Eek!
Fiona and Emily were playing upstairs last night and Fiona rolled from her belly to her back unassisted. She only did it once but she was successful.

Long Overdue Update
This update is long overdue so I will try to include everything I can think that has happened.
The last post was right before Fiona's 4 month appointment. She got another round of the shots she got at her 2 month appointment and had no side effects (thank goodness).
4 mo stats:
height: 24 1/4 " - 50th percentile
weight: 11 lbs 13 oz - 10th percentile
head: 16" - 25-50th percentile
On January 15th, Fiona was baptized at Christ the King. She was quiet and curious and very well-mannered. She stared at Father Mark during the service and there was no crying during the baptism. Go Fiona!!!! Afterward, everyone came to the house for brunch. Kevin had cleaned out the living room and put out folding chairs so we would have enough room. I think it turned out great and everyone fit with no problem. Jessi helped me decorate Fiona's cross cake. I think I will need to experiment more with cake decorating but for now I will stick with cookies and cupcakes.

Since then we have just been settling into our routine. Fiona goes to daycare Tuesdays and Thursdays and loves all the stimulation. She still has trouble napping at daycare because there is so much going on and so many noises, but she no longer comes home exhausted so she must be catnapping. On Wednesdays and Fridays she stays home with Kevin and they have special time together. On Mondays she comes to UK to see me for a few hours with Kevin has class. I love getting to see her during the day and we get a chance to visit people at UK that want to see her too.
Fiona loves the exersaucer and even knows how to bounce in it (when she is centered and in a good mood). She is still not rolling over but I know she is getting close. She just needs to figure out how to get her bottom arm out of the way. There are several pictures in Fiona's room that we say goodnight and goodmorning to every day. She is starting to recognize the pictures and anticipates the next one. She gets excited sometimes and starts kicking her legs.

Fiona had a cold over the weekend and had a temperature of 100.3 but she is all better now. The doctor wanted us to come in just to make sure she was ok and she weighed 12 lbs 12 oz (fully clothed). I can feel that she weighs more now but it is nice to see how much she weighs. We will get her official weight and next set of stats in 2 weeks when she goes for her 6 month appointment. I cannot believe it has been almost 6 months since she was born. We also have her 6 month photo shoot that week. I will try to post to the blog with an update after all that happens.
For now, we are just enjoying our beautiful little girl and marveling in all the wonderful and amazing things she does every day.
