Busy Friday & Fever Saturday

So today I went to work for a half day so I could leave early to take Elli to her 4 month check-up. I had an appt too but it had to be rescheduled. So in the morning Elli went to Grandma's and she had friends over so she didn't get a nap. Then she went to see Daddy, Grandpa and Uncle Ryan at work which is where I met up with them. My mom went with us to her Dr appt. Elli weights 16 lbs and is 26 inches long! That means she has grown 2 lbs and 1.5 inches since her last appt a little over a month ago! She is the 95% for everything. The doctor was impressed with how she can sit up by herself, how much she stands and that she may get her first tooth soon. She also got 2 shots and she did wonderful! She didn't cry at all for the first shot! For the 2nd one she cried until I picked her up and then she was fine. What a big girl! After the Dr. we went to JCPenney to get her pictures taken. It went ok, it is a hard age to get them to smile. We picked a few to buy so excited to pick those up on the 30th. :) So since Elli never got a real nap except for 30 mins in the car rides she was exhausted when we got home. She slept for about an hour and then got up and had a bottle. As soon as she was done with her bottle she fell asleep cuddling with me! This morning though she got up at 5:00am. After a small bottle she went back to sleep with us until almost 9. When we got up I noticed she was very hot and took her temp. She had a fever of 100.3! Poor baby! She is much better now, back down to 98.2 but not a very fun morning for her!But she sure enjoyed her peas later!
