4 months old















WOW. I cannot even begin to express how I feel about the 4 month mark. Briggsley is now put in a totally different category of babies. It is oh so bittersweet.







Sleep: The past 2 weeks or so you have had a bit of a slump. It seems like you have been waking a bit earlier than normal & mommy just cannot seem to figure things out. Most days you are in bed by 9 & up around 830am. You usually wake about 4or 5 am to eat then go back to sleep. Naps are still pretty good. I can put you down in your crib and play your music and you usually will go right to sleep.


Feedings: You are becoming quite the efficient little eater. And a picky one at that! You breastfeed every 3 to 3.5 hours during the day and go about twice that long at night. Lately if the milk does't get to you fast enough you pitch a bit of a fit!


Diaper Size: You are wearing size 3 sposies and your cloth diapers should be arriving tomorrow! YAY for fluffy a tush!


Development: You are trying to roll from your back to your tummy so hard everyday! It is so fun to watch! This morning I put you on your play mat in your room left for a few minutes came back and you were on your tummy! I missed it!!! You are "talking" a lot more. You are very smiley & have all the makings to laugh but we have only gotten you to really giggle a few times! You love to kick & grab things...yoiu even pulled your band-aids off of your legs after your shots today!! You love your exersaucer and your jumper!


Stats Weight/Length: 1.24.2011 Weight 15lbs 1.6oz (75%) Length: 25 1/2 (85%) Head: 15 23/4 (20%)


Clothing Size: 3-6 mostly. Carters 3 is a bit snug but the Carters 6 is still a bit big.

Hair Color: Red/Bald ;O) Yup baby girl is loosing a lot of hair


Eye Color: Still grayish/blue and Daddy says he sees the green coming through. Mommy still sees the blue


Favorite Moment this Month: Your 1st Christmas was pretty spectacular. You had no idea what was going on but mommy & Daddy loved it!! You are becoming so much more vocal & smiley & we love ever moment of it!


Other tidbits:
*Mommy & Daddy have lately been calling you puddin pop. ;O)
*You are still sort of obsessed with the watermelon song.
*You went to your 1st playgroup this month & loved taking in all the new sights!
*You drool. A LOT.
*We love seeing new parts of your personality daily!!

Cute picture! She looks like the shots are't really grumping her out too much - I think those shots are the worst :( I can't believe how quickly the time goes.....I enjoy following you - and congrats on the move! :)
