My, how she's grown!!

Several months ago, while I was still pregnant, I saw a layout in a scrapbooking magazine with photos showing how the baby had grown in a year relative to a teddy bear she received when she was born. What a great idea! I decided right away we were going to do the same thing with our baby.

Jessica has received soooo many stuffed animals, but I was instantly attracted to the cute pink Mary Kay bear she got at the hospital from Great Aunt Christine.

The first photo we took when Jess was 2 weeks old, and have since tried to take a similar picture around each month birthday. Last Friday, September 12th, Jessica was 4 months old - at her 4 month doctor's appointment she weighed in at 13lbs 11oz (50th percentile) at 25 inches (85th percentile)...long and lean (just like Mom & Dad?!). Healthy and Happy, that's all that counts!! =)

Wow! I forgot how fast they grow! It's so great to see her smaller than that bear and now bigger then him! You're right though, happy and healthy is all that matter! :D
