Caitlin's 4 month appointment

Caitlin had her 4 month appointment today. She's still following her growth curves and weighed in today at 7.1 kilograms, so a little more than 15.5 lbs. She's a big girl!

She was fantastic for the doctor. A little crusty, but considering she was dead tired and desperate for a nap I was impressed by how well she held up.

Caitlin also got two shots today. She cried following the first needle, but after the second she settled within a couple of seconds. Just a little rub on the tummy seemed to make her feel better.

She seems to be meeting all the important milestones. The only thing she's not doing yet is laughing out loud. It's interesting, especially considering what a happy baby she is. Ben was much more serious, yet he'd laughed by this age. She does happily squeal and chatter though, so maybe we just need to try harder, or find what it is that tickles her funnybone. With Ben it was bonking myself in the head and dropping things on the floor. Who knows what will get giggles out of Caitlin, but I can hardly wait to find out!
