4 months

Elizabeth turned 4 months old on Sunday the 5th of February.  She has been such a blessing and everyday my heart just melts when I see her smile at me.  I never knew you could love someone so much!  Even though the fourth month didn't go by as fast as all the other months, when I look back, I realize that they really do grow up fast!  She has really started to develop her own personality.  A lot has happened over the last month but I will try and remember as much as I can:

She is such a happy baby.  She is very content and doesn't need to be held.  She is so observant, she loves to look around and watch everyone around her.  They tell me at daycare she is like that too.  She is not too active in the terms of always moving her arms and legs... she will just sit and look around and watch.

Just finished the size 1 diapers this week so she made it all the way through four months with size one diapers.  Now we are in Size 1 1/2 diapers!  We had gotten a lot (and I mean A LOT) of diapers before she was born so I am using what we have.  I shouldn't need to buy diapers until she is probably a year old!  

Anything and everything will go in her mouth.  If she can reach it, she will put it in her mouth.  She just started drooling quite a bit but I know this is just the start of teething...

I packed up her 3 month clothes, but she did make it to four months in three month clothes.  I am still using almost all the pants in three month because our little one is short and they still fit really good.

She is now a pro at rolling over.  Put her on the floor and she will roll over like it is nothing.  Of course she still hates to be on her belly when she gets over but she has gotten a lot better.  I think they work with her at daycare. 

For some reason, our little ray of sunshine does not like to ride in the car.  Some days are better than others, but for the most part, she does not like to be in that seat facing the back of the seat.  Mommy has listened to a lot of screaming the last couple of weeks!  Then, when I open the door, she just looks at me and smiles... I think she is telling me "ha, ha... I knew you would come rescue me!"

Here is our four month photo shoot.  (Normally I take these in the morning when she is the happiest, but I forgot the onesie and had to do it after her bath on Sunday.  That explains the lack of smiling.)

This was her telling me enough... I am going to bed...
