Elise at 4 months!

Elise Micaela
4 months and counting...

This week Elise had her 4 month check up. It's hard to believe 4 months have come and gone so quickly!

She's getting SO BIG! Here's her measurements:

Weight: 14 lbs. 15.6 oz. (71%)

Length: 24 1/2 inches (51%)

Head Circumference: 16 1/4 (52%)

Here's what she's been up to:

~Almost 2 weeks before she hit 4 months, her first tooth broke through!
~She is able to sit up with a little support
~She's got STRONG legs and stands often (with help of course!)
~She reaches for things and grabs them
~She reaches for toys and they head DIRECTLY for her mouth!
~She talks a lot
~She laughs a lot!
~She's very ticklish!
~She sits in her Bumbo and plays with her toys
~She grabs her toes (and sometimes gets them in her mouth!)
~She loves to smile (some folks can get more smiles out of her than others!)

It seems like everyday brings about something new that she's learning or doing!

After her Dr. appointment, she started her first solids, Rice Cereal! Yum. Below are some pics of her first time trying it out.



I love that sweet face!

She grabbed the spoon right out of my hand

She moves so much that it's hard to be clean about it!
