4 Months Old, Already!


Today is Kate's 4 Month Birthday. We are going for her 4 month check-up tomorrow. I am guessing she will now be 75 percentile on weight and 50 percentile on height. Don thinks like 60 percentile on weight. We'll see!

Kate, you are so sweet these days. You love when mommy or daddy talks to you. You listen very intently and then you give this real gummy smile. Sometimes one side of your mouth goes up first and sometimes the other side never decides to join. You love to watch Petey run around in front of you playing fetch while you sit in your bouncey seat next to the television. You love your carseat and sleep in it for hours and hours at a time (which mommy appreciates when she runs errands). You have been holding your head up fairly well since 3 months old but truly have it mastered now. Today your mommy saw you ball up and start leaning to your left side. It won't be long before you are rolling all over the place. You LOVE your baths. Your mommy is thinking she will have to start incorporating some toys very soon. You are sleeping through the nights now. You just started this about a week ago. Everyone is getting 8 hours of sleep. Thank you.

Here is a picture of my baby girl and me when she was 9 days old...



My how the time is flying by! It won't be like this for long...

Aww--sweet post! Kate will appreciate these when she's older. You are spoiled--she sleeps thru the night and thru errands. Rotten, I tell ya! I can't believe how alert she is, and how big she is. Was she really a preemie? Can't tell now.
