Zoe had her 4 month checkup on Wednesday and all checked out well! She was 13 pounds, 13 ounces and 24 inches. A perfect 50th percentile on both fronts. See, I knew that 10th percentile for length last time was bunk. Even the nurse we saw this time said she looked long...and they see LOTS of babies! We have been instructed to start thinking about baby-proofing the house which is a super scary thought. Hopefully we still have some time before that gets serious! The doctor also said we could start solids soon if we wanted. I think we'll at least wait until after the St. Louis trip. Don't want to deal with new things such as rice cereal (and what results from rice cereal) when out of town.
Next weekend my mom, Zoe, and I begin the trek to St. Louis. I'm a little nervous about carting a baby 14 hours East, but we're stopping at Ginzy's in KC overnight to help ease the drive. We're looking forward to seeing those of you who will be in St. Louis while we're there!
We've started a new folder of pictures on Picasa for 4 months so here's the slideshow and link to those pictures. She's getting bigger! And yes, her eyelashes are really that long. And yes, her eyes are blue and the doc seems to think they're likely to stay that way!
Claire is 13lbs too. I guess this means I have a really big baby!
