She is also OFFICIALLY four months old (almost five now, I'm slow with my updates!). She is 16 lbs & 13 oz & TWENTY SEVEN inches! She is my "little" behemoth! She LOVES to be balanced while she stands up & she has (FINALLY) realized that when she is on her belly she can lift her head and see what is going on. (She used to just lay there with her face buried in the bed or blanket, silly girl!) There is some speculation that she is working on getting some teeth but I "think" she is just pre-teething. The pediatrician says this is the age that most babies begin to feel their teeth but that they won't some in for a few more months still. I'm just waiting to see what happens.
She has recently decided that, in addition to waking up for a bottle at 4 a.m., she is ready for the day to begin at 6:15 a.m. I have decided that I REALLY don't like having my sleep interrupted for a bottle run & then been awakened (FOR THE DAY!!!) just over two hours later! Such is life with a baby! We still do a nap or two during the day & she goes down for the night at 7:30 pretty regularly. Now I just get to work on convincing MYSELF to go to bed before 10 p.m. so my night doesn't feel so short!
All in all she is a great baby & a MAJOR joy in our lives. I can honestly say I love being a mommy!
