Ellie is 4 Months!

Here Ellie is buckled up and ready to go to her 4 month wellness appointment.
Emma came with us and tried to calm Ellie down. Ellie doesn't really like Emma holding her.
Keeping Emma entertained can be an issue. We had treats and her magna doodle to occupy her time. Overall, she did well.
Ellie is now
23 3/4 inches = height 10%
11 lbs. 12 oz = weight 10%
40 1/4 = head circumference 25%
Ellie can now start her rice cereal. I have to mix it in with formula to try to fatten her up. Also, she has a hard time eating her cereal w/o milk. It has been over a week now. She likes her cereal as long as she has a bottle to wash it down with. I am still nursing her, but she also gets some formula with her cereal. So, hopefully she will not keep dropping in her percentiles.

Ellie looks so old in these pictures. She is starting to look like a little baby instead of a newborn. Love the pic of Emma holding her, nothing like a screaming baby to get the point across.

She makes my baby look like a beast. OK, I guess he is. He weighs 20 lbs and is 27in long. Your girls are so adorable!
