4 Months Old

Oh baby girl!! It's crazy to your Dad and me how fast you are growing!  I am a little late on this post, as you are about 4 and a half months now....  Could we please stop time because right now you are the biggest snugggle-bug EVER!!! We love it!   Here are some of our favorite things that you're doing....

 

 

 

Your are talking all the time and you love to hear that high pitch.  You have figured out that you're the one making that noise and you are so proud of yourself and again,  do it ALL THE TIME.

 

You've ALMOST rolled over from back to tummy twice.  You've rolled over from tummy to back once and haven't done it again.  You're SO close!!!

 

You often sleep on your side in the crib (truthfully, it kind of worries Mommy) but I can tell you will be a tummy sleeper when you get the whole "roll" thing down.

 

You're a ROCKSTAR SLEEPER and are now going down between 7 and 8.  Your bath totally soothes you and prepares you for bed.  You're sleeping until 5 or 6 in the morning. 

 

 

As far as food goes, you're still taking 6 ounces at each feeding.  You were spitting up a little after your bottles for a couple of weeks, but we made a few tweeks (such as sitting you up more while feeding you and making you burp no matter how mad you get when we take your bottle away), and you're doing much better.  (Thx Aunt Brandi for those tips!)


I love your smiles, you smile at anyone who smiles at you.  However, your grin is ear to ear when you see your Mommy or Daddy!!  It melts my heart!


We went to the doctor on Wednesday, and your stats were 80th percentile in weight and 50th percentile in height (which shocked us both, we could've sworn you were taller).  You received your 4 month shots and did great!  You are now in 6 months clothes.  Mama had to pack all your 3 month gear up and it made me so sad, but we are glad you're growing just like you should be!!


Every month gets more fun and we are so excited to see what the next 8 months will be like!
