Let's see, since my last post, so much has happened. She has stopped sleeping with the vacuum....big praise since it was kind of hard to function in the house when it would be on. She started eating cereal about 2 months ago and is actually liking it now. Baby food is just around the corner and I can't tell you how excited I am to start making it! She is sleeping less and playing more. She loves laying on her play mat and playing with her feet. Matt saw he roll over from her back to tummy the other day, but I am still waiting to see it. We also discovered she is quite fond of the cartoon, Dora the Explorer. She likes to play in the exersaucer and watch it while mommy and daddy do chores around the house. I even find myself singing the theme song...something I guess I'm going to be doing for the next 5-10 years. She is growing like a weed! At her 4 month check up she was 26 1/4 inches long and weighed almost 17 pounds. So, that puts her in the 100th percentile folks. I guess it doen't surprise me though. She has been sleeping through the night for about a month now! I can't even describe the excitement around the house when that started happening. Her most recent milestone happened today. She has been acting interested in holding her bottle for about a week now, but today she grabbed it and didn't let go. I was so proud of her, but inside it made me sad to think that's one more thing she doesn't need me for. Bittersweet.
Being a mommy to K is the best thing in the world. God has such a beautiful way of showing me His love through that little girl and is blessing our little family beyond our belief. Yes, mommy hood is a huge adjustment, but it is everything I ever dreamed of and more!!!
