Time Flies with Grandma here

Love this one with her little knee-high socks!
Wednesday morning we had our 4 month check up at the pediatrician office - which includes vaccinations. 

Liv weighed 13lbs 7oz (?) & is in the 60th percentile (like that matters) & is 24 1/4 inches.

Dr. said everything looks good & even though we're still having a tiny bit of blood in the stool issues - she doesn't seem too concerned to switch up my diet or switch to this special formula if it was something bigger.  Her body 'tone' is excellent apparently too. 

Liv had 1 oral & 1 shot vaccination & other than a quick cry going in, she did great!! 

Afterwards we headed to the mall & looked around a bit, had lunch & then headed home. 

She was mildly fussy tonight & was up with little cries throughout the night, but I only got up at 1am for her to eat & the little cries turned back to sleep relatively quickly.  Either way, waking up hearing the little movements all night was tiring - even without getting up with her.

Thursday Grandma was motivated!  We got up & cleaned & organized all day long.  Worked hard on our room - & Liv helped out by playing & watching us. 

Playing with my toys - lots of fun! 
Went through clothes & re-organized sizes & washed more to incorporate into her current collection in the baby's room.  Grandma worked on the laundry room & closet & did lots of laundry.
I made Chicken & Rice bake for dinner & some homemade chocolate chip cookies too! :) 
Liv slept well through the night.  Hoping to get a good sleep pattern going again.  She was sleeping 10p-8am up until last week!!

Checkin' out Grandma while she sings & talks to me after a fun bath!
Friday - Liv was up at 6ish? & then we napped in my bed for awhile longer. 

We went to a kids consignment sale downtown in the afternoon, the post office, dropped off 2 bags at GoodWill & grabbed a chocolate shake on the way home.  yumm!

We had cheese ravioli & a big salad for dinner & watched 'How to lose a guy in 10 days' on TV while Liv was fussy at night. Overly tired for sure - you could tell she was just fighting it!

First night sleeping with BOTH arms out of her swaddle blanket & she slept til 5:45a - then we napped again in bed til about 8:20.


Today... we'll see! We were going to head to a neighboring touristy town, but it's been raining & a small storm - super windy so I guess we'll just hang low instead.

Hey Brinas - do they ever put you in bags to play with? This is FUN!
(Pottied on the changing table & grandma joked we should put her in this on the way to the tub so we didn't drip - it was just too fun.
No need to alert the authorities - no babies were harmed or left unattended in the making of these photos)
