Adalynn had her 4 month appointment about 2 weeks ago and everything the doctor said was positive! She weighs 15lbs 13oz which is 90th percentile. Her height is a whopping 2 inches taller than her sister at this age and places her in the 98th percentile. And her little ol' head is 99th percentile! Dr. Jiang asked if she was formula fed because this is not normal for nursing babies to rank so high! She also said that if she's late in rolling over or other milestones to not be alarmed, that is sometimes the case with bigger babies. But her sister never rolled and barely crawled, so I'm not concerned anyway!
We were told to make use of the exersaucer. Dr. Jiang said it would be good for her rolly polly legs to help develop for standing.

She sleeps with her mouth open and snores ocassionally. Sister brought home a virus from school so she's slept with her mouth opened more often than not lately. She's a grunter too, not matter what the reason; reaching for something, concentrating. or other baby things! 
Tummy time is bareable with the boppy now! But if you remove the boppy, she normally just lays there and smiles or nuzzles the carpet looking for groceries! That is until she's had enough.
Sister making her "photo bomb" entrance! Oh ya and she's drooling like crazy. Dr. Jiang said yes, she's teething. However this phase can last awhile until the first one breaks through, so it's a long and painful road right now.
Fingers, teethers, toys and blankets all find there way to the mouth. She's reaching for things and will put in and pull out her pacifier. She even reached for Mommy the other day! Yay!
I found the next photo a little sad....sister hung her binky in the toy spot. It was as if she was reaching for it saying "I need you to help me fall asleep....awe screw it!"
Sleep has been an issue with being sick, but I think we've turned that corner....that is until Lauren brings us another preschool bug from one of her 21 new friends!
