Roll over, spoon feeding, growing girl....4 months!!!

Well, Braylin is now 4 months (and 3 days) old! We feel like she has changed so much just in the last week. Took her to her 4month appointment on Friday so she could get her shots...she did great thru the whole appointment, but the shots brought out some tears.

She decided she wanted to roll over for the first time right there on the exam table. I was totally in shock when she did it cause I had been trying and trying at home with no luck. Now she's discovered it's quite fun, so we get an occasional roll-over. :)

Weight: 14lb 14oz
Length: 25 1/4 inches

The big, fun news: We started on spoon feeding!!! Dr. Haynes wanted us to go ahead and start her on some rice cereal in the mornings and evenings along with her formula, and I was so excited! Especially when she said to spoon feed it to her instead of a bottle!!! It took a few times for Braylin to get the hang of a spoon, but now she seem to think it's fun -- fun to swallow just a little and spit the rest back out.

Almost 4 months....









Wednesday, May 6, 2009

Well, it's about time!

I cannot believe how horribly bad I've been slacking on the postings! It's almost been a month since I posted anything, and I feel like there's WAY too much to type about. So let's see where I should begin....

Braylin is growing way too fast for us! She's already passed her 3 month mark, and though we would love for her to stay the age and size she is now it's so exciting to watch how much she's changing so quickly. Reaching out and grabbing things, holding her paci to her mouth, sitting in her Bumbo, drinking out of the 3month bottle nipple, trying her best to attempt to roll over (not quite getting there yet), LOVING the NBA playoff games (she could sit with Jay and watch the games for hours -- turn the tv to a basketball game and she's hooked), continuing to be amazed by her Baby Einstein DVDs, outgrowing her 3month clothes, and the list could go on and on.

Here's a few pictures from some things we've done over the past month or so....

Bumbo chair -- I can hardly wait until she's able to enjoy sitting in this!



Stylin' in her new sunglasses -- getting ready for the beach!


Meeting Elyse for the first time! Elyse is 2 months older than Braylin. What a happy little girl! She was in town for her Aunt Laura's engagement party. We had so much fun getting to see them, and Braylin was thrilled (I'm sure of it) to meet Laura for the first time too!!!
