Aubrey is 4 months!

Aubrey is 4 months old! At her four month doctor visit, she had to get a few shots and one (or maybe two?) oral vaccines. Yuck! She really doesn’t cry very often so it was so heartbreaking to hear her scream when she got her shots! She weighs 14 lbs 7 oz which is in the 64th percentile. She is still SO long. She is 26 inches – the 98th percentile!! The doctor was impressed at how strong she is! For Ben’s sake, I’m keeping my fingers crossed that she’ll be our athlete. She rolls from her back to her front and I have seen her roll the other way too but only a couple of times. She giggles (love!) and smiles all the time. Just in the last couple of days we have started stretching out her day time feedings to 3 1/2 or 4 hours and she is doing great with that. She is still sleeping at night. She sleeps through the night most of the time but will occasionally have a night where she wakes up hungry around 3am. Luckily, those aren’t too often. She had her first taste of rice cereal yesterday. I don't think she was too impressed. : ) We have switched to all formula for her. I was sad to give up nursing but it was just too difficult with me being back at work. Speaking of being back at work, things are still working out really well with the nanny, Mrs. Paulina. She is wonderful! She takes such good care of Aubrey and does lots of extras around the house that I don’t even ask her to do. She makes the beds and cleans up our breakfast dishes and has even had dinner ready for us a couple of times. She is so awesome! She usually shows up on Monday morning with some special treat she found for Aubrey over the weekend. And she made the tutu that Aubrey is wearing in the 4 month pictures below. She is such a blessing to us!
