Hannie, my sweet, at 4 months, you...
- Weigh in at 12 lbs, 14 oz, and you are 24 inches long. You fit well into some 3 month clothes still, but 6 is fitting better. You have delicous cheeks and thighs.
- Enjoy sucking you thumb and hands (and anyone else's hands, for that matter), baths on occasion, nursing, your little froggie toy and lovies, sitting in your Bumbo seat, books, being outside, car rides, being held looking outward, getting raspberries blown on your belly,being sung to, playing with your feet, and being carried around in the Ergo, warm and snuggly.
- Have become a very laid back baby girl! They first three months, you had some spurts of fussiness, but not anymore! You are a happy baby (with the exception of some evenings), and you go with the flow like a champ! You don't mind being lugged around to the park, classes for Leah, and playdates. I think you love to watch the big kids play!
-Sleep like a champ, most of the time. You go down at 7:30 each night, and tend to sleep for 10-11 hours, with some exceptions. Some mornings, we wake up and you are on your side or your belly. I think you are a mover and a shaker when you sleep! You take 2 long naps, and one little cap nap most evenings. When not in your crib, you like to crash in the car and your swing.
- Eat 5-6 times a day. When you take a bottle now, it is 5-6 ounces. You love to nurse, and I adore the snuggles that come with it. You are getting more and more aware of the world around you, though, and you like to look around and grab things while you eat.
- Have some of the most incredible eyes I have ever seen. They are bright, crystal blue- always have been- but now that you are looking around more, they are breathtaking. You seem to be so content to just observe the world around you nowadays, and love to take it all in. Your big sister is your absolute favorite thing to watch.
