17 Weeks!


MONTH: 5
WEEK: 17
WEIGHT: 13lbs 14.5oz
LENGTH: 26 2/3 inches
HEAD: 16 inches
MILESTONES: No significant milestones this week, but she is growing so fast!
OBLIGATORY ADORABLE PICTURE: 17 weeks in daddy's chair. She's really starting to fill it in!
EATING: A got the okay to start solids whenever we feel she is ready!
SLEEPING: She is sleeping great. Last week she slept 4 nights in her swing because she was very stuffy and it helped her breathe to be semi-upright. Now we are back to sleeping in the bassinet and everyone is more comfortable. 
VISITS/OUTINGS: Avery had her 4 month appointment today. She is growing so fast. She is on track to be tall and skinny just like her daddy. (And cousins, Kayla and Maddie.)
FAVORITE ACTIVITIES: Sleeping, playing with her toys and listening to mommy read her books!
MOMMY FEELS: like there aren't enough hours in the day. I work all day and come home and I just want to play with Avery, but there are things to be done. Le sigh. 
WHAT WE'RE LOOKING FORWARD TO: Even though the doctor gave us the go-ahead I am still not sure Avery is ready to start solids -- BUT I am looking forward to when she is ready and we can experiment. Until then, I am looking forward to getting our first Christmas tree together and making our stockings!
