Kaitlyn's 4 month appointment was last Monday, and she's about to grow off of the preemie chart. Her weight was 14 lbs 3.5 oz (85%), her length was 23.5(73%) and her head was 41.9 (77%). We took her in today because of some loose stool issues, and she weighed 14 lbs 14 oz! She is growing like mad! Overall she's doing well. The issues she's having are nothing that he's worrying about, and may be due to the fact that she's been mucusy in her head. She is cleared to start solids, so we will probably start it this coming weekend.

Last week she did not have daycare, and she started doing a few new things here at home. She loves being held so that she can stand up. She has given a couple really good laughs for both Tony and I. She is lifting her head up 90 degrees when on her tummy, and is working on rolling over. She still likes to be swaddled to sleep.

A lot of people already know this, but for those that don't, my last day of working at Capitol will be July 11th. I'm going to be a stay at home mom! I'm very excited about it. I'll miss a lot of things about working (okay I'll miss the people), but it'll be great to be home with Kaitlyn.

I hope to get pictures up this weekend. We've got family coming in soon, Tony's birthday and Kaitlyn's baptism, so we're a little busy. :)

She's growing so fast and starting to get active. It's hard to believe she's ready for solids already.
