That’s right! Four months ago, Mike and I were BLESSED with the (fast!) arrival of Little Miss Annabelle Jane, who is such a beautiful and precious little girl.
At her 4 month check-up (last week) we learned that she was:
16 lb 6.5 oz for weight (90%) (meaning she’s just about doubled her birth weight of 8lb 11oz),
24 3/4 in for length (90%),
41 1/2 cm for head circumference (75-90%),
given a clean bill of health from the pediatrician,
…and required one emergency outfit change. Let’s just say that when she puts her mind to it, nothing can “contain” my Little Lady. It’s a good thing she has a neurotic planner for a mother who always over-prepares by packing her diaper bag full of back-up clothes and other “necessities.” 🙂
Other than pediatrician visits, Annabelle has been keeping herself busy these days by…
conversing with Teddy about politics, current events and their preferences on stuffed animals,
starring in (err…putting up with?) more photo shoots,
playing in her handy-dandy new Activity Chair,
and enjoying a visit from Aunt Ashley (a.k.a. “The Knower of All Things Baby” and/or “Mommy’s Lifeline When She’s Dazed and Confused”). Life doesn’t get much better than this! 🙂
I love that I am not neurotic alone! I still sometimes bring extra clothes for Dallin! One time at Dland, I brought 3 outfits because I felt I should. Dallin actually pooped out of 2 outfits in 4 hours! Yikes (he was 3 months old, but seriously!)! Believe me, being over-prepared is NEVER a bad thing. I can tell you that if we were ever stranded somewhere and we just had my diaper bag, the kids would be well fed and able to have their diapers changed for days. How did we get like that?
Love her little tongue in one of those photos. Crawling can’t be far behind, can it? She looks ready to take off! Maybe she is eyeing her next destination.
Oh Julie…Look at that beautiful face! She should be in the pictures!
She has such “kissable” cheeks and beautiful eyes! You a very lucky parents to have such a sweetie. We used to take an official photo of Mary each month and I would clip a “month” sign on her to mark the occasion!
You can never have enough photos or changes of outfits.
Love to all.
