Emerson - 4 Months - A Little Late
I waited until I was out of school to take the kids for their well kid check-ups, so now I am really late with a blog update! Em is growing like a weed and is the happiest, easiest-going little girl in the world. She is eating 26 ounces a day and usually takes two good naps a day. For the last two nights she has slept 11 hours uninterrupted...and mommy is hoping that that is a trend! She finishes her last bottle around 9pm and has been sleeping until 8am or so. I think she would sleep longer, but once she hear's Charlie's voice she starts talking! :) She is crazy about her big brother and he is crazy about her! She smiles all the time and really the only time she cries is if we are WAY LATE feeding her! At her check-up she weighed in at 13 lbs 10 ozs (50%) and was 26.5" long (90%)! She jumped from the 50% to the 90% in height! WOW! We had noticed that her eyes were still crossing when she brought things close to her face - something that should have corrected itself by 2 months - so we took her to see a pediatric opthamologist. At this time she is showing a slight far-sidedness, but is still within the normal range. We will go back when she is 1 and at that time they will determine if she needs GLASSES! Can you imagine glasses on a 1 year old! :P She has turned over some, but isn't consistent. She likes to sit up in her Bumbo chair, but after a while of sitting she is slumped over eating her toes! We are working on having more tummy time. She loves having a bath - and Charlie is quick to offer her up to "go first". She went swimming at Mimi and Papa's house the other day and loved it too! She enjoys the sound of her voice and gets quite loud at times. If we are in public people will look around to see who is screaming...and all I can do is smile and tell them how much she likes to "talk"! I love being at home for this stage! It is fun watching her grow and change every single day! Here are a few shots of our sweet little angel!
