Four Months

Baby girl... seriously, how am I writing about how you are four months old (and a week late at that)!  You are getting so big so fast and doing a whole new array of things.  This last month has brought some changes as I headed back to work and you started daycare at Deanne's.  I am so happy to say you are thriving with our new routine which is so great for this tired Mama.  From the moment you are picked up until bed time, you are happy go lucky just hanging out while we cram in our nightly routine of dinner, baths, etc.  I am so thankful for your sweet little personality.

You are talking more and more and your new favorite thing... making noises with your lips (you think you're pretty funny as spit is flying everywhere).  Trying to stretch your feet all the way to your mouth is your latest challenge as you so badly want to get them in your mouth. You'd rather stand then sit and this makes me wonder if you'll want to crawl or just skip that step and go straight to walking.  You are still a rock star sleeper and lately when you take your smaller cat naps, you want to be laying on your side.  Spitting up has been more of an issue lately but when I asked the pediatrician about it at your appointment, he said as long as it doesn't bother you it's fine.  So we're keeping your reflux medicine as is.  I love hearing you laugh (and I love that you are laughing more and more).  Last weekend, your Dad was playing peek-a-boo with you and you were belly laughing.  I could have watched the two of you forever.  There is not a better sound.
