Makenna @ 4 months old!

Makenna is now 4 months old. We went to her 4 month well baby visit on Thursday and she had another round of shots. I hate her getting shots, but I must say that this time was so much easier than the first time. She only cried for about 5 minutes and then she was fine. She now weighs 12 lbs and 3 ozs., and she is only 23 inches long. She is short, just like her mommy. But nonetheless, she is perfectly heathly. And growing up so fast. The pediatrician, who is absolutely wonderful, said that Makenna's love for standing up while you support her is a sign of independence. I sooo didn't want to hear that. I don't want her to show she doesn't need me. Maybe when she's 18. Ha ha ha!!

Well, she's rolling over from back to stomache now, and proud of it. Changing a diaper on her has never been this hard, she's constantly trying to roll over. But so cute when she does it. We've also started cereal this weekend, but I can tell she's going to be a picky eater, just like her mommy, because she's making horrible faces as I try to feed it to her with a spoon. So, I guess for now, we'll put it in the morning and last bottles of the day. And still try with the spoon. Maybe I'll have to try some with a flavor. Who knows. She sits in a new seat we got her called a "Bumbo" . She loves this seat. She mostly supports her self to sit up, the seat is just helping her master the skill, while making sure that she doesn't fall over. She's so adorable in it.

I hope everyone is doing great! Please feel free to leave any comments on anything I write, especially if you have any advice about feeding her solids and this cereal issue. Take care and remember to smile always and that Makenna and I love and miss you all.
