Four Months!

Eliza is four months old! We had her well-baby checkup yesterday and she's taking the immunizations pretty hard today, running a low fever and just being pretty much pathetic. Poor kiddo.

The doc said she's looking great! She weighed in at 17lbs even and is 25 3/4 inches long. Her head measured at 43cm. That puts her at the 97th percentile for length (she was at the 50th last time!), 95th for her head and "over 97th" for weight. I'm not really sure what that means - does the chart only go up to 97th? Is our little girl off the charts? :-p

Eliza has been changing so much recently. Last week she spent two days having sooo much fun rolling over. She went from back to tummy once and then tummy to back countless times. She clearly loved it but then she just stopped - hasn't rolled over since. I guess she's done with that and ready to move onto bigger and better things! She's holding her big ol' noggin much more steadily now and loves to sit in her bumbo and watch what's going on. She also likes to be on the floor a lot more, just talking and playing with her toys. Recently she has really discovered that she can make noise - mostly in the form of yelling. It's sooo adorable (though I think other restaurant patrons might disagree!)

The kiddos start back at school today and it's a little bittersweet, but especially with E being so sad and pathetic I'm so glad to be home to comfort her.

Sometimes she falls asleep in the most inconvenient places - and then I am stuck :-p

E loves this toy - it vibrates which just fascinates her

Tummy time!

A little over a week ago, still pretty shaky with that head

Suddenly she's figured out how to hold it up!
