Weighing In

Madeline turned 4 months old yesterday and she had her well-care check up today. Her stats at 2 months were:
13lbs, 7oz (95%) for weight,
24in (97%) for height, and
15.24in (41%) for head circumference....

her stats now are:
15lbs, 11oz, which puts her at 89% for her age,
26 inches, which shoots her off the charts for her age,
and 16.26in, which puts her at 60% for her age...

Shes BIG!!!!

Delia's stats at 4 months are very similar. She weighed 15lbs, 7oz and measured 26 1/4 inches.
Everything went well. She's a healthy little (big) girl. They asked about vaccines and I let her know that we were still researching, which is true.....we just aren't too worried and it is low on our priority list right now. One thing I've noticed about these doctors is that they are great about letting the patient decide things and I've never once felt like they were pushing me to do anything I didn't want to do. It's nice to have a doctor like that because I'm just trying to figure out what's best for my girls and it can be scary sometimes and it definitely doesn't help when feeling pressured by a doctor who has their own idea of what's best.

So anyways.........In other GREAT AND TERRIFIC news!!!!

I am an auntie again!! My brother Josh and his beautiful wife Sarah had their first child...a little girl on Saturday morning (Sept. 27). Her name is Jana and she is adorable. She is my 3rd niece. I have 6 nephews....so the girls are slowly catching up! She weighed 6lbs, 11oz (teeny tiny compared to my little bruiser) and measured 20in. Madeline and Jana are only 4 months apart and I can't wait until they can play together.........too cute.

No time to post pictures now...........we have dentist appointments in half an hour!! I DO NOT LIKE going to the dentist....never have and probably never will! At least I don't throw up all over the dentist chair anymore, right? I'll let you all know how it goes. It will be Delia's first visit and so far she's excited. It's a good thing I have to be strong for her otherwise I'd be crying like a baby right now...... ;)

Until next time.....
