Four-month-old cutie

It's that time again! Sadie is four months old, which means it's time for another round of pictures of our favorite little girl. She had her check-up this morning and she is rather petite- 12 pounds, 9 ounces and 24.5 inches long. Quite the difference from Ethan and his sumo-chunk. The doctor said not to worry about it and we'll just keep an eye on her to make sure her weight gain doesn't suddenly drop off the charts or anything. Everything else was fine; we need to do more to exercise her neck so she's not always looking to the left, and we're supposed to start her on vitamin drops (breastmilk is low in vitamins A, C and D). The doc also said to wait a month or two on cereal, which is fine. Sadie still has a rather strong tongue thrust reflex so I don't know if she'd take it anyway. She also had to get four shots and one oral vaccine. Poor baby. Other than that she is the picture of health! Our little cutie!!

Ah, the indignities one must suffer in the Snow household...

No body part is left un-licked

This finger looks pretty tasty

Whoa, these polka dots are blowing my mind...

Sadie vs. Times Square Bear, Take Three

Notice Ethan's new buzz cut

Look at how I can sit up (sort of)

I LOVE smiling at my big brother!

Look at that cute little tuft of hair sticking up on the top of her head

My big brother loves me!

I can't believe how much she's changed in the last month! She's not a newborn any more!
I love all the pictures.
