4 Months Old!





4 Months Old!!! I love the progression of these pictures from you sitting up and wondering what I'm doing, to starting to fall forward, and then me scooting you back and then you just starting at me and chewing your fists :)

You are a champion at tummy time. You get kickin' your legs and trying to pull with your arms and I know you'll be scooting in no time, and you push your upper body all the way up off the ground to where you are up past your belly button. Those are some strong and balanced arms!!

You loooooooove your hands. It is hilarious to watch you look at them with kind of crossed eyes as you twist them back and forth and then put them in your mouth. And you'll grab your hands and play with your fingers.

You are getting MUCH better in the car. Often going for a half hour or sometimes longer just looking around and playing with your blanket. It's such a relief for mommy. But sometimes you still much dislike it and scream and scream. But, at least it's only sometimes now.

You are so tiny and sweet, sweet, sweet. Talkative, but quietly. And you're a busy little girl workin' those legs and arms.

Daddy loves tickling you and playing peek-a-boo... oh, and snuggling you. Daddy gets you to sleep by laying your head on his shoulder and patting you to sleep. He probably loves it more than you do. Two daddy's girls! Lucky daddy.

But, you do ADORE your mommy. You'll be getting fussy so I swaddle you and cradle you with your binky, and you start to fall asleep but then I look down and you are staring at me with very intelligent, all-knowing eyes, and when we make eye-contact, you break into a huge grin and coo and talk to me. It's easy to see written on your face how much you love your mommy and it makes me feel like the luckiest woman alive!
