Four months ago today, I was at the hospital with Doug ...in labor and anxiously awaiting to meet Alexa. It was truly one of the most exciting and wonderful days of my life-- I loved the entire journey of that day from start to finish :) And...the last four months have been hard and wonderful all at once....and a huge learning process in so many ways. We just can't believe our little girl is four months old!
And today, Alexa had her four month appointment, and she is the picture of health...here's her stats:
Head Size: 95%, Height: 95% (surprise surprise...she has a 5'11 Mom & a 6'5 Dad), Weight: 90% (Here's to the wonder of breastmilk!).
Our pediatrician and, of course, Doug & I are so pleased with her growth and how healthy she is...we are so thankful to God and do not take this for granted.
Things overheard today at her 4 month appointment by the nurse and doctor:
*"She is so aware, wide-eyed and observant." (yep, that's what everyone's said since Day 1!)
* "Hmm...She must look like her Dad and his side of the family..." (LOL--I have also heard this one quite a few times!)
* "She is such a happy easy going baby...look at her...always smiling and entertaining herself !!!" (I think she was just showing off for the doctor, but I'll take it ((wink)).
* "Your buying her the next size up car seat soon (the convertible car seat), right? She's almost too long (tall) for the infant seat!" (We know...and we are...thanks. :)~
Happy Thursday!
Kate
