I'm 4 Months Old!
I'm Growing!
As of today at my 4 month check up, I officially weigh 13 pounds 9 ounces and am 25.5 inches long.Firsts:
Officially a pro at holding my head up and tummy time. In fact, I like tummy time so much I demand mommy put me on my tummy. She says I need to learn to roll and do that myself soon. Maybe I'll try soon...
Sleep:
Mommy officially moved me to my own room this past month. I now sleep and nap there - usually in my crib, sometimes in my bassinet. I still sleep up to 5 hours - almost 6 - for my first stretch of sleep on my good nights. Mommy said my night time sleep was improving since I started only waking up twice a night. I was napping for about 2 hours in the morning and about 2 hours in the afternoon, with a catnap in the evening, but a couple of weeks ago I started having trouble, so sometimes I only sleep 30 minutes at a time and am pretty unhappy about it too. Mommy's trying to work with me on that one. And I definitely don't like falling asleep on my own anymore.Eat:
Mommy is still doing her best to feed me whenever I want. It tends to be about every 2-4 hours. I like to eat when I wake up and sometimes I like to snack before I fall asleep.Play:
Not so much a fan of my play mat anymore, but I really like when mommy puts me on a blanket on the floor and surrounds me with toys that I can turn and reach for. I still love putting anything I can crab in my mouth. My favorite toys to play with our my butterfly toy and my "monkey bear." I really like tummy time as I already mentioned. It's also fun when mommy and daddy help me sit up and tickle me.
Likes:
My big brother. My "monkey bear." Interactive play. Being tickled. LOVE baths.
Dislikes:
Sitting still too long. Falling asleep - there are so many more fun things I could be doing!Memories:
I had my first Halloween. The family and I dressed up like characters from Jake and the Neverland Pirates (my big brother's idea). I was Cubby.
I met Santa Claus!! He was in Nashville when the whole family went to see the Dancing Christmas Lights. I loved listening to the music and seeing all of the Christmas lights - it was my first time seeing them!
