4 Month Wellness Visit

Dr. Reyes says Rylee is doing perfect! She has met all of her milestones plus some. She mimics Daddy's fake cough and as progressed into this high pitched squealing/screaming cough, I gotta capture it on video. Daddy says she rolled over both ways this morning! (As I am writing this she is rolling over like CRAZY! Back and forth! I am so proud!) Breastfeeding continues to be successful for us as she is still on the high end of percentiles! 90th in height (25 3/4") and 75th in weight (14.6 lbs). I informed her doctor of her sleep habits and what we have tried and her exact words were, "Your screwed, ha ha ha". Awesome. Let the battle rage on. Doc thinks we have to break the nursing every 2 hours habit. Last night we tried Daddy and a bottle for her first wake and she slept 4 hours then 3! Also, Rylee is one tough kid.....she cried for less than a minute after 4 shots! She was amazing! The doc also ok'd us to let RC try some #1 jar foods. She tried peas the past 2 days and LOVED em! We are not supplementing BFing, just letting her try different things. Here she is hanging out while we were warming up her peas. (The second pic is from just now, rolled over to play on her tummy!)
Yummmmy Peas!


On our way to her appointment we stopped in at my OB's office to show off Rylee. Here she is with Dr. Rao and nurse Kathy. I could not possibly say enough good things about these two, they are the best! After seeing them so much throughout the pregnancy, I was actually sad on my last visit not to be making another appointment. I wonder if Rylee remembers Dr. Rao catching her after being sqeeeezed into the world, LOL.
Last week we met Aunt Nancy, Austin and Jaden at a market/festival in Mentor. As usual we LOVE spending time with them. Rides with A.N. then some kisseys from Austin. He is so good with her. He will definitly be babysitting one day.
Jaden loved the bouncy thing and Austin got a Browns helmet from the balloon guy. I wish videos transferred from my phone, because we got an awesome one of Rylee laughing at the baloon guy. We were all just standing there watching and she started CRACKING up, it was soooo funny. I'm still gonna post the video at the end. You probably can't hear it, but you can see her giggling.
Austin and Jaden played throw the ring on the can of corn. Nancy and I gave Austin a hard time for standing on the toddler line, LOL.












Over the weekend we went to scope out Spectators, the place we are having our Fantasy Football Draft this Saturday. Rylee was so good! She won a pen from this game machine!
This morning I had to buckle my little Squiggly Wiggly into her chair. She prefers it on the most upright setting. She HATES laying down "like a baby".
Giggling with Daddy. Before she saw the camera, much more giggling was going on!


Look how she brings her knees in twords the end, someone wants to crawl soon!


Last vid....giggling at the balloon guy...


Post again soon!
