Ella at 4 Months

Age:  4 months

Weight:   14 lbs 10oz (50th%) at your Drs. appointment on October 29th. 

Height:  26 inches (90th %)

Head:   40.5 cm (37th %)

Milestones: You love grabbing and sucking your soft blocks and anything else you can get your hands on.  You have giggled and squealed a couple of times, it is adorable. You are able to bear wight on you legs when we hold you upright and have you "walk" around.  You love to "walk" and bounce, we just need to get you a jump and play, so Mommy and Daddy don't have to bend over.  When you are on your tummy Mommy and Daddy put our hands by your feet and you push yourself along the carpet, face planted as you scoot along.    

Best Moment:  Hearing you giggle and squeal, excited for when you start doing it more.

Worst Moment: Finding Meeko in the crib with you while you were sleeping.

Hair: Your hair may be getting a little longer in places, but you still have some bare patches from rubbing your hair off.

Eye Color:  They are still changing color, turing a green or brown color we think.

Who you look like: Daddy

Clothes:  You are wearing 3-6 and 6-9 month clothes, however the 6-9 month clothes are a little big and long on you.  Not sure if any of your 3 month clothes still fit, since it has gotten cooler out you've been wearing the longer sleeved clothes.  

Sleeping Through the Night: Nope.  You wake up usually once or twice during the night.  Usually around 12:00 am or 4:00 am then around 6:00 am or 7:00 am.

Schedule: You go to bed any where from 7:00 pm to 8:30pm.   You wake up around  7:30 am to 9:00 am, just depends on the day and what time you went to bed the night before. You are still not a napper, Mommy can get you to take one or two naps during the day for only about a half an hour each. 

Eating:  During the day you like to eat any where from every hour and a half to every two and a half hours.  

Teeth: Not yet, thank goodness. 

Diapers: Still size 2 of Earth's Best diaper. 

Travel: We traveled to Iowa and Minnesota so we could compete in the MM Race, it was a beautiful day.  

Biggest Change:  How big you have gotten.

Extra Comments:  When you get really upset you snort, it's pretty funny. You also love sucking on your bottom lip, fingers, thumbs, fists and your blanket toy; pacifier not so much.
