--- 4 Months ---

Carolyn is now 4 months old! We continue to be amazed about how much we love this little girl. 

Here are some stats!

Weight and Height: 15 pounds (yes, I am 90th percentile for weight!) and 24.5 inches (mom and dad can't  believe that I have grown 5 whole inches since I was born)

Eating: I am feeding 5 times a day and Dr. McManus said that I should start trying out that rice cereal stuff next month.  She also told my mom it is time to get me a high chair so that I can sit with them at breakfast and lunch (I am in bed before they eat dinner) so that I can start figuring out what this whole meal thing is all about. 

Sleeping:  I go to bed between 6 and 6:30 because I just become what my parents call "grumpy-pants" and I just need to go to bed.  I love my bedtime routine because we do the four B's (bed, bottle, book, and bed) and then I get tucked in my sleep sack, then I talk to my lovie for a few minutes, and then I drift off to sleep for anywhere from 10-12 hours.  I still nap during the day but mom is trying to get me on a 9:30 and 1:00 nap schedule because that is what I will be doing when I start daycare part-time in August. 

Moving:  I am rolling over some and scooting around in my crib no big movements yet.  I do love to swing at my play-yard and Baby Einstein Activity Center and I also have started bringing lots of things to my mouth.  

Talking: I love making noises and talking. 

Sitting:  I am trying really hard to sit up on my own but just haven't built up enough muscles yet.  I also love to stand while supported.

Toys: They keep becoming more interesting! 


Flying: Doin' it for the first time tomorrow to go and see family in Arizona (pray for my parents!) 



Here are some pics of all I've been up to: 



I love to laugh! 




Hands in my mouth, hands in my mouth, I love hands in my mouth! 




So excited for my first boat ride!




Trying to protect myself from the sun! 






Hanging out with my bud! 





Snoozing in the shade
