4-month Well Child Exam



3 shots :(
Today was Presley's 4 month check-up, and we all know what that means... MORE SHOTS :( Jeremy wasn't able to come with me this time, but thats alright since last time I was the one that had to stand and comfort her while they gave her the shots.(He can't stand to see Presley hurt, like I can??? Well someone has to be the brave one!) Anyways she is doing remarkable! She now weighs 13lbs. 9oz. (49th percentile) and measured 24in. long (40th percentile) I had so many questions for her pediatrician, which by the way, we love love love her! She gave us the ok to try rice cereal whenever we would like to. And good news in my diet, I am able to try putting soy back in as long as Presley is ok with it :P
beautiful baby
Presley also has learned the fine art of rolling and thinks that she is pretty neat in doing so! Sometimes she can't get back to her back and she looks like a beached seal, hahaha! She is such an amazingly happy baby.

Kiddos

Over the weekend I had a very funny converation with my niece that is in 2nd grade. I was sitting in my in-laws van feeding Presley. Mykenzei got in the van and I was asking her about school, she then told me that I could feed Presley in her carseat. I told her that I couldnt because Presley doesnt eat from a bottle. At this point you could see the wheels turning in her head, she then said that maybe she drank from a cup. I was unsure what to say so I decided to plead the 5th and just looked at her and smiled. She then asked me if Jeremy knew how Presley ate and I told her yes. A minute later my mother-in-law came to the van and Mykenzei asked if grandma knew and I told her yes. When she got in the van she started to expain to Mykenzei that Presley ate from my boobies (hahaha) still looking confussed I decided to tell her that Presley eats like baby cows and other animals ate from their mommies. That seemed to make sense to her, she then asked if Papa knew. She said that she wasnt going to tell her mom though, when we told her that she knew as well she seemd so shocked that everyone knew how Presley ate! When we got back with the rest of the family we told her mom that she had just learned how Presley ate. Mykenzei looked at her mom and said that she should do that with Kasen. She then told us that when she has a baby she isnt going to do that, she is going to give them a bottle. A few minutes later she decides to add "thats gross anyways!" The things kids say sometimes is hilarious!
           On a side note towards the end of last week Presley learned how to make spit bubbles and has now made this her favorite pasttime, grandma was able to snap a picture of her this morning in the act. How I love this beautiful child!

Nebo Loop Ride


 The gang: Myself, Jeremy, Cary, Trish, Kelly, Gloria, & Jerry 

Sunday Jeremy and I went out for a motorcycle ride thanks to his brother Josh and girlfriend Leslie. They watched Presley for us and allowed us to use Josh's bike so that we could go on the ride with Jeremy's Parents, Aunt and Uncle, and cousin. We took the back roads for more of a scenic ride, the mountains were very pretty with all of the trees changing to the beautiful fall colors. I have to say that I am not a fan of riding on bikes though :( the seats are not too comfy and I found myself shifting around alot due to the fact that my butt was sore! We came home very exhausted since we had to battle some wind (I found myslef holding my helmet alot because it was too big to begin with and the wind was so strong that it kept shifting around) All and all it was a good time, and I enjoyed spending time with Jeremy.
