4 Months!

Our little piece of heaven is 4 months old today!!

Time sure is flying with our girl.

Rebecca is a precious, precious baby but far from 'chill.'  Her awake time consists of eating, having two second tummy time that results her in her rolling over, being held by mommy (her favorite), sucking on Sophie, or 'complaining' about some unknown reason.  She is super easy to get to smile and also super quick to start fussing.  Rebecca's personality seems pretty similar to mine as a child - either laughing hysterically or crying and seems pretty social. :)  She recently started reaching for toys on her bouncer, and play mat. She also has really started to notice Benjamin and will follow him around with her eyes.   

LOVES: her hands, fans, taking her paci out, eating, watching her brother play, bath time, trying to hold her bottle, being outside, taking naps on Mommy and Daddy's bed.

NOT A FAN OF: being burped, changing clothes, not being held by Mommy.

Rebecca wears 3/6 months clothes, and size 2 diapers.  She goes to bed around 7 and wakes up around 7.  We are on night 3 of her going that whole time and not eating! YEAH!  She still wakes up around 5 and needs some attention in order to get her back down. (If Will is about to leave for work I throw her in bed with us.) I am hopeful that pretty soon she will be a 7-7 baby! Rebecca eats every 2-3 hours during the day (7, 9, 12, 3, 6ish) and takes 4 naps (9:00, 11:00, 1:00, 5ish) that are literally 41 minutes.  I have timed them and its incredible how to the minute she will wake up! The 1:00 nap is the longest nap but she still wakes after 41 mins and will fuss until she falls asleep.  She is no longer swaddled and enjoys her pacifier from time to time. She still takes medicine (Prevacid, and Zantac) for her acid reflux twice a day.

Rebecca is way more of a mama's girl than Benjamin was at this age.

"Princess naps" - sleeping in Mommy's bed.

This particular nap she would open her eyes every time I let go of her hand. So sweet.

 Bumbo and Sophie fun.

Rebecca loves wearing bows for any occasion. 

L.O.V.E.

Holding her bottle with a tiny bit of help.

We are loving our life as a family of 4! I can't wait to see what new things Rebecca learns to do this month!
