4 Month Update

Nina is now FOUR. MONTHS. OLD. What the hell, Father Time, why are you stealing my baby?

She is almost sitting.

She LOOOOOVES food. She has had:

Avacado!

BANANA!

Carrots!

Peer pressure: sibling edition (AKA Jealousy)

Can anyone think of a D food to try next?

She rolls! Or, rather, she has the ability to roll. She has done it twice and we've yet to see it happen again. She gets about 3/4 of the way over now and just chills on her arm.

At today's 4 month appointment, she weighed 15lb 12.5oz. I seriously wonder if this is off because she weighs 16 pounds at home, and certainly feels like she weighs more. She is 24 inches tall. She got two shots and was a champ for both of them. We go back in a week for the next two. I am absolutely pro-vaccine, we just split them up by a week because I think 4 shots at once is a little excessive.

Swingin'

She smiles, laughs, coos, and will intently stare at you while you speak. She likes to chew on her weird looking teether, her bug beads, and her binky. She really doesn't like the binky except for when she's sleepy. She prefers to chew on her fingers, hands, Mommy's finger, or Daddy's knuckles.

She loves her big brother. Even when he bounces up to her, pokes her eyes, tells her she has a mouth, ears, nose, and butt and pokes and prods her various appendages, she adores him. Jack willingly gives Nina hugs now and OMG I die just a little from happiness whenever he says "I wuv oo, Een!"

She is still sleeping through the night.

I think we'll keep her, for realsies!

Edited 3/27: Nina popped her first tooth today! It's her bottom left tooth. Jack was 8.5 months old before he cut his first teeth, so I really wasn't expecting such an early teether! Yay! Nina!
