The Stats are in...

Our little Miss had her 4 month well-baby appointment today. Rob came along with us since I find the shots very traumatic (they seem to be much more traumatic for me than they are for her). We split the shots up again so I (I mean she) only had to endure one today. She only cried for a couple of seconds and we were both very proud of her.

She did however, decide to poop a lot on the way to the Dr. When I took her out of her carseat she had a total blowout up the back of her onesie. Nice! I know that the Drs have seen this a million times before, but it sent me into a panic. I felt the need to have her completely clean and spotless before any nurse or Dr decided to enter the exam room. She managed to get her hands in it and we managed to get it all over the paper "sheet" that was on the exam table. It basically looked like there had been a poop explosion in the room. I swear we have never had this happen at home...of course it happens when we at the Dr. I would imagine that they can call DSS if you have a child covered in poop, right? So, thank God I remembered to bring the diaper bag (I never have it with me). Unfortunately, the only back-up onesie I had was a newborn size. We squeezed her body into that tiny onesie and on we went with the appointment.

She is healthy and happy and growing like a weed. Here are her stats since I know that you are all keeping track at home ;)

Height-25.5" 95%-ile

Weight-14.04lbs 50%-ile

Head-17" 95%-ile

She is long and lean and super cute!
Here is a pic of her joining us for breakfast in her bumbo chair. We don't normally have a framed picture of her on our kitchen table. I had just put that picture in a frame before I took the picture. Enjoy your evening!

You know that picture is there at ALL times!!! Dont lie! :) And - that cracks me up about the blow out. That is a very Callaghan thing to do!!! Maybe there are some genetic connections somewhere! :)
