Those Silly Doggies!

Sutton's been noticing more and more things, reaching for and grabbing them.  On Friday, I took her to JCPenney and took her out of her stroller, and she tried to reach for hangers as I was walking around--it was pretty darn cute.  She's also gotten quite into the doggies, especially Koda.  On Sunday, we had her in her exersaucer, and every time the doggies would walk by she'd laughed and giggle.  She got hysterical a couple of times Koda walked by, so worked up that she'd get a little choked up--it was hilarious for Jack and I to witness.  Take a look at the video on dropshots!

Sutton's First Baby Food


Sutton ate her first bites of baby food on Saturday.  We tried some greenbeans, and I'm pretty sure she liked them.  Last night we fed her some more, and she even started opening her mouth and leaning towards the spoon...she's such a good girl!
She had her 4-month check-up on Wednesday, and here's the rundown:
16 lbs. 12 oz.--over the 95th percentile
25 in. long--90th percentile
And, Dr. Gomez said her motor skills were 
really good, and he imagined that 
we'd be chasing her around before long.  She's wearing some 6-9 month clothes, but she can also fit into some 3 month stuff still.  She's a pretty big girl!

Active Little Girl

Sutton rolled over from her back to her tummy last Monday, Sept. 29th, and she's been doing it ever since. For a while, she would get almost over, with her right arm stuck beneath her body, and then get start crying because she couldn't do anything. Now, though, she's rolling right over. Last night she rolled over to sleep, but Jack snuck into her room to put her back on her back.

She's laughing and giggling like a crazy lady, and she's reaching for lots of stuff with some success. She can hold onto some toys, and she really likes going to sleep holding my fingers!

Grandma and Grandpa got her a toy that scoots and shakes across the floor, and she does this weird blinking and opening and closing of her mouth when its turned on...it's kind of like she has a seizure--so disturbing!

Take a look at our dropshots page because it has been updated a lot, and Jack has loaded some pics from a long time ago.
