Can you believe that our little Ellie is already 5 months old?
I cannot believe how fast the last 5 months have gone by.
She is still nursing like a champ, is eating cereal once a day and still gets up at least once, if not twice during the night.
She is full of smiles and giggles every day and we are all still head over heels in love with her!
It is hard to believe that my little Ellie is already 4 months old.
She went in for her 4 month check today and weighed in at 12lbs. 3.5ozs which is almost double her 6lb. 2oz birth weight! She is also 23.5 inches long which means she has grown an inch for each month she is old since birth.
Overall the good Dr. J. was very happy with her progress, strength and loved her smiles!
After 2 shots, some crying and lunch she is now taking the rest of the afternoon off to nap!
Ellie is officially 2 months old.
She currently weighs 8lbs. 14 oz. and is 21 1/4 inches long.
Also, she’s a pro at smiling!
Can you believe that little Miss Ellie is already 3 weeks old?
I can’t!
She went to see our family doctor, the fabulous Dr. J this past Thursday and we are proud to report she is growing like a weed. She weighed in at 6 pounds 8 ounces (that is a 12 ounce gain since her appoint the day after Christmas) and she is now measuring 20.5 inches which means she grew 2 inches since birth!
I cannot believe just how fast she is growing.
Yesterday we went to another appointment and had her weighed and she was up another 2 ounces now putting her at 6 pounds 10 ounces.
I am very proud of her and I am definitely not worried that my body is not providing for her properly because by these numbers we definitely know that it is.
It is also pretty neat to start seeing her fill out her clothes that she was drowning in a week ago.
Pretty soon we will be moving out of the newborn clothes and finally into the giant stash of 0-3 months clothing. I’m sure Ellie, being the little fashionista she is, is super excited about this. I can tell she is getting tired of wearing the same clothes over and over and over again.
We also received good news from the doctor that she doesn’t need to return until her 2 month check up since she has been doing so well at gaining weight.
Now if I could just keep her from spitting up all the time……
it’s a good thing the cuteness totally makes up for it!
