As many of you know, Skyler started the week of with a wonderful visit from cousin Nikki & cousin Jodi, Auntie Kevie & Uncle Larry, and also Jordan & Dustin. By mid week, she finally had recuperated from all the excitement and fun and then I had to take her to see her pediatrician so she could get her 4 month old shots that Wednesday morning. Talk about going from amusing to annoying real quickly!
Before the Shots
Anyway, Skyler tipped the scale at 13 pounds, 9 ounces and was 25 inches long. She is in the 80 percentile for her height (meaning, she'll have some long legs as she gets older) and she was in the 50 percentile for her weight (average....not too chubby...not too thin.)
Dr. Eanett said she was "PERFECT" and still such a happy, healthy little girl. During the third shot, Skyler she just let out a loud scream and before the nurse could even walk out of the room, she was back to being little Miss Smiley! She was such a champion and I was a proud Mummy! By the time I got her in the car and drove the 4 miles to work, she was passed out. Her next doctor visit will be around her 6 month birthday, November 30th.
After the Shots
Skyler is rolling over more often---flipping herself during tummy time to get to point A to point B, so I'm having to step up my Mum halk-eyed vision! She is still interested in her feet, blowing bubbles and chatting a lot lauder and much more often. Even her laugh has gotten stronger. Patty cake seems to be her favorite game. She also realizes that objects continue to exist even when she can't see them. If a toy falls out off her swing while she's playing with it, she struggles to get down to look for it. Pretty neat stuff. Here she is in one of her many active, silly moods at work. Just another fun day at the office!
