Lilah: 4 Months

October 24, 2011

My Sweet Baby Girl:

You are 4 months old today! You are becoming more and more fun each and every day. And, you continue to amaze me and your Daddy with all the little things you do. We can just sit and watch you for hours.

So much has changed since the last time I wrote to you!



You are just loving school and are doing so well! Just the other day I was talking to one of your teachers and she said that you seem to really know each of the teachers now--you are all smiles in the morning when we drop you off which makes me so happy. One of your teachers shared with me that you are doing so well that sometimes she and the other teachers say to the kids, "why can't you be more like Lilah." :) Hearing this just made me so proud!!

You are now sleeping in your crib at night! This is a big accomplishment and you did so well with the transition. You started sleeping in your crib at 10 weeks and for the first few weeks you continued to sleep through the night. However, after about a couple weeks in the crib, you've gone back to waking up about once or twice a night. You wake up for a little snack and then you are right back asleep as soon as I lay you back down.

You are such a happy, little thing. You are very smiley and have really started to laugh. You have the cutest laugh. We just recently introduced you to Nick Jr. and some Baby Einstein videos and you just love it! You smile, coo, and kick your feet like crazy when you watch these shows.

Everything we give you goes straight to your mouth! You want to eat everything...blankets, toys, wash clothes, your fingers, our hands.... you name it! I even splurged and spent $25 on a small, plastic giraffe that squeaks named Sophie because I heard it was great for teething. You are not a fan! But, Dread on the other hand loves it! He thinks Sophie is one of his toys so we have to keep her on the fireplace mantel out of Dread's reach. Maybe one day you'll come around and want to chew on Sophie. The paci is still hit or miss.

You are so close to rolling over. I know you are going to roll over on your own any day now.




We love you little punkin!! Happy 4 months!
