Dear Ella,
We took you to your four month doctor's appointment the other day. It was a very snowy day and most offices were closed but we made the trek in and were the only car on the road. You were happy and talking until the doctor came in. She wanted to check how tall you were, how much you weighed, and all of the other "health checks" to make sure you were growing and healthy. You were 14 lbs and 6 oz and 25 inches. Skinny and tall, just like your daddy!
She noted that you had a beautiful head - which I have to agree! Apparently it is very round which means you spend a lot of time on your belly or sitting up. You definitly like to sit up in mommy's lap. We spend a long time looking at magazines and books together and playing with your toys so I'm glad that your beautiful head comes from fun mommy times!
When you were being checked out by the doctor you started crying and looking at me. You wanted nothing to do with her and the doctor laughed saying that you are a mommy's girl. I'm probably to blame because I love our times together! We laugh and play and sing and dance and if that means you are a mommy's girl then good!
The night after your shots you woke up with a bad fever. Mommy and daddy were scared out of minds! You were crying and sad, but daddy gave you some medicine and you fell right back asleep. Please don't ever be sick again! It breaks me heart.
I love you very much and am so glad that you are growing and learning!
Love,
Mommy
