She will be all laughs and smiles and the minute you get a camera out and she sees it she is totally serious.
Tonight, we are going to give rice cereal for the first time. I pray she does well with it, and it fills her little belly enough to sleep! Her routine now is to eat her nighttime bottle at about 8:30, go to bed about 9:15...wake up at 1:15ish to eat again, back to sleep at 2, up at 6:00ish to eat again, back to bed around 7ish, then sleeps about 2 more hours and is up for the day. Sounds great (much better than 2 months ago) but she takes 35 minutes to eat 6 ounces, is ridiculously hard to burp (last night I rocked and patted her for 10 minutes and finally got one before I laid her back down)...bless her heart. So by the time I lay her back down, actually fall back asleep, it's like I'm being awoken from a coma to get up again! We'll get there eventually :) I don't mind getting up, honestly, but my body sure could use a solid 8 hours of sleep!!
So 4 months...such a sweet and precious time. You love morning and talk up a storm. You go to bed now with a paci and with your best friend, Miss Millie (a little lamb/blankey thing.) Your crib has a cusion thing in it to raise your head b/c you are not allowed to lay flat. You have lost a solid inch line of hair across the back of your head ;) You can go in your bouncer now with a blanket to help hold you up. You constantly have a hand in your mouth, usually your left hand so Daddy says you may be a lefty. You love going to the mall and being walked in your stroller because you are curious about EVERYTHING. You are FIESTY!! CONSTANTLY moving and busy! You still hate tummy time but already lift up and move your legs like you want to take off! You 100% recognize people and are NOT into strangers right now. You sat on my lap this Sunday and stayed awake all through church for the first time, and actually sat and watched the Pastor...then you pooped and I think the entire congregation heard it, it was hysterical. You laugh out loud and LOVE your Daddy, when he comes home you are so happy :) You are absolutely WONDERFUL :)
This was after church on Sunday, wish I still had on the adorable Gap coat that went with this outfit!
She goes in for her 4 month appointment tomorrow, pray she does well with her shots!
