4 months and a day old

Time is just flying by. Miss Molly there are so many things you have learned to do in this past month

• You are constantly making noise and I love it!
• You are still grabbing for things and everything still goes straight in your mouth.
• You learned how to roll over from your belly to back a couple weeks ago (4/23/12) and have perfected it. Just last week on 5/10/12 you learned how to roll from your back to belly.
• You love to blow bubbles – it is kinda your thing now.
You are wearing 6 month clothing! wow
You are wearing size 2 diapers still but being almost 16 lbs I am guessing we will be out of those in no time.
You my little friend, are all about your feet! You want them all the time and you want them in your mouth.
• You love looking at yourself in the mirror.
• You are still such a happy baby. You are all grins all the time.
• You are so strong! You like to be held so you are “standing” up.
• You are so out of your swaddle now. As soon as we put it on you, you break out. We just keep it on your body so you can have some type of covers at night.
• Most of the time you wake up happy as a clam. You just entertain yourself by talking until we come in there.
• You have a new exersaucer toy that you play in. You haven’t quite figured it out but we can see that the wheels are turning.
• You follow everything with your eyes. If something moves around you need to see what it is doing.
• You have started your giggle and it is the most precious sound ever! You only give it to me sometimes and in small amounts. I just can’t wait for the day when you let out your little belly laugh.
• You are still all over the place at night. You set a routine for about a week and then change it up on us. One day we will figure this out and you will sleep through the night.


Here are your stats from your doctors appointment today. Dr. D said you were one healthy girl!
Height - 25.5 inches (90%). You have grown 1.5 inches since your last visit.
Weight - 15lbs 9oz (87%). You have gained 3lbs 3oz since your last visit.
Head circumference - 16.5 inches (76%). Your head grew 0.6 inches.

Molly, so many people tell me all the time that you are such a good/happy baby and that I don’t know how good I have it. I would say I have to agree and I am a little nervous at what your siblings might be like…..but luckily I don’t have to think about that anytime soon! You make me so happy and I can’t wait to get home from work everyday so I can see your sweet smile.

  1. You mentioning the possibility of a sibling is a really big deal!!! Remember when she was just a few weeks old and you thought one kiddo was going to be it??? You've made it past the craziness of a new, newborn!
