Lila at 4 Months

So my grandma Faber loves to read the blogs of her grandkids. If you talk to her and it's been a while since your last post, she will certainly point that out to you. And if it has been a really long time, she will sometimes even send you a little email telling you that it is time to get yourself together and post something for her to read.

I love that she is so excited to learn about our lives. It is fun to know that there is someone who checks just about every single day to see if you have anything new for her to look at. I feel lucky that I am able to see her fairly often, but it is nice that she can catch up with things in between our get-togethers.

So the last time we talked she wanted me to give montly updates about Lila. So I will basically (meaning exactly) copy cat my sister Anna, and I believe Jasmine did this too for her kids until they were 1. Wish me luck in keeping up with this every month.

At four months Lila: laughs. cries less. rolls to her side. likes arching her back whether happy or sad. stopped taking her binky. holds things. starting to put things in her mouth. loves sucking on her fingers. spoiled rotten. pretty blue eyes. scratches whether or not her nails are long. likes having her diaper or clothes changed. fidgety. no longer screams during baths (sometimes is even quiet!) still likes driving, but not as much. loves being outside. occasionally sleeps through the night. Finally sleeping in her own room. wearing size 1-2 diapers. starting to grow out of size 3-6 month clothes. drools like a bulldog. blows bubbles.

you'll be glad you do this. I am currently making our blog into a book and it's really nice to have things written down about Reagan, stuff I totally forgot about. It's the only way I think I will journal things and now that I know I can make it into a cute hardbound book to keep forever I pay more attention to writing stuff I want to remember. The initial motivation is to share with others who like to read our blog but I know I'm going to love my book because these kids do so much we forget about!
