4 Month Update
Hello All.
Abby had a Dr.’s appointment today for her 4 month check-up. She had 2 shots and 1 oral immunization. She was such a trooper. She took the oral without fussing and the first shot without any problems. The second shot is the one that hurt her a bit but she only cried for about 30 seconds. She also has eczema so Dr. Ruth gave her a prescription for a cream to take care of that. The following are her growth stats:
Weight: 15 pounds 7 ounces (90%)
Height: 26 1/4 inches (97%)
Head Circumference: 42 cm (75%)
She is a healthy, happy, growing baby. She is starting to roll over from her back to her stomach. When we hold her, she likes to sit or stand up. She likes to be in her bouncer and when she is laying flat either on the floor or her changing table she now lifts her legs up and grabs her toes. She is beginning to play more with toys too. She has a little stuffed penguin that we named Gail, that she cuddles with. (There are some pictures posted of Abby and Gail) Also, if her pacifier falls out of her mouth she has learned to push it back in. She likes to play with her hands and fingers and shove them in her mouth. We just started feeding her rice cereal. She likes it okay. She doesn’t eat much since she is still learning about the texture but she is doing fine with it so far.
That’s about all the news for now.
Love, The Junes

3 Month Update
Hello Everyone.
Sorry it has been a while since we updated on the blog but we have been a little busy. Abby is 3 months old today. Time is going by but it is very exciting watching her learn and grow. She is 24 inches long and weighs 13 1/2 pounds. She is now starting to wear size 2 diapers and in 3 – 6 month size clothing. She is sick this week but she is starting to feel better. She has a bit of a cold and the beginnings of an ear infection. Dr. gave her antibiotics that she is getting twice a day.
For those of you who don’t know, I am now a stay at home mom. We are fortunate that I can be with Abby and will be able to watch her reach new milestones.
Enjoy the new pictures and videos and leave comments.
Love, The Junes
