She's been really wiggly and escape-y lately. She's only sitting up on her own for seconds at a time but she's started flipping herself onto her stomach and making great efforts to crawl. I thought we had some time on that but no.
On Saturday night, she was sitting on my lap, just holding onto my tshirt and she actually pulled herself to a standing position to get to her crazy singing stuffed puppy thing.
Yesterday, she pushed herself onto her stomach from my lap and started furiously dragging herself toward her soft blocks. This morning she did that too, only she's learning to use her head to drag herself along. It's pretty funny. Occasionally she manages to move herself a couple of inches forward and sometimes she actually moves backward instead. When she goes backward, she gets MAD.
In other news, her 4 month checkup went swimmingly. Actually, she was 18 weeks old, so 4 1/2 months. She's 15lbs 3oz (average) and 26 1/2 inches (long). Her head was 16 1/2 inches around so it's growing but she'll still be a pea head like me. Her shots weren't so bad. She cried right after and was sort of uncomfortable later but no major screaming like the first time. She spent the weekend being a little clingy though. Good job on us (and Nana) making sure she had Tylenol BEFORE the shots this time. Nobody gave us that hint til our miserable first vaccination weekend. Now we know.

Poor baby girl. We're going to have to work on her pea head. I will teach her the ways of the Whatahead. If she can't actually grow a big head, at least she can act like it.
