4 Months!

Happy 4 Months Lydia Rose!! Time is FLYING by. Lydia is growing so fast! I feel like she does something different every day. My favorite thing about Lydia this month is that she laughs all the time! She laughs at things I don't anticipate she'll think are funny and it always brightens my day.

You weigh: 15 lbs 15 oz
You are: 26.75 inches long (over 100th percentile for height! Woah!)

This month you've enjoyed: Play dates with Liz and Asher, reading lots of books, visits with Nana/Papa and Gram/ Grandpa, stroller rides at the gym, listening to mom sing primary songs, practicing rolling over (you're not too interested in that yet), sitting up in the bumbo to eat dinner with mom and dad (or watch us eat dinner haha), getting hugs and pats from Serena, bath time, kisses from Milo and Maggie, Date night with Daddy while Mom's at work, having a blanket dragged slowly across your face, playing with your stuffed giraffe and lovies, going to your first real babysitter Amy Peterson, playing peek-a-boo (you think it's SOOO funny. Even on the phone skyping David and Katelin), and giving kisses.

What you are doing: lots of talking, putting both hands on our face and giving BIG open mouth kisses on our cheeks when we say "can i have a kiss?", hooking two fingers on your bottom gums and suckling on them, kicking your legs and waving your arms a lot, especially when you're excited, gasping really loud over and over when you're excited, you make a funny loooooong grunting noise we've affectionately named your "baby pterodactyl call" when we're driving in the car, 15 minutes of happy tummy time, putting our hands in your mouth, sucking on blankets, and cuddling close to Dad when you're scared.

We love watching you grow!
