4 Months

At Kiley's 4 month appointment, she weighed 13 pounds and was 24.5 inches tall. She is right around the 50th percentile for both. The doctor said she is very healthy.

The big news from this past month is that we are now proud owners of a Honda Odyssey minivan. We found a great deal on the van; however, it was in Texas. Kiley and I flew to Texas to pick it up and drive it back. Yes we could have had it shipped, but we were able to visit with our friends. My friend, Ansley, gave birth to her son, Myles, about 2 weeks before Kiley was born. It was a short trip but worth it.

Walking onto the airplane with Kiley, I soon realized I was one of those people who you don't want to sit next to you on the plane. Once I sat down, the man next to me asked to be moved! He said he wanted to give me more room, but I knew he thought Kiley was going to cry the whole time. It was a full flight so he couldn't move. Needless to say, Kiley did not make a peep! I was so proud of her.

The ride back in the van wasn't too bad. Kiley did well for the first 6 hours, and then she was done sitting in her seat. When I stopped to feed her, I would let her play for a few minutes before putting her back in her seat. Every day Kiley is becoming more active. It is so much fun.
