4 Months!

Last friday, Andi turned 4 months old! Again, she is growing and developing so much - it's almost like we discover something new every day. She's loving her play gym, rolling over to her side to grasp and play with the dangling toys (where she is as I type - with her naked bum hanging out due to a slight diaper rash :)). She also loves to sit up (assisted or in her bumbo) as she can better observe what is going on around her. We recently found a ticklish spot on her chest, which makes her make the cutest belly laughs. She loves chewing on two or three of her fingers, or sometimes even a whole hand or both! She also discovered her tongue and loves to rub it on her gums, chewing on it, and sticking it out :)

4 month shot with Slungel.

This morning we saw Dr. Horst for her appointment. Though she cried a bit after her shots and during her physical, she did so great! Here are her stats:

Height: 24 inches (61 cm) , about the 35th percentile (up from 13th percentile).
Weight: 14 lbs 7 oz (6.55 kgs), about the 70th percentile (up from 50th percentile).
Head circumference: 41.7 cm, about the 65th percentile (up from 30th percentile)
Now prepare yourself for a picture overload :) ...

First time swimming in a real pool with mom! (she liked it just fine, but it was a pretty windy day that day (what a suprise!), so it was too chilly above the water)
Chewing on my fingers.
Helping mom sort through the mail, looking for some coupons!
Watching mom get ready in the morning from her bumbo in the bathroom.
Though I know I've already posted the slide show with Rachael's pictures (www.serendipitiphotography.com), I still wanted to show these with Andi off :)
