We are 4 months old!!!

We are now 4 months old!!! And boy has it been a busy busy month.  We were in a beauty pageant, we went to our first USM football game, we went to see Harley cheer and Hayden play football, Uncle B came home, she became a shed head, went to another wedding, .. Wow I am exhausted just thinking about all we did last month.  LOL..

Here is my 4 month picture

I am beginning to like my bouncey seat.

Addy has grown so much over the last few weeks.  She has found her feet, and she loves to play with them.  We moved on to size 2 diapers.  We can still wear some 0-3 outfits, but the 3 month fit the best.  3-6 month outfits are still a little big.  We have a problem finding shoes too.  She is in between newborn shoes and size 2 shoes.  And I can't find any in between.  She is so much more alert now and slobbers all the time.  We are also chewing on just about anything.  Unfortunatly she has started fighting her sleep, so nights aren't always the most peaceful around here.  She also loves to sit in her bumbo seat.  Last month she liked to play on her mat, but the past few weeks she would rather be sitting in her seat.  We love our toys and play with them all the time.  She is still a morning person and once we wake her up she gets the biggest grin when either I or her daddy start talking to her.  It starts my day off right!

This is what we do in the bath tub now. We sit up and chew on the side.

Here is my first beauty pageant.

She is trying to hold her bottle.  She kinda knows what to do, but we have a little way to go.

WARNING WARNING... PICTURE OVERLOAD!!!

Here is a bunch of random pictures from Addy's 4th month.

We had our four month check up Friday!!! Where has time gone???

She did fabulous and passed with flying colors!  Dr. S asked if she was trying to start rolling over and I kinda looked at him a little funny and said (as you know if you have read the blog before) "we have been flipping like a fish for a while now!" He was kinda shocked.  His next question was is she showing any interest in toys, and of course the answer to that was also we LOVE our toys and play with them all the time!!! I made the statement she was trying to start sitting up and they were really shocked.  They thought I was crazy until they were examining her and said "wow she is trying to sit up." 

She weighed in at a whopping 14 lbs and 12 ozs (70%) she was 25 7/8 inches long (90%) and her poor little head is 16 inches (30%).

We get to start eating from a spoon!!! YAY!!!!  I have been so excited about starting baby food for a while now!  He wanted us to start rice cereal first (whoops we started that in our bottle a couple months ago) and I didn't want to wait till I got home, so we went straight to Target and bought some rice cereal and baby food and then went straight to Nana's and started eating... I think I had way more fun than Addy.  She actually did rather well Friday.  See....


But Saturday we didn't do so well and had it all over me, her, the bumbo seat, and the kitchen counter.  Sunday was a little better, but by Monday we had this down pat.

Its amazing watching her eat.  I take for granted that we know when we eat our belly's get full.  She doesn't understand that yet and I never realized that before she really needs the nutrients from baby food she has to "learn" how to eat.  I love being responsible for teaching her all these new concepts that we all take for granted.  This journey of motherhood is way more awesome than I ever expected! 

We didn't do as well with our shots this week. We broke out into a little rash on her face, stomach and back and we were rather fussy Friday night and Saturday.  But by Sunday we were in the best mood and had a great day!

This is my first bite!!! (Besides what papa has snuck in my mouth)

This is day 2 of eating from our spoon!

Pumpkin Patch

Saturday we went to the pumpkin patch in collins/seminary with Aunt Karla, Bre Bre, and Shells Bells.  We had a good time until the weather warmed up and Addybug got a little to hot.  She got her shots Friday and had a small rash and the sun brought that rash back out and she just didnt feel good from them.  But we got some great pictures!!  Next year she will be old enough to really enjoy the pumpkin patch and play on all the fun toys.

I am so excited about this picture.  Its our goal every year to take a picture by this sign and see how much she has grown from year to year!!!

Me and Addybug!

This is Addy and Bre Bre.  I love love love love this picture.  Notice Addy's smile. 

Whew!!

Last night we had a rough night.  We have had a cold over the past few days and started running fever last night for the first time.  It was 100.7.  :(  Not only did we have a rough night because of that, but momma let Addy bump her head and get her first boo boo.  SSSSSHHHHH!!!! Don't tell Daddy he doesn't know. ha ha.  We are much better tonight.  Still have a small fever, but still smiling and laughing.
