This little chick-a-dee is now 4 months old!
A few things to note about where we are now:
I've recently dropped a feeding, so now she's eating four times a day: 7:30 a.m., 11:30 a.m., 3:30 p.m. and 7:30 p.m.
Sleeping at night is now at 12 hours straight - glorious!! She takes two 2 hour naps during the day and usually a little catnap around 5:30 p.m.
She continues to love chewing on hands...her hands, my hands, your hands - she loves eating ALL hands
Rolling lots - tummy to back, back to tummy and across the room...she now prefers being on her tummy
Still lots of smiles and now laughs! You have to catch her at the right time, but it is pure bliss when she gets the giggles. You can't help but laugh with her.
Spitting and blowing bubbles are also some new interests she's acquired. I call her my little parakeet, as she's constantly making little chirping, squealing sounds.
She LOVES to "stand." That is probably her favorite position to be in. She stands in my lap all the time and coincidentally almost all of my shirts have holes in them near the hem at the bottom. We recently got her an exersaucer and she's very content playing in there.
She's getting much better and more interested in holding toys, picking them up and, of course, putting them in her mouth
She's wearing size 6-9 months, but will probably be out of the 6 months size before we know it
At her 4 month check-up everything looked good. She weighed in at 16 lbs. 11 oz. and 26 inches long. She is still over 95% on both of those, but the doctor said instead of being WAY off the chart like she was at the beginning, she's now just a little off the chart. I guess that's a good thing. Her head measured at 16 1/4 inches, which is 50%. We plan to start rice cereal at 5 1/2 months, which I'm sure will be quite a trip.
She's developing quite the personality...
And a close up of those adorable rolls...
I think she's starting to show off a bit...
"Ta daaa!"
