New Measurements

We went Thursday for the one month check up (hard to believe she's already one month!). But all is well with Lilly Rose - she's growing like 'gangbusters' according to the doctor. She was 8 lbs 13 oz at the week check up and she's now 10 lbs 11 oz - which puts her in the 90th percentile for weight. She was also 21 1/3 inches and is now 22 1/4 inches, which puts her in the 75th-90th percentile. She's holding her head up, starting to coo, and getting used to her car seat carrier. We've taken her to temple, the library, cupcake shop and out to lunch with a friend (more on that in the next post). She's also at the beach now (two posts from now - I know, I am behind!) and did so well in the car! We were both amazed. But her face has started to fill out and she's starting to sweat, when she gets really angry and crying you can see droplets on her nose. Every now and then you can see a tear. And she's got a little rash on her face - the doctor told us the name, some medical, scary sounding name, but its really harmless, she said - which looks a bit like baby acne. We go back for two month check up on the 20th of September - at which she will get her first round of shots, it's actually one shot but with five vaccines. Not looking forward to that one!
