Happy 4 Months Georgie!

Laughing, cooing, looking at her hands

Grabbing her very first rattle and then placing it in her mouth.

Who is that pretty baby in the mirror??

She can kick up her legs . . .

and then flip to her side!

My sweet baby girl is now 4 months - such a big girl - she has changed so much in the last month. Every day she does something different. She is growing and changing every day.

Her stats:

Height 23.5 - 20%

Weight 12 lbs 5 oz 30%

Head 40 - 25%

No, she is not sleeping thru the night. Not yet. In fact, it seems like she has regressed to newborn sleep - waking up every 3 hours. Perhaps she is still trying to establish her sleep pattern from when she was sick. Actually, the past 2 nights she has slept for 5 hour straight. Also, formula does NOT help. COntrary to what everybody says, "Just give her formula and she will sleep all night". Is not true and yes I have tried it.

BUT there are so many things that she can do and I am going to focus on that. Here are all the things that she CAN do.

She can

• from her back turn over onto her side


• reach for a rattle and grab it (just did this yesterday!)
  
• look at a mobile and reach for the objects
  
• when placed on her tummy, flip over onto her back
  
• smile, squeal, coo and laugh out loud
  
• follow me or papi with her eyes


• mantain steady head control


• kick and thrash her arms around when me or papi appear ( I love this - it is so cute!)
  

Georgina loves her swing now - and has fallen asleep in it during the day. She also loves to look at her hands - too cute.

Overall, there are so many things that she CAN do - most importantly, she makes her mommy and papi so proud of her and she makes them so very happy -
