Today we went in for Elsie Anne's 4 month check up, but we were 2 wks late, oops! So, its official... she is a 'String Bean'!! She weighs 12.4lbs, which is in the 10th percentile + is almost 25in long, which is in the 75th percentile! I can't believe she has grown almost an inch per month! Dr. Winfield said, "she is a thriving, healthy, perfect little baby." EA showed off all of her milestones + loved Dr. W's attention! We got the 'go ahead' to start rice cereal, followed by fruits + veges! EA "will still get all of her nutrition from breast milk b/c the food will just be for practice @ this point!" I'm sure there will be some funny pics of her first eating experience!! At the end of the appt, EA had to get 3 shots... we both shed a few tears, but w/ in minutes were all better! That shriek is the WORST sound to a mother's ears :(
We ended our day w/ an evening walk in town w/ Meghan + Carter! We peeked in @ Daddy while he was working @ Eric's! He loves his boost of happiness when he sees his girls. I didn't have my camera w/ me today, so no pics... But tomorrow my DAD will be here! EA can't wait to get to spend some time w/ Big Daddy!
She sure is a string bean! I love your new look as well...I was contemplating the comment blinker and after seeing it, I might have to have it too!
