You are 4 months old today. How is that even possible? 4 months already? I can't even handle it. You are acting like such a big girl now and do not want to be treated like a baby anymore. :( You don't like being cuddled to rock anymore, you would rather just lay down all alone and go to sleep. The only time I still feel like you are a little baby is when you eat. You still like for me to cuddle you during feedings. Thank goodness! You try to stand up in our laps all the time and want to be turned around to see everything. You are taking in everything you see now. You have noticed your hands and your tongue. You'll spit your pacifier out to suck on your hands or stick your tongue out and make a smacking sound.
You are trying to figure out how to reach and grab things. It's so cute watching you focus so hard on trying to get your little arms to reach out for our hands or toys. You've started wanting to hold our hands all the time. If you are fussy and restless all we have to do is hold out our hand for you to hold and you go right to sleep. When we lay you in our bed you snuggle up as close as you can get to me and as long as I'm right there you sleep so sound. You were sleeping through the night but thanks to holidays and your schedule being thrown off, you have been waking up to eat again at least once a night the past week.
You still nurse like a champ and you look like a little roly poly. Your cheeks are so chubby and so darn cute! You still don't like to burp but when you do you sound like Mama and Nanny. You burp SO loud! You have started losing a lot of your hair. Especially on the sides and in the back. You love to watch your Daddy dance all over the house and you even try to imitate some of his moves with your arms.
You are laughing out loud now and it melts us! Your little voice is the sweetest sound we've ever heard. You are producing all of the vowel sounds now and will occasionally throw in consonants /m, n, h, g/. You bat your eyes when anything gets close to you. We can probably thank Nova girl for that. She's been all in your face since we brought you home from the hospital. You love to play peek-a-boo and patty cake with Papa.
You stare the TV and our phones all the time but I still don't let you around them too much. Your rolling over on both side from your belly and your trying real hard to roll from your back but your not there yet. You still love to take baths and you pull your little legs up to your chest when we change your diaper. You are wearing size 2 diapers and are in 6-9 month clothes.
You had your first Christmas this past week and you absolutely loved it. You just stared at your presents like you knew what they were. We can't wait to watch you keep growing and become your own little person.
We love you so much,
Mama
