RLT is 4 Months Old!



Our little girl is four months old today!


RLT has grown in the following ways:
Weight at Birth  6 lbs. 5 oz.       Weight at 4 Months  13 lbs. 4 oz.
Height at Birth  19.75 in.           Height at 4 Months   23.5 in.


Our sweet angel is getting so big.  Seriously, this girl has been packing it away this month to the point where she has woken up at 3am almost every night for a full meal!  Maybe it's because she misses mommy during the day now that she's back at work.  Maybe it's because she gets bored of trying to get herself back to sleep.  Or maybe it's simply because the girl needed the nutrients to grow!  Whatever the reason, let's hope that she reverts back to her full nights of sleep real soon!

RLT is definitely a bundle of joy.  Her giggle is not full blown quite yet, but it definitely has a few syllables to it!  It's accompanied by those sweet blond/red eyebrows that lift has high as possible and those eyes that smile right along with her mouth.  She coos all of the time now.  She even makes those sweet sounds while half of her hand is in her mouth!  

Sweet Girl's mouth is officially the place where everything goes-hands, toys, burp cloths, you name it!  However, with that has come the drool.

She can hold her head up for a couple of minutes and will push herself up on her arms during tummy time.  RLT can sit up with assistance on our laps or in her Bumbo seat.  Facing out is still her preferred position when being held.  She wants to roll over so badly!   It's like she's doing the Twist.  She kicks her legs really hard now when she is playing or really excited.  You can hear the house rumble a little bit when she does it in her crib.  That girl is strong!

RLT started childcare this month.  While this was really hard for Mommy and Daddy, our little Bugaboo adapted quickly.  She spends the morning with Daddy getting ready, singing, and giggling.  Such a sweet a precious time of the day.  Then, it's off to church where she hangs out with Dodi and two of her little ones.  

Baby Girl's favorite new place is in her exersaucer.  Her core is getting stronger and stronger with each day.  She can't quite reach all of the different toys yet, but she sure loves being upright!

It's so neat to see how much she develops each and every month. New life is definitely a learning experience for EVERYbody involved! :)
