4 Months Old

Month 4 was a great month for us. She transitioned out of her "witching hours" phase and is fussing less and less. Of course, she still has her moments, but they are becoming few and far between. This months biggest milestone is laughing! She doesn't do it everyday yet, but we love this new developement! It is the cutest sound we have heard!

She is getting so strong! She has good control of her head and neck and can sit up on her own (assisted). Still hasn't rolled over yet. She is soooo close though! She can roll from side to side when she is on her back and tolerates tummy time for awhile. She can spin herself all the way around on her play mat...it is pretty funny to watch. She definitely has her dad's patience!

She was more on a schedule this month in regards to eating, sleeping, and naps. She loves to sleep in her swing during the day. Her day starts out with waking up around 8am, taking 2 long naps during the day (around 2 hours each), having more awake time in the late afternoon/evening, taking a quick nap in the evening, and then bed by around 10pm. We transitioned her from the Rock N' Play to the Pack N' Play this month and it went really well. I know we should probably move her to the crib soon, but I love her in our room!

This month she ate around 5oz every 2-4 hours. She outgrew 0-3 month clothes and size 1 diapers at 14 weeks and is currently in size 3-6 month clothes and size 2 diapers. My baby is getting so big! She is still sleeping through the night...oh what a blessing! 

Her 4 month doctor's appointment isn't until she's 4.5 months old so I will update her weight and height on my next post. She is definitely getting longer though! I am excited to see how much she has grown!
