That’s right. It’s official. Millie-Moo is Amelia’s nickname.
I don’t know why. I think someone (one of my sisters) called her ‘Melia or Millie her first week and it stuck. I added the moo just because. So now at 4 months and 4 days, she’s our Millie-Moo.
Here’s her latest stats:
13.2 lbs
24 inches
“average”….which just means she’s in the 50th percentile for everything.
She’s rolling over. The first time she did it was at the beach a couple of weeks ago. She was on her tummy, popped up that head like a little turtle, and flop! She was on her back!
Prior to and since then she has been actively trying to roll from back to front, usually accomplishing it three-quarters of the way and then she gets stuck and flops back over exhausted.
Well, yesterday she finally met her goal and went all the way over from back to front and then front to back. She is now no longer a baby who stays in one place. Today she hung out at Mimi’s and rolled from one side of the room to the other, except, Deanne said, she wouldn’t roll back once she reached the wall.
Well, why should she? She’s the Millie-Moo and that’s what she can do.
