Reese 4 month appt

Reese had her 4 month appointment on Wed. June 3rd. She weighed in at 14 pounds and 25 1/2 inches long. Dr. Farish was very pleased with her development and demeanor. She just smiled and jibber jabbered at him. She didn't even cry when she got her shots. She just kept smiling!
On the sleeping....Reese started sleeping through the night around 5 weeks and kept at it until about a month ago. Now, we are back to every 4 hours....what happened??? :-) I hope it just has to do with her cough. We can't seem to get rid of it! :-( On the bright side, Mia is doing great sleeping in her bed all night and not wetting her pull-up! Yes, she is still in a pull-up at night. She has been out of diapers since last summer, but I'm just not brave enough to give up the pull-up at night yet. My goal is to have her out of them by the end of the summer. She only wets hers about once a week, so this should be an attainable goal!

A good hair day...







As most of you know, Reese's hair is a little....unruly? Mia's was the same way. I thought Reese had a pretty good hair day on Sunday and wanted to share it with all of you! :-)
