4 Month Check Up

On Thursday, K went to her 4 month check up. She weighs 14 pounds, 14ozs. She is in the 75th percentile in weight. I think she may have gotten her baby fat from me. Grandma said when I was a baby, I was super fat and chunky.

K measured 25.5 inches in height which is the 90th percentile. Dr. Mason said her height might eventually taper off, but it would be awesome if she grew up to be taller than Daddy and I. Her head circumference is 16.25 cm which is the 50th percentile. Her head may be on the littler side since I have trouble finding her hats that fit.

Dr. Mason also said K is definitely an active baby. Check her out...we definitely have a grabber in the house.

First she reaches for the stethoscope.

Next she goes for the doc's tie. What a funny girl I have!

All in all, Dr Mason said K seems to be a pretty happy baby. We will see him again at her 6 month check up.

Back To The Grind

Today was my first day back at work.  So far, it was not as bad as how I would imagine it would be. I have an office now and our department admin packed up my stuff when I was out, so my boss told me to unpack and take it easy today! I had fun decorating my office with pictures of K. I know every day won't be such a breeze. It does sound like I will be really busy with a lot of projects coming my way.

Allen and I carpooled today, so we got to drop off and pick up K together. Lolita said K is very friendly. She is laughing a lot and is a chatterbox by trying to talk all day. It's comforting to know she is adjusting well at daycare.  I still miss her during the day, but the best part is picking her up and seeing her face light up when she sees me! I now have something to look forward to every day!

Here's a pic of us taken when she was 2 months old! This reminds me of how fast she grows up and to treasure every moment!

First Giants Game

Today, K went to her first Giant's game against the Diamondbacks. We didn't get there until the 3rd inning since K slept in until 9am after her 5am feeding and her nap schedule ended up being later. It was a lot of fun and we stayed until the top of the 9th inning. Sadly we won't be able to go to another game until next season!

Pregame photo with Daddy. Thanks for the onesie Uncle Dan & Auntie Mel!

Uncle Richard & Auntie Tammy got these adorable Giants booties which was perfect for the game!

Too bad K is not looking at the camera for our family photo!

Chilling at our seats. Her bib says it all!

It was a Star Wars theme at the game. There were Hans Solo & Chawbaccas everywhere. We happened to run across some Stormtroppers and they offered to take a pic with K.

After the game, we attended a family bbq at Auntie Diane's house with all the fixings. We celebrated cousin Ethan's 10th birthday.

This is Auntie Annie. You can't see, but she is expecting baby Ashley in October. K will have a new playmate soon! YAY!!

Doesn't Uncle Derek look like he's on his way to growing a "fear the beard" look?

On Saturday we walked around the Millbrae Art & Wine Festival and found Uncle Rob's booth for State Farm. 

Eyelashes

I couldn't help but check out K's eyelashes when she was sleeping the other day. They are getting super long and full. I can see the right side is even starting to curl a little. I wish I had long eyelashes like hers! Now we just have to work on getting a double eyelid!

First Day at Daycare

Today was the first day Daddy and I dropped K off at daycare. It was a pretty emotional/tough day. I couldn't help but shed tears. K on the other hand did well and did not cry at all. I'm glad she didn't cry or it would have made things even harder.  Lolita was really kind. She gave me a big hug and told me she knows how hard it is to leave a baby and she would be nervous herself. She told me to call her anytime through out the day to check in.

I'm happy to report K did really well! Lolita even said K was such a good girl and had a good time. She didn't cry at all and was only fussy when she tired. Even more importantly she was able to take naps. I was was little worried she wouldn't be able to since she is a light sleeper. I found out Lolita had a separate napping area for K to sleep in which was secluded from the rest of the kids and Lolita would watch her through a baby monitor when K napped.

I must admit as much as I missed K...I was happy to have some "me" time.  I haven't been away from her for more than 4 hours since the day she was born born. I pampered myself today and got a facial and pedi!

Hopefully tomorrow will be easier, but at least I survived today :)

K is thinking where am I??

4 Month Giggles

In honor of turning 4 months today, K gave us some funny giggles. Daddy was in the background making her laugh by acting like a silly monkey.

Happy 4 months

Daddy is not happy with this picture. Lifting up of dresses is not allowed.

New Discovery

K has discovered her tongue and tries to get our attention on the baby monitor when she wakes up in the morning by making the sound in this video. She tends to do this throughout the day.
