Kara's 4 Month Doctor Visit

On Friday (October 17th), Kara had her 4 month wellness visit. She woke up in the best mood that morning which only made her mama feel worse for taking her to get those awful shots. We decided to take a photo shoot of our happy baby (before heading to her doc appt) because she is so darn CUTE! As always...ENJOY!

**I apologize for some of the photos being turned weird...blogger was giving me troubles while loading the pics**


Our Precious Peanut


Can you GUESS Kara's new and all time favorite talent lately?





I told Kara that we were going "bye-bye" and happy Kara gave me a smile and it looked like she was thinking...

Hi-Ho, Hi-Ho...it's off to play time we go...

Wait...what did you say?

Oh we are going to see the doctor again...

Ummmm....wait a minute! Didn't they poke my legs with something last time?

Yes, they did and you screamed your head off that time too!

(you did much better this time around...cut your scream time down by at least half. mommy and daddy are VERY proud of you!)

Poor Sad Face. starting to get back to your normal happy self....
Next appointment at 6 months is right before Christmas...aren't we lucky?!



And what you have all been waiting for...

Kara's new stats:

Weight:
11.15 (gained 1.5 lbs) 30% in weight

Height: 24 inches (grew over an inch) 50% in height

The doctor assured us that she looked healthy and was growing on her curve. When I compared Ryan's stats at this age, he was small too. He actually only weighed 16 lbs at 6 months old. Kara seems to be only a few lbs. smaller then Ryan was. What can we say, we have petite kiddies. They seem to have their Daddy's metabolism! Lucky. :)

Kailey's appointment is next week and I'm sure she's right about where Kara is. She may be longer, but she is right around 11-12 lbs. I have nothing to compare her too, but it seems like I would rather have a smaller child than one that's really hard to lug around.

Kara's such a cutie, even after her shots.. awwww...

Hey, did you catch the end to Project Runway? Were you satisified with the results? Do you ever watch Tim Gunn's show?

Ah, Kara is SO cute!!! I think she's always going to be the kind that you can tell she's been crying though. :( I can't believe how tiny she is either! My boys were 11 pounds within the first month!

You have such a beautiful family. Enjoy and cherish them.
