4 month checkup

Addison went to see Dr. Cooper this morning. My little girl is growing like a weed! She weighed in at 14 lbs 9.5 ounces (70th percentile) and is 26.5 inches long (97th percentile - highest you can go!). They always mark her length on the table paper and then measure. I'm always in amazement when I pick her up and see the marks. I can't believe she is that long. I guess I'm used to her being all curled up in my arms. Doc said she's perfect and there is no need to give her any kind of food yet. Her measurements are right where they should be.

I may regret putting this in writing since the opposite happens as soon as I do, but Addison has slept through the night the last 3 NIGHTS!!! There's been a couple of times when I've gotten up to feed her and by the time I make it to her room she's fallen back asleep. She gets really restless when she turns over on her tummy, but once she finds the right position (and plants those fingers in her mouth) she will fall back asleep. Hopefully this will last until the teeth start coming in.

Nothing else is really new. Addison loves to talk to her mobile and the characters attached to her car seat. Michael and I love to just sit back and listen. Some of the noises really make us laugh. I love that she makes us smile everday!
