Four Months!



It's been a busy couple of weeks for Miss Campbell Leigh! We went up and visited Grandma and Grandpa Campbell and went swimming, which she seemed to really like.



Last Friday we went and had her four-month well check and vaccinations, which she did not really like. She was fussy for a couple of days after the shots, but she's getting back to normal now. Progress report: 13 lbs, 15.5 oz and 25" long (50th percentile for weight and 75th - 90th percentile for height).

She showed good improvement at her physical therapy appointment yesterday, so we've scaled back to every-other-week visits, as long as she continues to improve - gotta keep those stretches up at home! The doc showed us a couple of new ones we could do and we're also supposed to work more on getting her to look left while she's on her belly.

We had her assessment for the DOC band yesterday as well. We didn't feel nearly as good coming out of that - they seemed to really being giving the hard sell. Like, if you don't get the band, her ears will be misaligned so she's going to get run over when she's riding her tricycle b/c she won't hear the car coming; her eyes won't be aligned so she won't be able to see straight; her teeth will come in wrong, so she'll have problems chewing, which will lead to digestive issues. Basically if we don't get the band, we're The Worst Parents in The World. They sent the measurements off to our insurance, so the next step is to see if she's approved or not. We kind of felt like they were setting us up in case we were denied we'd feel like we didn't have a choice and would have to pay out of pocket.

Anyway, we'll deal with that when we have to. In the mean time, she's precious, and we love her more every day. How could you not love that face?

Sneak Peek - Campbell's Nursery

Well, Campbell got super jealous when she found out what cute nurseries some of her friends had. She would not stop crying until we did hers up right. Either that or she was like why are you messing with my walls?!?! I just want a bottle!!! Anyway, we eventually fed her, then took these pictures. The one thing she does love is the 'sugar and spice' wall art. (It's vinyl. I suck at painting.) It's right by her changing table and she just stares and stares and gets really excited looking at it.

I covered wooden letters with scrapbook paper, and we had the flower custom cut to match the other wall-art, and I painted it and turned it into a clock.


ZOMG lookatthegiantbaby. At least she's still cute when larger than life.



Helps with the torticollis - keeps her looking left during diaper changes.


We'll probably be out of this house by the time she can actually use this, but it's still cute...

A few more here.

And, some new pics.

She's so big...



But, still, so little...
