Brooklyn Update

We had Brooklyn's 4 month check-up yesterday and she is doing just fantastic! She is in the 10% for her weight-11 lbs 9 oz and she is in the 25% for her length-23 1/2 inches. She is growing so fast, but she is still so little! Tom calls her his "widdle-widdle". It sounds kinda funny, but it is so cute when he says it. The doc said we could start her on cereal and that's just what I did the minute I got home. It has been a struggle since she didn't like taking bottles, I was the only one who could feed her. So I was very anxious for her to start solids. She did pretty good and I think she liked it.

As much as I have tried, Brooklyn has absolutely refused to take a pacifier. Since the minute she was born, she loved to suck on her hands/fingers. But today she finally found her thumb. We'll see if she sticks with it....
A couple weeks ago she enjoyed her first dip in the pool. It is so hot here, the water temp is like bath water, so she was loving it!
I am completely in love with this little girl and so thankful she is a part of our family!!!!

I can't believe how small she is, Nixon was almost that long at birth and weighs more than that at only 6 weeks, lol!!
