5 months old!

5 months old today!! You are trying your best to sit up and tool back to front. You are chewing on everything in site. You ate rice cereal (with apple juice) for the first time 6/26/13. You love to kick Max when he's laying beside you, pull his jaws and let him give you kisses. You aren't sleeping very good at night anymore. You take very short naps during the day now. Mommy misses her sleep. :) Daddy is still the one who makes you laugh the most. 

4 month check up!

This little cutie had her 4 month check up on Thursday! What a tiny little girl we have. 

Weight: 11 pounds 12 ounces

(I know newborns who are this size already!!) She is in the 2nd percentile. 

Length: 23.75 inches long

18th percentile

Head size: 15.75 inches

30th percentile. 

Clothes: 0-3 months in most everything. There are a few 3 month outfits you can wear. You have long legs and a tiny little waist which makes finding pants for you difficult. 

Diaper: You are still in a size 1. But I think you will be moving up in the next month. 

Food: You drink a 4oz bottle of formula every 3 1/2-4 hours. We've tried to give you rice cereal but you hated the spoon. So in an effort to get you to sleep longer at night we've been sneaking it into your bottle! :)

Sleep: You are now sleeping in your crib on your little belly at night. You wake a few times a night. You once slept all the way thru the night. I miss those nights! You nap 2 hours after you eat for about an hour each time. 

Teeth: No teeth yet but you are chewing on everything and drooling like a monster. I'm sure it won't be long. 

You love to smile! You love love love your daddy. Whenever you see him you light up like a Christmas tree. Heart melting!! You babble a lot. You are grabbing more thing with your little hands and kick up a storm with those chubby legs. You love to stand. You hate to be put down. You hate when I am in the room and not holding you (I kinda like that). You are growing and changing faster than we imagined you would. We are so blessed by you my little bird! 

XoXo, 

Mommy

4 months?! Get out.

This blue eyed baby girl is now 4 months old! 

Where oh where has the time gone?

We have our 4 month check up next week. I'm curious to see how much she weighs. I think we are ready to start baby food or cereal. I also think we are getting close to moving up in diapers. This makes me so so sad. My little bird is growing up!! 

Memorial Day Weekend 2013

Supporting our Cardinals!

Sunrise! Bootcamp at 6am is worth it for this view. 

Friday night date with some cuties.

Cousin Ethan turned 8. Swim party! 

Splish Splash! 

Mommy & Avery hanging out on a Saturday afternoon. 

Someone needs a Sunday afternoon nap. All snuggled up to Jesus Bear in momma and dada's bed. 

We took our first hike today! Pinnacle Mountain. Avery loved it. Poor Max was just ready for some water. 

Look at that tongue! And baby toes. :)

Quick nap before heading back down. 

Gods beautiful handy work. It was exhausting to climb but so worth it for the view. 

All tuckered out from a fun day. 

Sitting in our bumbo watching daddy grill up some yummy food!

What a great and memorable Memorial Day. :-)
