4 months already....

Ryleigh had her 4 month well baby visit this week- I can't believe how fast it is going! She is a healthy and happy little lady, and the doctor said she is beautiful and looks great- we of course knew that :)
She now weighs: 15 1/2 lbs. - which puts her in the 90th percentile for weight, she is 24 1/4 inches long - 75th percentile for height and her head is measuring in the 75th percentile too!
Ryleigh is working on sitting up and her awesome Bumbo seat is helping. She enjoys sitting up and watching her brother play and run around! She is a very social baby and is happy and content as long as someone is paying attention to her or she is part of the the action. She also loves to give big toothless smiles to her adoring fans and giggles when something strikes her fancy!!!

This is also a typical sight with Miss Ryleigh- everything goes in the mouth! She will take a bink, but still prefers her fingers or thumb. And she has started taking her bink out by herself and staring at it, and then trying to put it back- she has yet to successfully get it back in though :) She is also very interested in her toys (especially the ones that rattle) and will send a lot of time holding them, studying them and trying to stuff them in her mouth!

These two are so cute together! Aiden loves his little sister and although he is all boy and very rowdy- he tries very hard to be soft and gentle with "his baby" as he calls her. He likes to show her his toys and has informed me that Ryleigh likes dinosaurs, dragons and cars- but then who wouldn't?!?!

They are just so cute, and she looks so big sitting in that bumbo, that matches really well with her outfit I must say :)
