Evelyn is 4 Months Old

On July 17, Evelyn turned 4 months old.  She is such a big girl now.  Here are her stats from her 4 month check-up:
Height: 23 inches, 10th percentile
Weight: 12.2 pounds, 25th percentile
Head Circumference: 15.2 inches 10th percentile

She is perfectly healthy and growing strong and chubby.  She's in the lower percentiles because she's our petite princess and started at only 6 lbs, but look at her strong arm and back muscles.


4 months and too cute!



On Monday it was time for her 4 month photo shoot already.  These are the behind the scenes shots that Eddie secretly took.   In this pose, she was pushing up so high with her strong arms that she rolled for the first time from belly to back.  It scared her, and she cried.

Quick costume change. 



Evelyn is also sitting (or more like slightly slumping) and playing in her high chair now when we have meals.

One night during dinner, she completely fell asleep after a hard day of playing.




We got the okay from our pediatrician to start rice cereal.  We've given it to her twice already, and she seems to like it.  It does give her really bad gas, though, so we may wait a few more weeks and try again when her digestive system is ready.




She is also starting to master her hand/eye coordination.  Now she can finally grab that kitty cat she's been eyeing for weeks! 


She can even get Mr. Bear in a headlock with her feet. 

For tummy time we got a mirror for her to look at.  She laughs and laughs at herself. 



She is also currently obsessed with her crinkle book from Aunt Gert and Chris. 



She also does pretty well sitting up in her Bumbo. 


Last weekend, she helped us clean out and organize the bedroom closet. 

Lots of Daddy's t-shirts went bye-bye to Goodwill. 


And here is one more cute photo of her and the girls from PYB.
