5.11.11 - 4 months!

I can't believe how fast time is flying by & that our baby girl is already 4 months old!! She is seriously spoiling us rotten and everyone tells us to not expect the next one to be as good to us as she is. But we can hope, right?
Rori's 4 month stats:
Weight: 12 lbs 4 oz (21%)
Length: 24.5 in (60%)
Head: 39 cm (7%)

Here's a cute video of Rori talking to me a few days ago. So cute! :)

And of course no blog post would be complete without a picture or two of our darling little munchkin. We love you, sweet girl!
LOVE those chubby little cheeks!
This one made me laugh. She's really strong but still doesn't like to do tummy time very much. She's not even crying, just complaining :)
At 4 months:
-She's getting better at laughing more and more. We love it!
-She rolled over for the first time on my mom's birthday 5.10.11, and is still working on doing it again on her own. (She actually did roll over again later the same night I posted this. You go, girl!)
-She sleeps through the night most nights, and even when she doesn't she's still a really good sleeper and will go right back to sleep after she eats.
-She loves to sit and will lean forward enough to get into a full sitting position when we prop her up on a pillow or in the corner of the couch. She LOVES to sit! We have to watch her really well though because she's not strong enough to stay sitting yet and usually topples over :)
-She loves bath time more and more and is really getting into kicking her feet and splashing water all over us!
-She starting "talking" more in the last couple of weeks. Sometimes I'll be busy doing something and she'll just entertain herself by talking to her hand or the fan or whatever catches her eye. I love it! Her little voice is seriously to die for!
-She's working on saying "mom" and it makes me so proud! (Watch the video if you haven't already.)
-She's working on regrowing some of her hair because I finally scrapped off her cradle cap and she lost a good amount of hair with it.
-She learned to suck her thumb but likes to suck on her fingers too. Lately she mostly just gags herself. Silly girl.
-She is very alert and really soaks in everything around her.

She is getting so big! People always say time goes by way too fast, but I never understood it until I had a baby!
