Makayla turned 4 months old on the 18th. I took her in to the doctors on the 19th and her stats were:
15.6 lb- 73%
23.6 in-15% I came home and measured her myself since they don't do a very accurate job in the office and got 24 3/4 in- 55%
Makayla is getting so strong and still is happy whenever she can sit and observe people. She hates being laid down because she can't see! When she is on the floor in order to see everything she twists and turns and has started turning herself and getting stuck in weird positions. I had Levi walk into the room yesterday and say Makayla is stuck. I walked over to find her sideways in her little toy and her face shoved against the side... Also, when I laid her down for a nap she was busy spinning in circles instead of sleeping. She made it all the way around before I could take a picture and put my camera away!
She loves to talk to you and be talked to. She gets so excited and kicks her legs so fast in excitement. She giggles when you pretend to eat her cheeks:)
She is still in love with her brothers and they both are so so so good with her. Levi is her second dad. He loves to feed her, get her binky, hold her, and talks to her in the cutest baby talk. Such a good help and big brother!
Every night before bed the boys get a horsy ride by dad from the living room to their bedroom. Well, I started having whoever didn't sit on the front give Makayla a horsy ride to their room. Well, now they fight over who gets to give the baby the horsy ride! It is so cute how much they love her.
She has also really started to grab at things. She has started to play with toys I give her. She frequently hands me her binky:) While we were reading books before bed she reached over and grabbed Levi's hair. The boys both thought it was so funny they kept putting their heads in front of her so she would do it again!
We started her on rice cereal this week. She did not really like it the first day, a little better the second day. But, none of my kids really ever liked it. I will probably start the vegetables next week!
She did not react well to her shots this time. She woke up with a fever that night and was very temperamental for quite awhile in the middle of the night and the next day. Can't wait for the next round:)
