The Fifth Month

This month there were many changes. Madeline started eating baby foods and has learned many new noises. We went to Lander for the 4th of July and visited tons of family. Madeline was also part of a photoshoot for organic baby clothes.

Madeline's Funny Noises

Madeline has started learning the different noises she can make and when she learns a new noise, she'll do it non-stop. Below we have her growling and buzzing her lips. So funny!

Madeline's First Food

We started out with rice cereal, but she has now had peas, carrots, squash and sweet potatos. She has been a really good eater and hasn't refused to eat anything yet.

4th of July

We went back to Lander, Wyoming for the 4th of July. We drove, which was very long and we were exhausted, but we had a blast. Madeline was able to meet her great-grandparents and many other extended family. We were also able to squeeze in a hike.

4 Month Checkup

Wow! We had the 4 month checkup yesterday and Madeline is growing like crazy! She is now 26 inches long, in the 93rd percentile for height! She is also 15 pounds, 12 ounces (74th percentile for weight). Overall she's almost 50th percentile for weight for length.

Jef says she's like a goldfish and that we need to stop putting her in bigger sizes because she grows to fill them. :-)

Madeline Rolls Over

Madeline has started rolling over when on her stomach. She will roll onto her side as well when on her back.

The 4th Month

Everything has been going great this month. Madeline graces us with a laugh from time to time and has started making a much broader array of noises. Gramie Franie came and took care of Madeline for 2 weeks while Jef and I were at work and now Madeline is in daycare. She seems to be doing really well and has big smiles for her caregiver. Madeline is now in size 6 months because she is so long. We have her 4 month checkup tomorrow and I am excited to see where she is on the charts. She definitely takes after her daddy in that department!
