4 month check-up

Yesterday, Hannah had her 4 month check-up with Dr. Manzo. Hannah weighed in at 14 pounds 15 ounces and is 25 inches long. The doctor was very happy to hear that Hannah can track her parents' voices when we are talking and moving around the room. Hannah can also hold her head up, as well as roll side to side. Hannah has also found her toes! These are all achievements that need to be reached within this time frame. Dr. Manzo was extremely pleased that Hannah can roll from her stomach to her back, which is something that she needs to achieve by her 6 month check-up. So, we are ahead of schedule! Yay Hannah!

During this visit, Hannah received her 4 month shots and promised the technician that there would be no hard feelings. Hannah even gave her a smile afterwards.

Dr. Manzo told us that we could start introducing food to Hannah. We are starting with rice cereal once a day for two weeks, then bumping it up to twice a day. After that, we can start on other foods concentrating on one food a week until we figure out what she is allergic to.

Tonight we had our first attempt at rice cereal. As you can tell, Hannah was questioning what this was exactly.
After a few tries, Hannah started to get the hang of it....or maybe it was the parents started to get the hang of it...who knows!
And of course, no meal would be complete without an after dinner dessert. Hannah's dessert choice tonight...her dad's nose.
