So our big 4 month old had her check up today and she's doing great. Duh. She weighs 15lbs 11oz (77%) and is 26 1/2" (95%). I was pretty shocked that she was only in the 77th percentile for weight. I mean, look at her. That makes her my smallest baby - still! She was born the smallest and Bryce and Skylar rocked the charts on both height and weight at this age. Not to say that 77th percentile is tiny by any means but you look at her and you just see rolls! Her doctor made an early guess that she'll be built just like me and maybe even a bit taller then me. I'm happy that she'll be tall and lean but hoping she isn't taller then me because it's hard being a tall girl. She's right on track developmentally and doc even said she could start rice cereal if we're ready. We're not. Well, I'm not. The recommendation is between 4-6 months and considering she
just turned 4 months, we've got time. What's the rush, right? I also asked the doctor if he would take a look at her ears because for the past two nights she's been waking up. She's teething right now but my speculation was ear infection and I was right. Poor sweetness has her first ear infection. We started her on antibiotics tonight so hopefully we knock the crud out soon. She also had her shots and I cried - again. Hate that! But other then that she did great!
Tonight I also had my very first spray tan and what a mess. First off, it's with a technician so they have a gun spraying an even coat all over you rather then a concentrated mess in a booth. Sounds good, right? Problem is you have to bend over, lift up your butt cheeks, open your legs, etc. Not really a confidence booster 4 months after giving birth. And the greasy, sticky feeling afterwards?! YUCK! I'm also a bit worried because I had to nurse Eva and even though I didn't spray my breasts, she was breathing it in and later I found a brown smudge across her face. Sigh. I really want to take a shower but Matthew is insisting I wait until the scheduled time so I don't undo what I just paid for. So stay tuned for the final review...
Bryce and Skylar helped in taking my mind off of how gross I felt by entertaining us with a "caution party." I think she was trying to say fashion party but maybe mixed in a bit of costume party and we got "caution party." First up was the damsel in distress...kissing the naked dragon?
Bet you don't ever read that in your fairy tell books! They love each other so much! And this had Matthew and I laughing hysterically. Next up was my favorite but definitely not Daddy's. Two lovely princesses on an evening stroll...
He makes a pretty princess, right? Tell me God doesn't know what he's doing when he gives my "gentle-giant" 2 sisters?! Bryce has so much patience and will do just about anything to make Skylar happy! LOVE OUR BABES! Once the "caution-party" was over, it was off to bed for my little dears. Mama too. I'm tuckered out and ready for my pillow! zzzz
