4 Month Check-Up

Well Sadie turned 4 months on Sunday. I wanted to wait until her doctors appointment today before I posted about it so I could share her growth.

She is 25 inches and in the 75% percentile for height.
She weighs 14.8 pounds putting her in the 73rd percentile for weight.

Here are two pictures of her at her doctors appointment today.




Did she start out on her tummy. Certainly not. She was originally on her back with her head on the pillow. But she rolled and turned while she was in the process of flapping her legs and arms on the paper so she could get it to make the crinkle sound.

She was quite pleased with herself and happy to be in a position to eat the paper.

The doctor was AWESOME. I started Sadie on Rice cereal on Monday and was nervous that I would be berated by the doctor for not waiting until 6 months. Had we been in Oregon with a "hippy" doctor I would have. But she actually said it was a great idea since Sadie spits up so much. Sweet!

So here is our littlest one, proving to be not so little anymore. While I'm proud of her growth and strength, (the doctor was so surprised at how in control she was) I still wish she would take her time growing up.
