She is 13 lbs, 2 oz which is btw 25th and 50th percentile
24 1/4" long - 50th percentile
16 1/4" around on her head - 50th percentile
Overall the doctor said she's doing fabulous! She had her shots today also. She cried so much harder with these than she did at her 2 month. I don't know if she's just more aware of the pain, or what the deal was... but she screamed and screamed and just clung to me! It made me cry, I felt so bad. My sweet baby, it's hard when something that they need can cause pain. She got over it after about 5 good minutes of crying, which finally turned into a whimper. I put her in her carseat and gave her that bit of Tylenol and she went to sleep. She's in her crib now finishing up her nap. :) Poor baby...
We just got back Sunday (around midnight... ) from MN! I went up there with Madilyn for my cousin Marie's wedding. It was such a beautiful wedding, and I enjoyed being able to be up there to see her get married. We grew up together, and were very close. It was such a sweet ceremony too. John didn't get to come since he had used all of his vacation to be with me when Madilyn was born... so the first airplane ride was up to me... and my parents. (Luckily I was able to get on the same exact flight sitting next to them there and back!!!). My parents were an absolute blessing, I couldn't have done it without them, I packed VERY heavy! :) Madilyn had a lot of firsts while in MN. She had her first plane ride.. (no pictures though, the pilots may not have wanted to hold a poopy fussy baby... she had HAD it by the time we got off); she had her first bit of cereal (in picture below); first time in a swimming pool; and her first time at a wedding! Daddy missed these things, and was so sad, but he got TONS of pictures while we were gone.
We decided to start cereal because all of a sudden she was a little bottomless pit by the end of the night! I just couldn't fill her up. She had also been sleeping through the night, and all of a sudden she's waking up at 4am... so cereal, here we come!!!
We will probably try veggies tonight with daddy, so he can be part of that first. We'll have to take video and more pictures... I am sure there will be some funny faces! :)
Here are some fun pictures to enjoy from our trip to MN, and some of her firsts!
This is her first time in a pool in the hotel in Charlotte the night before we flew out to MN... looks like she thinks it's pretty fun huh?
This is me, Madilyn, Julie (my sister) and Preston (my nephew).
This is Madilyn's first bite of cereal... she actually ate a swallowed it! She did really well, and we didn't get too much on the bib... :)
Madilyn waiting to have her picture taken at the wedding photo place before the ceremony... she liked the umbrella's.
This is Madilyn and Emma (my friend from MN, Michelle's little girl). They are destined to be best friends like their mommies.
Preston and Madilyn... Preston thinks that Madilyn is his... he always says "my baby"... it's so cute!
Julie and I with the gorgeous bride Marie
The Sjolund side of the family (my dad's side) all together... we're just missing John :(

Papa Dave with his cute granddaughter... he looks proud doesn't he??? :)Well, that's it for now! I will try to get pictures of the veggie eating, cuz I have a feeling it might be pretty entertaining.
