4 months!

Height - 25 in (75%)

Weight - 13 lbs 12 oz (41%)

Head Circumference - 15.75 in (33%)

Lilly had her 4 month check up yesterday (she turned 4 months on Mother's Day).  She is doing great.  We haven't been feeding her quite enough, need to add another bottle into her feeding schedule, but she is growing and doing all of the things she is supposed to be doing.

[I was hoping to wait until we got home but Lilly was really fussy (long appointment + shots) so I ended up feeding her before we left the doctor's office.  Learning she needs to take in a few more ounces greatly influenced that decision :)]

Things to expect/anticipate... rolling over, laughing (she has laughed a few times for us), teeth (bottom middle) and introducing solids.  They now recommend waiting until 6 months before introducing solids, including cereal, but Dr. Frank said if she starts showing an interest in food then we can start with fruits and vegetables at 5 to 5 1/2 months.

Lilly has started rubbing her eyes when she is tired, she blows bubbles, babbles, grabs for toys, takes her pacifier in and out of her mouth, has a death grip, plays coy, smiles a lot and is constantly moving (likes to move those legs).

We go back in July for her 6 month check up.
