- Started taking NAPS! Yea!
- She likes to hold something when she is falling asleep. I started with her little teddy bear blanket, then burp cloths, but they always end up covering her face. One day I gave her one of her baby washcloths and it was perfect! As soon as I lay her down in her crib, I hand it to her. She grabs it, sucks on it, and rubs it on her face. Then after a few minutes, she rolls over and goes to sleep. When I see she's asleep on the monitor, I go in and move it, just in case.
- She still loves to suck on her fingers and stick out her tongue.
- She smiles all the time...at home. When we are around "strangers," it takes awhile for her to warm up. She doesn't cry, she just looks very serious and looks all around.
- She has learned to reach out and grab things. It's so funny to watch, because she gets a serious look on her face and slowly reaches her hands out until she touches whatever the object is.
- She also loves to grab/touch our faces. I put my face close to hers and she reaches out and puts a hand on each cheek and just grins!
- She usually goes to bed around 8:30 and wakes up anywhere from 5-9. That's why our mornings are still a little crazy, because I never know when she'll wake up. I think when school starts, it will be more regular.
- The only time she cries is if she's overtired if we're out somewhere, or for 5-10 minutes sometimes at the beginning of naps/bedtime. Overall, she's still a very happy girl!
- She is talking and jabbering up a storm. She has so many different tones and sounds, and it is definitely entertaining to listen and watch.
We had to go this morning for her 4 month check up and shots. She now weighs 14 lbs, 9 oz, and is 24 inches long. She cried with the shots, but then fell asleep in the car on the way home. In fact, she was asleep before we even left the parking garage! This is her in her carseat when we got home. We didn't want to wake her!
Then here she is later, after lunch and longer nap.
