Oh, what a face!

Lyla had her 4 month checkup last Wednesday and passed with flying colors. She is 24 inches long, 13.8 lbs and 75% percentile for height, weight and head size. Dr. said she looks great, healthy and happy. We also got the go ahead for rice cereal and baby foods. We tried out some rice cereal and she made several faces and pushed it back out of her mouth several times. I thought, well, maybe she would like fruit. So, I should have known better than to try a fruit that her daddy can't even stand, Peaches. She made the worst face I have ever seen and gagged on them. I felt bad for her and thought they couldn't be so bad...so I taste tested them. The final verdict is that Peaches are more tart for a baby than you would remember.Oops. We'll try those another day. Her latest hobbies are looking at books, trying to turn the pages and exploring her new Baby Einstein Activity Center. She is so excited about the activity center, she doesn't know what to look at first. It's pretty cute watching her experience cause and effect. Here are a few of her latest pictures.
