She enjoyed the playground near our school all decked out in her fuzzy hat, made by Grandma Livingston, and her sunglasses--that fit her much better now than they did when she was 5 days old.

Zoey explored new worlds today--she looked at leaves and liked the way they crinkled inbetween her fingers. It is fun to remember that EVERYTHING is new to her.

Zoey rested up for her night with Auntie Tammy and Grandma Livingston. I LOVE it when she falls asleep on me. This is what being a mom is all about.

Zoey seemed to enjoy having new people to play with on Friday night.

Zoey starts eating Rice Cereal!

Since Zoey has been prone to spitting up since birth, she has been on Added Rice Startch formula for quite sometime now. The doctor gave the go ahead for rice cereal and I just couldn't wait to get started. I love each stage that Zoey has been in and each one becomes my new favorite.

It took a little bit of work--but she started to really figure it out.

Daddy takes his turn at feeding Zoey.

Already holding her own spoon :-)

Zoey seemed pretty happy after her feeding. I think she liked it.

Zoey's 4 Month Appointment

Zoey had a very good 4 month appointment today. Dr. Norquist was very impressed with how Zoey can sit-up, roll over, stand supported on a lap, and has two little teeth. She is further ahead of most kids her age as far as the milestones of babyhood, but we have always been worried about her weight.

Well, I guess we should stop worrying now.

Here're some stats:

Head 17" which is in the 94%
Weight 15lbs, 1oz in the 79%
Heights 25.5" in the 88%


Zoey also received four immunizations today. DTAP, HIB/HBV, IPV, and Pneumococcal. Though she cried while the needle stuck her, she was smiling at the nurse before we left.

All in all, it was a very good visit.
