  4 Months Old
  
  ~Weight and Height~
  13lbs. 6oz.
  25 in.
  
  ~Motor and Fine Development~
  One of my favorite things to do right now is play with my toys. I love to grab them and play. I’m especially good at reaching for them with both hands, and then of course putting anything and everything in my mouth. I also like to grab anything I can get my hand on so look out!! I am starting to roll over a lot more now. I can roll from my belly to my back and from my back to my belly. I’m liking tummy time a lot more now than I used to and I love to play in my exersaucer, bouncing and kicking my legs is so much fun. Mommy also put me in a jumperoo that attaches to the door and I really like bouncing in that too. I love to look at lots of different things, especially the TV, and I love to look at books when mommy reads to me. I can support most of my weight on my legs and love to stand all the time, with mommy holding on to me of course. I like to sit and can totally support my head all by myself! I’m trying so hard to sit on my own but I usually just fall forward and it’s really funny.
  
  
  ~Food~
  I’m still getting 5 bottles a day of mommy’s milk because I absolutely hate to nurse even though mommy still tries to sneak it in all the time. I also had my first taste of rice cereal and I absolutely loved it. I was a little unsure at first and tongued some of it out but then I thought it was pretty darn good and slurped it up. I did get it all over my face and my nose, and my eye, it was so much fun.
  
  ~Sleep~
  I love to sleep!!!!! I sleep about 12 hours at night in my big girl crib all by myself!!!! If you put me down and bundle me all up and put my binkie in I usually will fall right to sleep but sometimes I wiggle my little arms out and pull my binkie out and that makes me a little mad so I cry. Then mommy or daddy comes in and rewraps me and gives me my binkie and I fall right back to sleep. Sometimes if I want to cuddle with daddy I cry really loud and he comes in and rocks me—he’s such a softy but I love him so much and love to cuddle. I still take a few catnaps throughout the day and a 2-3 hour nap in the afternoon.
  
  ~Verbal Development~
  I love to talk! I talk and coo all the time. When I get really really excited I let out a funny little scream and mommy and daddy laugh at me. I laugh when mommy tickles me under the chin or when daddy blows raspberries on my belly.
  
  ~Teeth~
  No teeth yet but I think I might be starting to teeth. I love to put everything I my mouth and try to chew on them and I drool a lot. My fingers are constantly in my mouth and my outfits are usually soaked in drool.
  
  ~Favorites~
  Mommy takes me for lots of walks in my jogging stroller and I love them and I usually fall asleep on the way back because it is so peaceful. I love when daddy hangs out with me when mommy works, it’s our special time together and we just play and lay around and I love it. I love to touch everything and put it all in my mouth. I have a playmat with lots of toys hanging from it and I love to pull on them. I’m exploring my little world and learning so much every day and I can’t wait to learn more!
