The two months between the 2 month and 4th month appointment seemed three times that long! We were so curious to learn how she was doing, growing, etc. At long last, we had our appointment on Friday and everything was great! Madelyn is healthy, growing quickly and already quite strong. Dr. Flynn propped her up in the seated position to show us how we should start "sitting time" and he quickly realized that this wasn't new to Madelyn as she just about held herself up on her own. She put her arms right out to her sides, in the tripod position and flashed us a smile, showing us all that she had it down :) Our doctor was surprised that she already was able to hold herself up like that and told us she's ready for the more interactive toys and swings... Oops - we put together M's bouncer about 2 1/2 weeks ago because we felt she was ready, maybe we were moving a bit too fast but she loved it anyway!
We continue to notice new things everyday. Madelyn is grabbing for everything, talking quite a bit and boy does she love her brother Quigley. She just lights up when she spots him, it melts my heart! We've had a couple chuckles squeak out, they are the best sound in the world and we can't wait for some more! Madelyn is almost completely grown out of her 6 month clothes, a few pj's and zip up sweaters still fit but that's about it! It's hard to keep up with our growing girl as most of her pants are now cropped and in length, she fully fits in to all 9 month pj's! Please baby girl, slow down just a bit, you are growing up too fast!
Madelyn's 4 month #'s:
Weight - 15 lbs, 2 oz (75th - 90th percentile)
