(us last week at his sister's wedding)

We celebrated by canceling the babysitter (our kiddos had hacking coughs) and taking them to the apple store for a new phone and Red Robin.

Cheers to us! 

Best decision. Ever.

Four Months Young (plus a day)

 This little peanut is four months old!

I won't be repetitious and ask how four months have passed already…

But really, how the heck has it already been four months?!

 *She's a chatter box. Constantly gurgling and cooing, trying really hard to have a conversation with you. Still as smiley and happy as can be.

*Starting to 'play' with toys by hitting, shaking, and sucking/biting them.

*Had her first day away from me (12 hrs) and did just fine with frozen milk and hanging out with her second mom, Mandi. Her other mom, Abby, also has magical mommy powers and watches her quite a bit.

 *Still has very blue eyes.

*Is very ticklish but will cry if you tickle her.

*Started giggling on her four month birthday when I nibbled her delicious tummy.

 *Is ginormous (in a good delectable way)

- 17 lbs 12 oz (90th percentile)

- 26 1/2 inches long (waaaay off the charts)

*Her doctor said she was the size of a 6 1/2 month old =)

*Can surprisingly fit into quite a bit of her 3-6 month clothes, but is safely and comfortably wearing 6-9 month.

*I called Ben at work to tell him her stats which he passed along to 2 other doctors he was working with who said we must get her into sport's camps pronto and not waste that size.

I completely agree.

 *About 3 weeks ago started sleeping 12 hours straight at night. Then a few days ago started waking up once to nurse. Her doctor says it's probably a growth spurt and give her another week then shut the night feeding down. You bet I will.

 *Has her first airplane ride to SLC next week then Seattle a few weeks after that.

*Wish Charlotte and I luck.

 *Is so scrumptious it's hard not to constantly kiss and nibble on her.

*Charlotte was talking to her and said, "Ohhhh, baby, you are so cute! I want to rip your head off and eat you!"

I told her that wasn't normal.

In which she replied (annoyed), "Oh, Mom. I'll put her head back on."

 "Give me that camera.. I need to give it a lickery kiss."

 "Mmmmmmmm…"

 *Is very very close to rolling over. 

 Oh

 my

 goodness

 I

love her.
