Mackenzie - 4 months

Mackenzie is now 4 months old, and growing like a weed.  At her 4 month check up she was 15 lbs 5 oz, and 25 inches long.  75 percentile for weight and 75 percentile for height.  She still far exceeds the growth of Ellie at the same age.

It seems that the reflux is all but gone, and she is doing well.  She still spits up ALL the time, it doesn't matter if she just ate or not.  It could be 2 hours since her last feeding, and out comes most of the previous one. 

We recently started putting her in the exersaucer, which she seems to really enjoy.  Gives her a different perspective on things.  The only downfall is that Ellie wants to join her in the exersaucer.  Unfortunately, I think she would still fit too.




































Mackenzie's thick head of hair is quickly falling out as she sheds the cradle cap.  I would much rather have the cradle cap go away, and have a bald headed baby, but it still makes me sad that she is losing all of her hair.

It appears as if her eyes are going to remain blue, to match her sister and her Mom.  I am very excited about that.  Ellie refers to Hazel colored eyes as "crazy" eyes, so I would prefer if Mackenzie didn't have those "crazy" eyes.
