Well, technically Riley's not 4 months yet (she's exactly 3 1/2 months today). However, since we are moving soon, we wanted to make sure we got to see our pediatrician here in Tucson one more time before we left. So, here's the lowdown...
1. Riley weighs 13 lbs 12.5 oz, approximately. Riley was kicking around a bunch, and the scale kept fluctuating between 13 lb 12.5oz and 13 lb 13 oz. Either way you cut it, Riley's put on over 2 lbs in just a matter of 6 weeks, landing her once again in the 75th percentile.
2. Riley measures out at 25 1/2 inches long - a whopping 97th percentile. She's long, that's for sure. We've all about stopped using onesies with her, opting to just have her in diapers and a t-shirt.
3. Riley's head circumference is 41.5 cm, bumping her up from the 50th percentile that she was at her 2-month checkup to the 75th percentile.
4. Riley was so adorable playing with her blanket at the doctor's office. I wish we had a video camera with us. After examining her and playing with her for a little while, the doctor said that Riley is a very social and content baby. We, of course, knew this already, but it's always nice to hear a professional say it. :-)
Below is a really short video, taken when Riley was about 6 weeks old, and it's just hysterical. [You need to watch her left eyebrow ... it goes by quickly, so don't blink or you'll miss it.] We have a ton of new videos that we took this past weekend, but it's taking us a while to sort through them. Hopefully this video will tide some of you over until we can post the new ones. Enjoy!
