Rocking and Rolling

You had your 4 month check up on February 3!  You were such a champ, as you got 3 more shots and an oral vaccination!  You are developing right on track!  You are rolling over tummy to back, babbling, laughing (though it takes a bit of work on mom and dad’s part to make you laugh!) and playing with your feet! And tonight you rolled from your back to your tummy!  Of course, dad had just left the house, so I ran and got the camera and caught you on video!  Your 4 month check-up (2 weeks shy) measurements are as follows: Head 16.5 in. (81%), Height 23 1/4 in. (22%), and weight 12 lbs 8 oz (40%)!  We also started you on rice cereal. You are so funny to watch when I feed you!  You seem to be very interested in the cereal and you will even open your mouth for me…and then you get this horrendous look on your face and spit and thrust that tongue out further than I have ever seen! It is SOOOO fun to watch you develop and change!  You have been quite the drama queen lately…if dad or I leave the room to go do whatever…you stick your lip out and start to cry!  And we just laugh! But do know…that we love you very much! I have so many things that I just love about you, but I think the thing(s) that I am enjoying the most are: when you wake up in the morning and you just talk away to the world and as much as it pains me (or I should say my boob) I love when you rip off the nipple and look up at me with this BIG grin on your face and then you giggle a bit!  And of course I love to what you grow and learn about everything!  Daycare continues to go well and the girls there just adore you! We continue to be pretty active on the weekends, as the weather has allowed us to put you in the Chariot and go for some runs and some nice walks!  We are hoping to put you in your own room here soon…your mom is just too lazy to get up in the middle of the night to walk down the hall to feed you! But I cannot complain, you are only waking up once at night and every now and again you will let your mom sleep through the night!  Hadley, you are such a wonderful blessing and joy in our lives and we love you so very much!
