Who's a brave girl?  Ella Jane Steele ;)  We survived our 4 month check up and shots this morning.  Ella is doing well with regards to her weight gain and height.  She lost 5% in her height but gained 5% in her weight.  Her hair still remains at 100%.  I video tape her shots and this was the first time I heard her cry in a high pitch tone - it was so heart breaking to hear.

Head Circumference: 16 1/2 Inches (75%)

We spent the rest of the afternoon sleeping and watching Ella's temperature.  She took a nap between 12:05pm to 2:55pm and was alert the rest of the afternoon. It seems that the shots hasn't phased her in any way.  I guess we'll see tonight if it affects her sleep - she is so sleeping in our bed tonight!
