FOUR months!

My blue-eyed baby girl is four months old! She's a big girl too. At her most recent checkup, here were the stats:
  • 16 pounds 3 ounces (up 7 pounds from birth)
  • 26 1/4 inches (5 1/4 inches from birth)
How would you like to nearly double your weight in four months? She's so cute and pinchable though. I love it! Look at those cheeks! Those legs!

Cool things she's doing:
  • Smiling the second you start talking to her. Really, she smiles so big it's as if you just told the funniest joke ever.
  • Trying to put any and every object into her mouth. You can place something like a baby rattle she will grab it with both hands and pull it to her mouth.
  • Never, ever crying...unless she's really, really hungry or tired. Who could blame her?
  • Spitting up much less than before. I had dubbed her the "Spit Up Queen". We have been seeing some improvement in this area, which is appreciated. 
  • Being the best baby ever. Seriously, she is the BEST. BABY. EVER. I'm not just saying that either. Ask anyone who's met her.
  • Trying to roll over. She's getting very close, but can't quite make it. Check out the cute video of her attempts.
That's my girl Lyla asking all the questions. She's pretty cute too.

My blog posts have been more infrequent. I know you have probably been waiting at the edge of your seat waiting for my next one. Not. Since my return to work about 6 weeks ago, my life has become super chaotic. My day begins at 5:45 and doesn't really slow down until the big girls go to bed at 8ish. I know, cry me a river, right? Just thought you should know so you could feel sorry for me. :)

Hopefully I'll update this thingamagig more frequently than once per month. We shall see.

Peace out.
