4 month letter

Dear Baby L...

We are a little late with your letter, because we wanted to wait until after your 4 month checkup! Wow 4 months, we can't believe it, and can't even remember life before you joined our family! We now know why everyone says enjoy every minute because it goes too quick, well I will admit everyone was right!!

Your stats..16#-89th percentile
25 3/4 in-92nd percentile
As you can tell, you absolutely love your food! Thankfully Dr. said you are ready to start trying the cereals and then fruits and veggies. We can't wait to see how you adapt to this new eating style! We will be in shock if you aren't in absolute heaven with this, as you can pound a bottle like nobody's business

You love putting your hands, toys, burp rags, stuffed animals, yep pretty much anything you can grasp, into that little mouth of yours. You really enjoy story time at night, sitting perfectly still for 3-5 books! Think it's time for mommy to start checking put booms at the library because we have read every book you own at least 10 times, and your book collection isn't small by any means! We also took you to story time at the library and you loved it, you enjoyed standing and bouncing, looking at the other kids and of course the songs and stories. You also love being outside, not sure if it's the fresh air or all the new things to look at, but it makes for a perfect fit to our lifestyle.

You are such a big girl sleeping In your crib at night. Sometimes you sleep 9pm-6am, which really makes mommy and daddy super happy. However, a lot of nights you decide you are a growing girl and need to eat, so you wake up once a night. Although you sleep so well in your crib at night, you enjoy giving us a run for our money during the day. I'm going to go with the fact your a wee bit spoiled, a little nosey, as you don't want to miss a thing and just growing up as to why you don't want to sleep in your crib or your playpen at grandpas!

You are now trying to sit up and you love to stand with the help of mommy and daddy of course! Also, one night you must have mimicked waving hi to daddy a dozen times. However, you haven't been interested since, good thing I caught it on tape or people would call me a liar! You coo and laugh at us all the time now, and it is absolutely precious!

Happy 4 months sweet angel!





We love you more than golf, fishing, shopping and any vacation combined!!

Love you always,
Mommy and Daddy

Today baby L had her 4 month check up, where has the time gone!?! She is growing up so fast. She topped the scales at 16#-89Th percentile and she shot up like a weed to 25 3/4in-92ND percentile! She is happy, healthy and ready for some real food... Well baby oatmeal.. Haha


Her shots weren't too fun, but she calmed down really quickly!


And the power nap on the ride home was enough for her!
