Diana 4 Month Checkup

Diana had her 4 month checkup and as soon as we walked in both the nurse and Dr. Bagamery said wow, Diana has grown. Sure enough, she is a big girl now...jumped to the 50% for both height and weight (non-adjusted, meaning she is average for all 4 month olds). I am so proud of her and very happy about the jump from 10th percentile to 50th! She is now 24 inches long and weighs 13 pounds, 5 ounces. The doctor also gave her the best compliment she gives, "Diana's development is perfect." She said her husband tells people if I ever say this to your child, that is the best thing my wife can say about your child. Again at this appointment, Dr. Bagamery spent a lot of time looking at Diana's eyes and her tracking and said she is perfectly fine and that she is no longer worried about her development. She will continue to be "behind" in some development areas but that is to be expected. Diana's newest things...she loves to smile and talk to you. So much so that she isn't eating as well during the day because she just wants to talk, but clearly she is eating enough so I don't need to worry. She also furiously tries to get her whole fist in her mouth and hasn't learned that a finger or two would be a better idea. We are all getting better about her shoes. I am learning how to put them on better and what activities she can do without kicking them off. She still wakes up every morning with them off so I am not sure what I am going to do about that yet.
