New Stats…
When we went to the doctor today for Lily’s 4-month check-up and shots, I guessed that she weighed 16.5 pounds…
Her new stats:
Weight: 16 pounds, 7.5 ounces (96th-percentile)
Length: 26.75 inches (99th-percentile)
Head circumference: cannot remember the number, but 93rd-percentile
She is growing and growing! Next check-up is at 6 months. Doctor Wong said she is looking great! The shots went ok too… The only problem was that she fell asleep before the nurse came in. She was VERY grumpy from being awakened and even more grumpy from getting 3 pokes. Once the shots were over I was able to comfort her and put her back to sleep. She has always been groggy after getting shots… The good news is that I got a lot of work done today while baby slept (and is still sleeping!)
I also slept almost a 5-hour stretch last night, which was fantastic. Hopefully we can get baby into her own bed soon. I know we just need to bite the bullet and do it, but it is easier said than done! How can you not give-in to a baby cry???
New funny YouTube video: search for “David after dentist”. Ha! That is a funny one.
My writing, punctutation, spelling and grammar has turned sour from being out of school too long. My apologies.
Last night, I went to our friend’s – the Peterschmidts – house to learn how to make bread. Brooke (and Aaron) taught me how to make an “Almost No-Knead Bread”. Then, after they did ALL the work, they gave me a loaf to take home! Yummy. It was (and still is) great. Also, Renee is expecting her baby soon… She may be scheduling a C-Section for next week. We are ready to welcome the next Peterschmidt into the world! They don’t have a name solidified yet it seems… My advice? Let Evan (the 5 year old) pick out the first name that comes to mind! No one liked my idea.
That’s it for now!

You think she could teach my little girl how to grow?! She is 21 months and still not quite 20 pounds, and we wont get into her height. I love the pictures
