The Lucy Update

Wow is she really 4 months old already! She goes to the Dr. next week but I never did update on her stats from her last appointment.

At 2mths old (3/9/10) she weighed 11lbs 7oz (70%), was 23.5 in tall (90%), and had a head circumference in the 20%.

She is such a happy baby most of the time and as of right now is sleeping in 4-6 hour spurts at night. She will go down anywhere from 6-8 and then sleep 6 hours, wake up eat and go back to sleep for another 4-6, wake up, eat, and go back to sleep for another 2-4. And although I wish she would sleep for longer stretches it's still pretty fabulous!

She can roll from her back to her tummy and does so regularly (and luckily doesn't cry so much anymore now when she is on her tummy). She can also "scoot" while on her back and ends up all over the place, never where I actually put her down. The other day I about had a heart attack when I glance down just a minute after I had put her down and she was gone! Luckily she can't go to far yet.

She loves to be talked to and will carry on a "conversation" with you. I love this age when it is so easy to bring a big full smile that lights up their entire face!Lucy loves to suck on thing. Her Binky is my first choice...but she loves fingers (yours and hers), arms, shirts and blankets. She drools like a leaky faucet and constantly has a soaked shirt.

She always looks for Jack when she is put in the car, and lights up like the sky on the 4th of July.Lucy's hair is red and so far it is sticking...we will just have to wait and see if she goes blond like Erik and his siblings did.

Lucy we love you!
