Maya was officially 4 months old this past Saturday!! I can't believe my baby is getting so big!! She had her 4-month check up yesterday and was a very good girl! Here are her new stats: weight: 16 pounds, 2 ounces!!! (90th percentile); height: 24 3/4 inches (75th percentile); head: 16 1/2 inches (75th percentile). She had to get 5 vaccines yesterday - one by mouth and 4 shots :( I was not looking forward to them, given the screams she let out last time.... This time she did REALLY well! She actually didn't cry at all until the 3rd shot, then she looked at the nurse, like, "hey - what the hell was that??!!" and let out a big ole scream. She calmed down pretty quickly, though, as soon as it was over and hasn't had any ill-effects since then! She's so easy-going that shots don't even seem to dampen her mood! She took a nap in the car on the way home and was all smiley again when she woke up.
She is doing awesome on her baby milestones - doing everything the doctor says she's supposed to be doing...and them some. We got the ok to try cereal, but he said no rush, so just whenever we're ready we can try it. We haven't yet, but in the next couple weeks we may take the cereal plunge! :) I'm sure there will be good pictures to post from that!!

Having Macy should give Maya an incentive to crawl so she can "protect" her toys and her territory - ha! Macy already owns your whole house, I'll bet, and now Maya has to stake her claim!!
ReplyDeleteMay just gets lovelier as she gets older (sigh)...beauty certainly seems to run in your families! Kiss her for me, too,
Love, Colleen
