Four Months

Leah turned 4 months old on December 23.

Those are some kissable cheeks!

This past week she had her 4-month checkup and vaccinations.

Weight: 12 lbs 11 oz

Height: 24 inches

Face: adorable :)

She also had her first fever. Whenever little babes are sick I have a hard time relaxing. Just ask my husband. ;)

However, she handled it pretty well and after 36 hours, she was fever free and only has an occasional cough.

Slept through gift opening, but I can't use my new backpack anyway.

Looking snazzy in my personalized owl onesie on Christmas Eve.

Precarious holding by brothers and cousin. Jordan doesn't seem real focused.

Check out my bows (on Christmas Day)

Things to know:

Call me Miss Grabby - I will pull at anything I can get my hands on.

While falling asleep, I need to be able to access a blanket or burp cloth to rub against my face.

I also prefer to sleep on my back; please don't try to hold me.

I eat when I want. Don't make me eat every 3 hours unless I request it. I will just frustrate you.

I love your face. It makes me giggle and smile and generally light up with joy.

I am sooo close to rolling over. I've got everything going the right way, except there's this one shoulder that won't cooperate ...

My hair is growing! It is fuzzy and soft and sticking straight out.

I have a lot of stories to tell. I will talk and talk and talk. I really appreciate that you listen and act interested.

I love to stare at my brothers. I think they love it too.

I am SO much bigger than my Kitty. Do you love my zebra stripes?
