Four months!

Alexandra had her four-month appointment with the pediatrician today!

Here are her stats:

length - 25 1/2 inches (90th percentile)
weight - 14lbs 14 oz (75th percentile)
head - 16 inches (50th percentile)

Christopher and I were both a bit surprised at her weight - we thought that she would be over 15 pounds. It looks like we have a very tall girl on our hands, which is not a shock for tall parents :)

Before a round of shots, we were told that she was doing "extremely well" developmentally, and she got especially high marks for her neck strength and tummy-time skills. We're continuing our breastmilk-only diet and will wait to introduce solid foods until closer to the six-month mark. She did better with the shots this go around (as did mom), and we hope she'll be happy and smiley for our family portraits tomorrow!
