4 Months

After a nice 2 week Christmas break, we're back to our work routine. We're pretty much in bed by 10:30 most nights and up by 5am most mornings (well Leo is anyway). What a change this has been to our schedule. I'm such a night owl so this has been the biggest change for me. There are still nights where I'm wired and can't sleep so I'm up until midnight or later and then regretting it at 6 am the next morning.

K's growing really well! her cheeks are exponentially bigger.. they're out of control! when you look at her profile - all you see are cheeks, can't even see her nose. They've seriously taken over... our friends 3 yr old son looked at her the other day and said "Whoa, baby K has no neck!" we tried to show him her neck but of course her cheeks were in the way so he didn't believe us. as far as he's concerned, she's got no neck!!

K had her 4 month check up today. She's developing and growing well. here's a quick snapshot:
Height: 24 in (25-50th percentile)
Weight: 14 lbs 12 oz (75th percentile)
Head: 16.5 in

-Can grasp at things
-Can follow an item with her eyes
-Smiles at people
-Looks people in the eye
-Holds her head up very well, she loves her Bumbo and sits in it very well
-Discovering her legs (we think she'll start turning this month)
-Coos and babbles all the time
