Four Months of Fun!

Riley is four months old. I keep waffling between "I can't believe she's ALREADY 4 months old" and "I can't believe she's ONLY 4 months old". She had her well-check today and did great. Her current stats are:

Length: 25 3/4" (90-95 %ile)

Weight: 15 lbs. 6 oz. (75-90%ile)

Head: 16 3/4" (75-90%ile)

Riley is getting stronger day by day. She sits up in her bumbo or on the lap of a "human chair" for a long period of time. She laughs and babbles. She screeches if she's really, really hungry. She rolls on her side (usually left) as soon as we put her in her crib. She usually goes to bed between 8-9 pm and wakes up at 5:00ish for a bottle. She drinks 6 oz. at most of her feedings. When the milk isn't enough, she eats her entire hand. She loves her toes and grabs for them every chance she gets. We have lots of names for Riley. The most common are: Ry, Riley Roo, and Ry Ry. She responds to all of them. :)

Riley is doing well with her torticollis, too. She's scheduled for one more physical therapy appointment for the beginning of December. If she continues to make progress, we'll be done with those visits for good. We've got a couple more months to decide whether or not we'll have her fitted with a cranio cap to reshape the flat spot on her head. We've see some improvements in the last month, so hopefully it won't be necessary. If we decide to go that route, she'd only need to wear it for 2-3 months... such a small amount of time in the grand scheme of things.

Luke continues to LOVE Riley. He'd do anything for her. He makes goofy faces and sings and dances which always evokes a big gummy grin from Riley. If she cries, he gets teary and begs her to stop. We're so proud of what a good big brother he's becoming.
