Here We Go Again!

Yes, I know Molly already has another blog. The sad thing is that I cannot for the life of me remember how to log into it. So here we are! I do think this one is much cuter, anyway :)

The last time I posted on the old blog was after Molly's 4 month check up at the doctor. Given that she is not over 7 months old, we have a lot to catch up on. So here we go!

First the stats:

Weight 8lbs, 3.5oz at birth (2/14)
7lbs, 15oz at discharge (2/16)
8lbs at first doctor's appt (2/18)
9lbs, 1oz at 2 week appt (2/28)
10lbs, 9oz at 1 month appt (3/14)
13lbs, 2oz at 2 month appt (4/11)
17lbs, 8 oz at 4 month appt (6/16)
20lbs, 11 oz at 6 month appt (8/12)

Height

20 1/4 inches at birth/discharge
20 7/8 inches at first doctor's appt
21 5/8 inches at 2 week appt
22 1/2 inches at 1 month appt
24 inches at 2 month appt
26 1/8 inches at 4 month appt

28 1/8inches at 6 month appt



We have been to the doctor since that check up because Molly had a cough and cold that would not go away and at her last check up she weighed in at 21lbs, 6 oz. Given her growth, we updated her to a convertible car seat this past week. Here she is looking all grown up:



In other news, she has some new grown up tricks. She has mastered crawling and pulling herself up to standing. She can pull up on almost anything at this point. The sofa, the crib, the entertainment center, you name it and she can use it as a tool for leverage. Last week she was playing in her Pack and Play while I cleaned up a bit and this is how we found her:



She is certainly growing up. It is hard to believe she is more than halfway to a year old!

And for your pleasure, here are some of our favorite 7 month photos, taken just last week.
