Today, Gabriella weighed an even 12 pounds (a gain of 1 lb 11 oz in the past month) and measured up to 23 inches (2 inches longer than one month ago). She is such a big girl now! She is also impressivly good at holding up her head, which now has a circumference of 15 and 7/8 inches (7/8 of an inch more than last time). It is so fun to watch our Gabriella grow.

Funny thing about the Infant Tylenol. They tease you about pediatric interns being so paranoid and clueless that they have to consult their literature before they will write an order for acetaminophen (that's Tylenol). Well, when it came time to give Gabi her Tylenol, I actually did consult my pediatric handbook to check on the dosage.
For any budding pediatricians or do-it-yourselfer parents out there, it's 10-15 mg/kg/dose every 6-8 hours for neonates or every 4-6 hours for older kiddos.
know what i just noticed from that last picture? in a few years, i bet Gabi will bear a strong resemblence to Boo from monsters inc! :-P too cute!
That has got to be the cutest little girl I have ever seen! :)
Regarding the Gabi~Boo reference:
On our most recent trip (pictures coming soon), Gabi was chatting happily with her Aunt Chrissie and Uncle Jordan and fell asleep quite suddenly in the middle of the conversation. That reminded me of the "You... go... to... sleep" scene from Monsters Inc. Uncanny.
