4 months


Sawyer is 4 months old, whoo hoo!! She had a pretty good month..some highs and some lows.

Highs:
-Still sleeping through the night, usually from 8 or 9ish till 6 or 7ish am
-Has laughed out loud several times ( mainly for her daddy)
-Eating great, nursing every 3 or 3 1/2 hours
-Is loving playing in her exersaucer
-Loves to roll over on her side and play with her toys
-Smiles a lot
-Sucking on her fingers, and loving sucking on mommies fingers
-Chewing on EVERYTHING she can get her hands on
-Starting to watch us eat and wanting to touch anything we have in our hands
-Has rolled all the way over several times, but prefers not to
-Starting to squeal and "talk" a lot more, especially when she wakes up in the morning, it's so cute!

Lows:
-Started taking 30-45 minute naps
-Drooling A TON
-Usually takes a few minutes to warm up to people
-Cries sometimes when strangers hold her
-Has a little temper
-Had a cold for several weeks and still has some congestion
-Still has acid reflux and is on meds for that (tried to get her off meds and didn't work)

She has had some AWESOME days this month, but she has also had some rough moments where she wants and has to be entertained ALL THE TIME, we are working on this!

Here are her stats:

Weight- 14 lbs 11.5 oz 75%
Height- 25 7/8 90%
Head circumference- 15 3/4 15%

She is doing great according to the doctor and said we can start her on solids as soon as we want. I think I will wait for us to move up to Philly, don't want her to undergo too many changes at once.

We are loving our precious girl so much, I am really excited for these next couple of months...they are going to be so sweet watching her grow and learn more about this world. Please pray for our transition up to Philly, we are in the process of getting an apartment and Clint is finishing up the details with a potiental job up there. So we will probably have a crazy busy next month. We are trusting God to provide all that we need and learning to rely only on Him, it's hard but so worth it!

Here are some sweet pictures of our big girl:










Until next time,

One happy momma

  1. so sweet!! i LOVE hitting the 4 month mark--i think seriously my favorite--though all stages have fun/sweet things about them, but there is just something to me about that 4 month mark : ) she's a doll! i can't believe we haven't got to meet her! when will you guys leave? do you want to come this way for a morning or afternoon before you leave? i wish i could say i'd come to you--but it'd be an ordeal to drag all 3 with me! we'd love to see you before you all move! message me or i'll try sending you a message soon & maybe we can figure something out : )
