Today was a fun day for Miss Sarah and I. :-)
LeeLee came into town a few days ago to stay with Kamille and help out with sweet Karder. Yesterday Kamille texted me and asked if Sarah and I wanted to come to her house and take pictures with them! I was so excited! :-) LeeLee is a great photographer and its always an adventure taking pictures with babies!
After Sarah's afternoon nap we headed over there. And oh my goodness...Sarah did sooo good! I was so proud of her. She smiled and cooed the whole time! And the pictures turned out so great! I can't wait to get them printed and framed. We were even able to get one of Karder and Sarah. And it is so sweet. I know we will treasure it always!
After our picture session I went to the chiropractor to get adjusted (for the second time this week). I am trying to get my back on the mend before our trip.
Then it was time to head home and give Sarah a bottle and take a much needed nap. Poor thing was exhausted.
Then it was time to start getting dinner ready since Heath and Courtney were coming over. We had a few hiccups in the evening... Heath ended up having to spend all day at Lowes picking up lumber and it took way longer than he planned so they were running late. And then the timer went off signaling that my meatloaf was done and when I went to take it out the oven was off. LOL. So needless to say it was a pretty late dinner but we had a nice evening with them. We are so blessed to have such wonderful friends. They are just great!
This is a side note but yesterday was Sarah's 4 month well check. I just want to document this so I will remember. :-)
She weighs 14lb 9oz and is 24.5in long
We are still dealing with excessive spit up from her reflux but Dr. Dalton said since she is a happy spitter she does not feel like we need to put her on medicine. She also said reflux usually resolves around the 5 month mark so fingers crossed we won't have to deal with it much longer.
Dr. Dalton said her head is nice and round so I don't have to feel pressured to force tummy time. Sarah HATES it and I have been making myself paranoid that she is going to have a flat head. LOL. It's nice to get mommy fears resolved.
Finally, she said we can start solids whenever we feel like we are ready. :-) I am leaning towards closer to 6 months or waiting until she stops spitting up so much. But I am super excited about it so I may end up jumping the gun and just going for it. I want to do baby led weaning so I am looking into doing that instead of the purees. But again, we will see.
She had to get another set of shots and she cried. :-( But as soon as I picked her up she stopped. The nurse gave her a rattle for being such a good girl. :-)
I think that is all for now!
Have a blessed night everyone!
