Four Months
"Awwww Yeah! I did it!" (turning over on her own)
Ella turned 4 months old on July 30th. Because we have been out of town, her 4 month check up was scheduled for today. She now weighs 15 pounds and 9 ounces. She has also grown 2 inches in two months. She is in the 90th percentile in both weight and height. The pediatrician said Ella is advanced with her gross motor skills and is more like a 6 month old. She said she is very strong and will probably walk early. She mentioned it is probably due to having an older sibling to keep up with. (Have I mentioned how well K-Bugg is doing as a big sister? She loves Ella to pieces! I am so proud of her.) Anyway, Ella also got shots today, so she is fussy now. Hopefully the Tylenol will start working soon.
Milestones met this month:
* Rolling over both ways (8/1/06)
* Laughing out loud - She actually started laughing last month, but has now perfected this skill. She laughs and smiles all the time.
* Reaching and grasping for objects; passing objects from one hand to the other
* Squeals; makes "bubbles" and bubble sounds
* Bears weight on her legs
* Keeps head level when pulled to a sitting position
* Beginning solid foods

Kelly in NC had this to say:
In the same breath, I am sad and happy to see her grow. I can't believe how quickly they learn new skills at this age.
