7.22.13 - 4 months!

I really feel like Savannah is growing like a weed, and I mean that in the best way possible.  She's just growing WAY too fast for my liking.  I love that Aurora has been so tiny all along, and it makes me feel like Savannah is growing up faster--partly because she's bigger and partly because I feel like I don't get to sit down and soak in the newness and excitement of a tiny baby as much as I could with Aurora.  How we love our sweet little Savannah.  She makes my heart melt.

Savannah's 4 month stats:
Weight: 15 lbs 6.5 oz (74%)
Lenght: 25.5 inches (88%)
Head: 41 cm (61%)
(She had a bit of a growth spurt)

At FOUR months:
-Savannah has most definitely earned her nickname: "Smiles".  We love those smiles we get so often and seriously can't get enough of them!
-She has rolled over a couple of times, but mostly just rolls onto her side rather than all the way over.
-She is such a great sleeper and getting better and better at falling asleep on her own when we put her in her crib still awake.  She usually falls asleep while she's eating, which makes naps and bed time pretty easy at this point.
-She's getting really consistent with her nap schedule, and seems irritated when she doesn't get to nap at home in her bed if we're out and about during nap time. She takes a morning nap and an afternoon nap, and she sleeps all night but sometimes wakes up in the early hours of the morning to eat.  She always sleeps in her crib now.  How lucky are we to have such a great sleeper?!
-She takes her binky (Rori calls it "the bink") pretty well but still likes to suck her thumb a lot too.
-She still has not gotten out a good belly laugh but her giggles are pretty darn cute and coming more frequently, which we absolutely love!
-She interacts more with Aurora and I love seeing the two of them "playing" together as much as they can at this point.
-She loves her sister and lights up when Rori comes in the room and gives her a big smooch on her head.
-She has the cutest little pouty lip when she's sad.
-She can grab toys and put them in her mouth.  She loves to munch on stuff, and I'm really hoping she's not working on getting teeth yet!
-We've moved her up to size 3 diapers already--like I said, she's growing WAY too fast!!
-She's such a happy and pleasant baby!

So cute! Cut chunky babies are a lot of fun too, I know from experience.
