First of all, let me say "Happy 4-Month Birthday today Layla Scout!" My how time flies! She is such an amazing gift from God and blesses our lives every day! "Thank you God for entrusting this sweet angel of yours to us! Please help us raise her in Your ways! Amen!"
Next, Layla's 4 month check-up was last Thursday, July 2nd. She got her four month shots, and here are her stats:
She weighed 11 lbs 4.8 oz. (10%)
She measured 23.25 inches long (b/t 10 & 25 %).
And her head circumference was 16.54 inches (almost 40% - she's got a Westbrook head).
He also told us to go ahead and start her on rice cereal, fruits, and veggies. So, we began rice cereal on Sunday night. She didn't much care for the taste of it. She would let me give it to her with the spoon just great. But once she tasted it, she would spit it out. Then she began just leaving her mouth open so it would just roll right on out of there. :) And, she was crying the whole time. She was very thankful when we stopped giving her the rice cereal and I nursed her.
And, we can say that the first time we gave her "food" she kicked the bowl over. We were feeding her in her Bumbo and I set the bowl down on the table...a little too close to her foot. She was mad and kicking and kicked that bowl right over. Oops! It just made us laugh harder. Don't call us cruel...I guess you just had to be there. :)
When I get the video loaded on the computer, I'll post it b/c we were cracking up at her. Soo funny!
She's up and hungry. I'll post more later.
