we got a crawler!

Well my baby girl is growing and developing way too fast for me!!!!
 
She has been so close to crawling for the last few weeks and today she surprised Mr G and I and finally crawled!!! I screamed when she started ceawling and Mr. G came running into the room all worried that something had happen to us!

It was pretty funny! So now all she wants to do is move!!! whew! It is only a half a day so far and I can see I am in TROUBLE!

Check her out!!!!!

A visitor from California!

We had the pleasure of Mr. G's cousin Casie visiting us in the good ole sticky sticks.

We had lots of fun and she got lot and lots of Miss P time, with no interruptions and all to her self! Although I couldn't get her to change any dirty diapers or anything fun like that we had a blast. We slept in, lounged by the pool, went site seeing. The second I dropped Casie off at the airport I missed her! It was so nice to have company and it was great that Casie got to know Miss P and her personality Here are some photos and videos of the week!!!

here is P splashing!

4 month check up!!

Miss P had her 4 month check up yesterday, ya I know we are a few weeks late considering she will be 5 months next Thursday! EEEK!

So at 19 weeks Miss P is:

13 lbs .5 ounces and 24 inches long!!! We are in the 30th and 40th percentile (respectively) for her age!

Here is Miss P. Smiling and being all cute for her male doctor. No lie. Until he got her shots.

Doctor says she is perfect and very much the cutie :) The nurse even asked if she could babysit or come home with me so she can keep staring at my the  "little beauty" her words not mine. But I do agree with her. We are definitely going to have to make sure our little beauty queen grows up with some humility. We don't want her to be that cute snobby girl in school :)

Anyways, enough about how cute she is.

see. cute.

Miss P's doctor is awesome. He sits and listens to my million and one questions that I have. Never once has he made me feel dumb or silly for the questions that I ask. He also shares his personal experiences of what he did with his kids, but also reenforces to me that his way is not the "only" way to do things. He also doesn't force a sleep method I should do for Miss P, like another doctor I saw. Ugh. He also reassured me that she is little and it is OK. I had been stressing about her size. She still is wearing size 1 diapers and fits in her 3 months clothes, anything 3-6 months or 6 months swallows her whole. Miss P's doctor told me again that as long as she is gaining weight, growing and seems healthy and happy there is absolutely nothing to worry about. Also he said she is teething. She will have teeth soon. Aye. Now I have to figure out how to breastfeed with teeth?! Oh man!

Next, week when P is 5 months I will talk more about all the fun things she is doing and saying with videos. :)
