Adelyn's Fourth Month

Happy Four Months Old!! And you really are a happy girl! You smile all the time, especially at mommy! Now you giggle when mommy blows on your tummy or kisses your neck, and it makes my day. Every day you seem to get cuter and more fun to be around and play with. You are so sweet in every way. You are such a blessing from God! This month you made the big final move to Memphis, and once again did great staying right on schedule. You are going to love all the room to play with your big brother Grayson when you get a little older. Grayson wants you to play with him now and tries to give you his big boy toys, but mommy has to remind him that you're still just a little baby for now. Hope he's as willing to share when you start grabbing things! You started off this month eating between 5 and 6 oz every four hours, but now you're eating between 6 and 7 oz about every 4 1/2 hours. This is so great, because now you only eat four times a day, and that makes it so easy on mommy! You usually wake up about 8:00 every morning, then you eat between 12 - 1, 4 - 5, and then between 8 - 9 before bed. Once again, I can't even tell you how hugely thankful we are for all your good sleeping!! You have grown so much this month. We are starting to wear 3-6 and 6 month clothes, because you are already outgrowing your 3 month ones. At your doctor appointment this month you weighed 12lb, 9oz (30th percentile) and were 25 inches long (80th percentile)! You are our tall little girl! During the day you usually take about three naps, one after each feeding, with the longest one in the afternoon. You usually sleep longer than Grayson for your afternoon nap! You are easy to take places, and take trips to all of Grayson's activities, like parks, playgrounds, the zoo, and the library. We are getting much better on tummy time this month, and you rolled over for the first time yesterday! Your favorite places to be when you're not being held are on your Baby Einstein mat, in your bouncy seat, in your Bumbo, or in your bassinet. You really like trying to grab things and kick things, and you try to put everything in your mouth! You love to chew on your shirt and your burpie, and you are so drooly that we wonder if you're going to start getting teeth at four months like Grayson did!
