Cookie Cutters

After a recommendation from a friend, I took Annika to Cookie Cutters. I was a bit apprehensive how she'd do, but she walked in the door, marched right over to the playground and went down the slide, then picked out her chair (a pink car), and was so excited to pick Veggie Tales to watch. She loves her Veggie Tales! She was so engrossed in the movie, she barely noticed her hair being cut (with the exception of when someone was blocking her view!). Such a great experience!

She got to pick out a clip for her hair too.

I feel like she looks even more grown up now!

Mamaw messy.

I'm totally enjoying this phase of new words and new phrases. It's amazing to watch how fast she is learning right now.

My Mom and Dad caught a good one:

Alexa's 4 month checkup

Let's just say we confirmed that she's a big girl. :)

Alexa's 4 month checkup info:

Weight: 16 pounds 1 oz, 90th percentile

Length: 25 inches, 75th percentile

Head: 16 1/2 inches, 75th percentile

And she rolled over for the first time yesterday!

And because of course you want to know how Annika compared at this age, here is Annika's information at 4 months:

Weight: 14 pounds, 6 ounces- 70th percentile
Length: 24 1/4 inches- 50th percentile
Head: 40.5 centimeters- 40th percentile

"Gasses"

We got her glasses on Saturday, and so far she's been doing great- actually, way better than expected so far. She keeps them on almost all the time, and seems to really be pleased when she sees herself in the mirror (often putting her finger on them, tilting her head to the side, and saying "gasses." And that would explain why the lenses will almost always be dirty!). They need to be readjusted because they keep sliding down her nose, but I think she looks adorable.

She is, of course, saying "Chee!" here.

She looks like such a big little girl, doesn't she?
*sigh*

4 Months Old

Oh, Daddy, you are so hilarious.
(I think this is too cute.)

One of the first tries in the Exersaucer... she just hangs out and looks at everything. It definitely entertains her.

...because I know you love those cheeks too...
