My mood while writing this blog: Happy but tired

---

Well Caitlin went in for her 4 month shots today. She cried for a few minutes and that was that. Now she is taking her 4-6pm nap after we went and picked strawberries. She also has a bit of thrush but I basically have knocked it out of its course.. I have sterilized everything that she puts in her mouth.....blankets...clothes...spoons.....bottle nipples......etc. Thank god I have a nipple shield so I can continue to keep feeding her. :) She got a clean bill of health w/ the only exception of the little bit of thrush she has. She is now 15 lbs and 26 inches tall. So in 2 months she has gained 2 inches and 2 lbs. The doctor was happy with everything so far. Specially since we introduced her to rice cereal 2 weeks ago. So now she is getting cereal and mommy's milk (as my niece likes to call it LOL) and doing great. :) She is also to the point she is ready to sit up on her own.....she is still a little wobbly on that part but she is bound and determined and will get it in a week or so. Just wait till she is crawling....man will she be into everything. I am going to have to get her some actual play toys...that and get a toy chest. Stuff to look forward to...I can't wait but on the other side its like noooo she is growing up to fast!!!!!!! Every time I get use to a stage of hers boom she jumps right into the next one! aaaaaaaaaaa. LOL

I absolutely agree with everything you said!! Emma had her 4 month appt lst thursday and she was 14p 8oz and 24 inches long. She gets formula and oatmeal and I started her on applesauce too, she is not eating off of a spoon too well so Im gonna wait another few weeks and re-introduce it. SHe is growing like aweed and getting too big too fast :( Im glad your lil one is doing well and I hope mommy is well too!! Keep in touch

Thanks for the update Cait (??) . Sierra is right behind Caitlin. It's great to see all the babies grow and develop even though it's bittersweet. Jeni and Sierra.
