Kayla 4 month stats

Kayla had her 4 month appointment on October 31st. 

I was able to take Sean to a friends to make the visit easier. 

Sorry Sean but you are a hand-full. 

Weight: 11 lbs 2 oz

Length: 21.5 inches

    Since she was born two months early she was evaluated as if she were 2 months old. All aspects of her development, except some social skills, are like a 2 month old. Social skills like eye contact and smiling are a little more advanced than a two month old cause she's been here longer and been able to practice those skills!

She finally got released from her monitor after two full months of no issues. So back it went to the medical store. Woohoo! Sean had one also so it was the same ol-same ol with this gadget. It served its purpose well, but we're glad to not be woken at 3am by the many false alarms. Oh, but we still wake at 3am to feed her...("we" meaning "I")

She got two shots and was given neon band-aides, so trendy!

Other Kayla Stats include...

• size 2 disposable diaper and x-small Fuzzibunz, and she can now fit in Sean's one size diapers on a super small setting. She's starting to leak out of the x-smalls!
• fits in some NB things like pants and skirts, 3 month or 3-6 for all else
• She eats 3-3.5 ozs every 3 hours. Still wakes through the night.
• smiling like a champ
• her eyes are still dark brown and I think they'll stay that way
• cooing and making shapes with her mouth
• brings her hands to her mouth but not too controlled yet
• she has good head control and a strong torso
• no rolling over yet
• loves being in the Moby wrap. I wear her to my bible study weekly and the older ladies always comment that they wish they had one in their day. (I really don't know how I'd do it other wise)
• Sleeps on her tummy (yes I know, but she sleeps so well this way)

She is doing so well and it is fun seeing Sean and Kayla interact. I'm excited for when she can move around and they can play together more. Grow Kayla grow...but not too fast!!
