Lila at 4 months

I'm getting behind on things. She is almost 5 months, but I need to write about her at 4 months so I don't forget! And I'm realizing that I'm not taking enough pictures of her!!

Her Stats at 4 months:
Weight: 13 pounds 12 ounces (50%)
Height: 24 1/4 Inches (41%)
Head Circum: 15 1/2 (9%) Still a cute tiny head

Lila has been such a joy!! While I was pregnant I was trying to mentally prepare myself to get through the first few months with a new baby. Reminding myself that the first months are the hardest, the lack of sleep is temporary, the constant nursing gets easier with time, and on and on. But I just can't believe how easy things have been with her, she is such an easy going and relaxed baby! She transitioned into a routine really easy, she is great at nursing, she was easy in the night, and started sleeping through the night at three months (with a little push from mom :-), she is rarely fussy, she learned to self sooth to sleep at just a few weeks old, I could lay her in her crib and she would just quietly drift off to sleep....I didn't think babies came this way! Maybe it's because Jackson was more of a challenge, and still is, the lord new I couldn't handle anything else :0). I have loved the newborn and 3 and 4 month stage so, so much!!!

Things to remember from 4 months:
-Rolled over for the first time
-had a couple of colds, and got her first ear infection...sad :-(
-grabbing and sucking on everything, especially her hands and fingers
-always wakes up happy and smiley
-sleeping through the night from 7 until 7 or 8 (with an 11:00 snooze feed)
-loves to sit up and see what's going on
-likes the excersaucer
-is tickelish and very giggly
-takes 3 naps a day
-nursing every 3 to 4 hours, and she loves it! (no bottles or formula...she won't have it! But I haven't really tried very hard either)
-Loves to watch Jackson play and gets a big smile when he gives her attention
-Very easy going and calm
-She is a great traveler!
-had LOTS of people tell me she looks like a cabbage patch doll!
