Month 4!!!

 Wow babygirl, you're 4 months old already!!! Where has time gone?

Look back over the last 4 months to see your growth...

Everyday with you has been so amazing, and I absolutely love watching you grow older and mature in the little areas of life. You continue to impress me with how much you desire to learn and just your ability to take in new things. 

We got to take both of your grandparents (Grammy and Granddaddy) out for their birthdays and then you were reunited with your cousin Lucy and Aunt Jess who were off in London.

You've been so amazing with attending 2 weddings in the last 2 weekends (Josh & Marissa as well as Kristen & Dustin's) and you did great! Here are some pics below of you hanging at your Aunt Kristen's bridal shower.

You had your first Thanksgiving, and did amazing through your first musical at Toby's Dinner Theater (Miracle of 34th Street) and you made it all the way through until the last 10 minutes (after 4 hours of being amazing!!! Way to go baby girl!

I can't believe that as of tomorrow, I've been home for 1 month with you already! It's been the greatest month spending my days with you! My sweet girl, I love watching you grow! Here are some of your highlights through your last month of life:

-your eyes seem to be turning brown, and you've grown so much of your hair back in

-you always want to hold up your head all of the time, and it's quite impressive

-you love when I hold you like an airplane and give me the biggest smiles

-you love for daddy and I to hold your forearms and help you sit up

-since accomplishing rolling on your side, you absolutely love to be on your sides now just holding those little toes of yours

-you love to be on your tummy (you used to fuss the whole time, now your a pro, especially holding up your head)

-you're able to hold your bottle now, although you sometimes let go, but you get a good grip and hold on tight

-you've rolled over once already from your belly to back

-you've finally found your feet, and now I usually find them in your mouth

-you LOVE pulling your socks off.. But it takes you some work to do it

-you keep giggle a lot more now and my goodness it's worth working for those giggles!

-you love to stare at yourself in the mirror

-you smile at anyone and everything

-you seem to make everyone smile back at you

-your very alert and great at focusing on things 

-you've learned how to grab things that are in front of you

-you smile after you sneeze

-you smile soooo big when I kiss on your neck- so adorable!

-you're a drooling fanatic, since you're teething a bit early

-you've really begun to start grunting

-you really love to be swaddled when you go to sleep, which I know will be tough soon as we have to try and transition you out

-you've really learned to hold your pacifier in your mouth and it's impressive to not see you spit it out every other minute

-your mouth seems to be a fun spot for you to store things, such as feet, socks, toys, and your whole HAND of course (silly girl)
