so good.

Max had to bring a stuffed animal to Kindermusik.  I turned around and noticed him hugging it sweetly.

That's enough, Momma!

Here's her stats from her 4 month visit:
Weight: 11 lbs 11 oz, 6th Percentile
Height: 23.5 in, 9th Percentile
Head: 15.5in, 16th Percentile

4 months old!!!

I can't believe she's 4 months old already.  She is such a joy!!!

She looks big, but she's not.  (Those shoes should fit but her feet swim in them)

kisses = eating Momma's face

Max tried on my glasses (that I never wear)

Playing in the dirt in the development behind our house.  He really enjoys throwing rocks.

Emmalyn loves bathtime

Family pic

Max wanted to help give her a bath, such a sweet big brother!



(See the sink full of clothes?  Yeah.  That's totally common.  There's always 2-3 outfits in their soaking because she's blown out or leaked out on them.  Lovely.)

Kicking away happily



Think she's a daddy's girl?

Have you ever thought, "My goodness! My kid looks so cute today!"  And then started taking pictures to capture that?  And then you take so many pictures that you can't decide on just one?  Well, that's me.  All the time.  So here's all the pictures that I love from that moment with Emmalyn.
