4 months old already!

Ayla had her 4 month check up yesterday. She's growing up so fast! She weighs 14 lbs 2 oz, and is 25 1/4 inches long now. She is now rolling from her back to her tummy, and using her hands a lot, so she can entertain herself with toys a little bit now. I started to feed her cereal last night, and that was kind of fun. Her doctor said we didn't need to start her on cereal until she is 6 months, but I didn't feel like waiting another 2 months. We were having eating problems the last week and a half, so the doc told me to switch back to the size 1 nipples since she was chugging her bottles and spitting up like crazy right after EVERY bottle. Now she isn't spitting up anymore, so that's a relief. But she isn't eating as much at a time now, and eating more often again. : (
After Ayla's appointment we did some shopping at Target, like usual, then went to meet my friend Ashley in Stillwater. Her daughter Katia is 4 weeks younger than Ayla. She is SOOOO cute! I bought a huge inflatable easel while we were at Target. You can draw on it with sidewalk chalk and paint, then just wash it off with water, but I found that the chalk doesn't come off too easily, so we'll probably just stick with the paint.
Here I am finishing pumping it up. It's huge!
Mike is coming home tomorrow for a week, and he's going to wonder what the heck we have going on in the front yard.
