4 Month Checkup

Today we had Ansley's 4 month checkup, she has changed so much in the past two months. She did great until ofcourse the shots, plus she was starving. I forgot her pacifier to help soothe her (not smart) so I planned her bottle for right after the shots to help her calm down... poor thing :(

Ansley now weighs 13lbs 12oz (we are still in the 50 percentile), and she is 25 3/4 inches long (we shot up to the 95% percentile from 50% at 2 months) and our head circumfrence is still in the 50%. Looks like we are going to be tall and skinny!

We got the ok to start solids so in the next couple of weeks we are going to introduce rice cereal, can't wait to see how that goes....We will definitely take lots of pictures once we begin feeding her solids.

Hope you are all doing well. We love you and miss you!

Starting out young

We had a great weekend, we got furniture for our screened in porch and got rocking chairs for the front porch. We did lots of yard work and everything looks great! It finally feels like our home. We having been enjoying the nice warm weather by taking lots of walks with Ansley, which she loves. She loves to prop her feet up on the stroller, definitely not lady-like, but she enjoys looking around at everything as we are walking.

Yesterday mommy and daddy took a break and enjoyed some Corona's on the front porch, Ansley was so amused with the bottle (too funny!). Daddy got a great shot of Ansley.... boy are we in trouble :)

Our Saving Grace

Thank you Aunt Kelly & Uncle Brent for letting us borrow Maddie's swing. It has been our saving grace when Ansley doesn't want to take a nap in her crib, which is often. She seems to associate the crib with sleeping at night only. So the swing is the only way we can get her to sleep for a long time.

I also attached the picture below, it was just too cute! Ansley was pooped this morning and had all of her toys with her (cell phone, Miss Butterfly, & you can't see her keys but they are there)

Changing everyday ...

We are finally getting settled in our new home. Ansley is amazing us everyday with new things that she can now do. She is grabbing at everything and putting it in her mouth. She has just begun sleeping through the night (8:30 to 7:30). It is nice that mommy and daddy can now get a solid nights sleep. Keep your fingers crossed that this continues :)

Here are some pictures of Miss Ansley, you can see that she is getting rounder by the minute and has changed so much. She has such a great personality and is talking all the time!

Trying so hard to get Mr. Birdie

Finally got him!

Mommy and Daddy playing around, I do not think this is funny!

Just being silly :)
