Amelia is 4 Months Old

Amelia is 4 months old! Time is flying!

She is such a sweet and very precious baby girl.

* Loves to smile and laugh

* Loves to be held (facing out) and look around at all that is going on

*Loves her bumbo chair

* Loves to be outside in this beautiful weather

* Loves to eat at the same exact time mommy tries to eat :-)

She weighs 13 lbs. 5 oz. (36th percentile) and is 24 inches long (also 36th percentile)

She is in mostly size 3-6 month clothes and size 2 diapers.

She is slowly getting more little bits of light brown hair on the top of her head. I like to think that I may see an occasional curl in her hair (how fun it would be to have another curly head) but it is still a bit to early to tell.  Her eyes are a beautiful shade of blue. And that smile is the BEST!

She has moved from the bassinet to the pack n play in our bedroom.  She normally wakes up once to eat during the night and numerous times for a paci.  She takes cat naps throughout the day at home.  If out and about and in her car seat she will normally nap for longer periods of time. I guess she likes the movement and noise while driving around in the car or the loudness in the stores.  She continues to be a snacking eater, an ounce of milk here and there.  Overall I would say she eats about 6 ounces of milk every 4 hours. She still has bottles during the day and nurses during the night and first thing in the morning. She rolled from her tummy to her back for the first time again since being 2 months old, but only once -of all places while at the pediatricians office for her 4 month check up. She was apparently showing off that skill to the doctor so that it could be checked off the list of accomplishments, but still doesn't want to do it again.  Silly girl!
