A few milestones

  • Kinsley's first laugh was on Saturday July 17th! Philip was playing with her and she let out her first chuckle...I mean, it was a full-on, hearty laugh. And of course, I cried...it was just one of those "firsts" that you as a parent are glad you are there for. And I didn't have my camera, so instead here is a sweet pic of baby girl and her daddy...the first one to make her laugh...really, really laugh.


  • At her 4-month doctors appt, she was 12 lbs 11.2 oz...she jumped from the 3rd percentile for height and weight to the 25th percentile in both height and weight...that's starting out a 5 lb preemie...and on the "regular" growth charts!!!


  • We have officially moved on from the orange pacifiers from the hospital, to what I like to refer to as "big girl paci's" ... different product, same magical effect... :)


  • Also equally as adorable? The fact that she tends to fall asleep sucking her fingers / hand from time to time. I give you, exhibit A:


  • Kinsley also tried out some of her bouncy toys around the house for the first time this past week, and it seems like she likes them - so far!


And notice the hand in the mouth below?
This may be yet another milestone-in-the-making...I believe that we are now officially "teething"...ohhh boy.
