- Mia weighed in at her 4 month appointment at 11lbs, 15oz, and 23.25 inches long. She is still wearing 0-3 month, or 3 month clothes. I washed some of her 3-6 month stuff, but most of it is still so big it looks silly!
- This month brought giggles, deep-down belly laughs, squeals of delight, babbling, and as of this morning, her first "da-da"
- The out of control spit up that Mia has become known for subsided this month (thank goodness). She still spits up more than Luke ever did, but it doesn't happen after every meal anymore.
- She has become a fountain - she pretty much drools all day. We go through several outfits each day due to drool and/or spit up
- Sleeping remains inconsistent. She went for one 10 hour nighttime stretch this month ... but only one. We got many 7 hour stretches, but I would have to say that in general she still wakes up every 4 or so hours. She is also a pretty light sleeper - it doesn't take much to wake her, and she can still sleep in the car, but not if we are just out and about somewhere.
- Mia hates to sit reclined. She will pull her neck and shoulders forward so that she can sit up. This is probably why she likes the Bumbo so much, and the Dr. gave us the go ahead today to use the exersaucer (good enough neck control), so we'll pull that out.
- She loves to be held facing out, and also enjoys being held in a standing position on our laps. Bottom line: she's happy when she's being held or carried.
- She is FULL of smiles. She will smile for just about anyone who glances her direction.
- She loves bath time, especially if it is with Luke.
- The pacifier is growing on her, but she still doesn't consistently take it. However, she is so oral right now - she LOVES to have her hands or the corner of a blanket in her mouth.
I took a ton of pictures of her this week, and am having trouble choosing which t o post, so here are quite a lot!
