Four months!

We had our four month check-up yesterdy and our shots :( 

She weighed 15 lbs. 6 oz. and was 24", not sure what her head was.  But she is 90-95% length and weight and 20-25% head.  I wonder if she's going to be super tall like her uncle Josh!?  We didn't see her normal dr. but saw an absolute wonderful one!  I actually almost like her more.  She said she wants her to start on cereal with a spoon morning and evening and she'll be ready for fruits and veggies by 6 months.  I can't believe she's already at that stage.  She then got fussy during her exam so I made her a bottle and she immediately put both of her hands on it, which she always does and has been doing for a couple of weeks now, and the dr. was like "wow...that's really good that she can already do that!"  She said she looks great and perfectly healthly. 

I then asked her about her new sleeping habits.  She is still waking every couple of hours and then usually wants a bottle around 1 a.m. but will then go right back to sleep.  I asked her why she may be doing this and that she used to sleep 8 hours every night but ever since she got sick she has been on this crazy schedule.  She looked at me with wide eyes and said "oh my goodness!  She's four months old, she has every right to wake up and want a bottle in the middle of the night!"  Well that solves that mystery :)  I then asked her when she can start sleeping on her tummy becuase at home I let her nap on her stomache but for bed time I still put her on her back.  She said she holds her head up so good that she doesn't see any reason why she can't sleep on her tummy...YAY!  So last night I put her on her tummy and she only woke up around 1 and then went right back to sleep.  So Korbyn and mommy got a much better night of sleep.  And I don't know if it's because she slept so much better or what but she has been in such a great mood today!  I know it's not that far into the day but it's like the old Korbyn is finally back.  Even her teachers at daycare had said that she has been a little high maintenance ever since she had that ear infection but this morning her teacher said "wow!  She is in such a great mood today!" 

The only thing she's got going on right now is her dang boogers.  She is so congested that she can't even suck on her pacifier because she absolutely can't breathe through her nose.  I've been using the drops, sucking her nose like crazy and she sleeps with a humidifier every night and she is still so congested.  Colton had awful allergies and congestion as a child and it looks as though our little turd has inherited that from her daddy as well :(
