We went to see Dr.Carrie on Thursday for Kenzie's 4 month check-up! I was lucky enough to have Russ leave work an hour early to join us so he can finally meet Kenzie's doctor and to help me when she got her shots. Any who, she is doing great! Here are her stats:
Weight: 14lbs 6oz (56 percentile)
Height: 25.5 inches (82 percentile!!!!)
Head: 16 inches (30 percentile)
We have tried cereal a few times and she seems to like it a bit, still a little unsure, but she eats it! Our first attempt with squash was iffy, but tonight she scarfed down 3/4 of the container. Tomorrow we will try some applesauce and see how that goes!
I worked the past three days and I'm exhausted! I know there are plenty of working moms, but I'm still trying to get into the swing of things. Kenzie still doesn't have a "true" schedule. She seems to wake up more on the nights I have to work early the next day and Russ does not even budge to help me either.....so I'm up 52 times getting her pacifier,covering her up, turning on her musical seahorse, getting her a bottle.....it goes on and on and on so I barely get a wink of sleep. It feels like the beginning where I was nursing her every hour or two and falling asleep sitting up in bed....oh man! So I tough through it and run around on my feet for 6 hours making coffee for rude, demanding people! That definitely dampens my day....then I come home to take a quick shower and back to being a mom! Kenzie is my life and she is totally worth the lack of sleep and social life.....but I can't help but saying how exhausted I am! This working thing is definitely a lot harder than I expected. I miss my husband, his 2 days off I'm working, and then when I get home he wants to be with his friends. I'm frustrated and I don't know what to do.
This week and weekend I get to re-coup. My mom, dad, gramma, me and Kenzie are heading down to Cali to see some family. I am so excited to get away, even if it's just for a few days......
