Today Kennley turned 5 months old and visited her Pediatrician for her 4 month well child care appointment. She has been off a month because her Dr. went on vacation, but we are still on track getting her immunizations every 2 months. She weighs 16lbs 5oz and is 25 inches long. He said she is very healthy and to keep up exactly what we are doing with her because she looks great. It made me feel good today as a mom to hear that we are doing a good job as first time parents at keeping her happy and healthy. She was such a trooper today with her shots and only cried for a few minutes after(it broke my heart when she squeezed my fingers when they poked her)but then she started smileing at all the nurses again. She also has been cutting her first two teeth on the bottom for a couple weeks now so she has been a little more fussy than normal, so today was a really bad day for her. She is getting so big and getting cuter and cuter everyday. I love to watch her try and roll over and get mad when she can't, and listen to her blow raspberries and squeel and coo. She is growing right before my eyes and I am loveing every minute of it. We also started her on some baby food today too. She loved it.......we gave her some sweet potatoes and she ate like a champ(I think she wanted to taste something other than breastmilk and cereal for a change.) Here are a few pics from today......
Being such a big girl waiting for the Dr.
