Technically, Kyle turned four months on March 11. However, I wanted to wait until her check-up today so we could all know her stats. Kyle is 27 1/4 inches tall, which is greater than the 98 percentile. She is actually the height of an average 8 month old. For now, I think we can say she is not following Richards' genes in heights. Her head circumference, which could be either a Richards or Watson feature, is 17 1/2, again in the greater than 98 percentile. She is now a chunky 16 pounds 15 ounces, which is in the 95 percentile. As for shots, Kyle took them like a champ and barely made a peep. She even smiled at the nurse afterwards. This is one jolly baby!
This past month, Kyle has changed extensively. This month she has started talking up a storm, having conversations with anyone and everything. Each morning as we head to day care, she is the back seat just chatting away. She laughed for the first time and will giggle any time her beloved dog, Ace, is near. Kyle is a super happy baby so this her many chuckles and moments of excitement have been such a pleasure for us. She is so close to rolling over but can't quite seem to get there. I suspect by next month she will have conquered that. Kyle took the big initiative and began sleeping in her own crib, adjusting like a champ. She learned to splash in the tub and absolutely loves it, especially when her mommy encourages it. She grasps onto just about everything including your hair and likes to give a mighty tug. She continues with large gummy grins and flirts up the personality with anyone. Kyle loves being outside and now constantly is watching everything in sight. Walks in her stroller have taken on a whole new thrill. In the mornings, she loves to snuggle between her parents, constantly looking from one to the other with big smiles. Then once we finally gets up, she settles down for a nice rest.
Travis and I could not be more blessed. We truly love this little lady and everything she has brought into our life.
