Miss Emma's FOUR Month Stats

Weight: 13.8 lbs (50th %) (Ryan weighed 14.2 lbs)

Length: 25.75 inches (+95%) (Ryan was 25.25 inches)

Head Circumference: 40.5 (50%) (Ryan's was 42.5 )

Hair: Still none to report, but she has a very shiny bald spot in back above her sparse mullet.

Eyes: so far staying blue

Skin tone: Pale! SPF 70 and a hat to protect this perfect pale skin!

Eating: She eats every 3.5-4 hours and is now eating 5 oz each feedings. She still has 5 feedings a day, but I am about to drop one more when we add real baby food next week. She can now make it 12 whole hours overnight in between feedings and she never wakes up to eat before 7, and sometiems we wake her at 8! She eats rice cereal by spoon every morning for breakfast.

Sleeping: Bedtime for Emma has moved earlier. She lets me know she is tired and ready to nurse around 7:15 and is usually in her crib asleep by 7:30. She goes right to sleep when we lay her down. So low maintenance! She sleeps in until 9:30 a.m. and usually naps from 11:30-2, 3-5:00. She has quit taking an evening nap and that is why her bedtime is a little earlier. All sleeping is done in her crib at our house and in her pack n play at Mamaw's house.

Size: 6 month clothes, size 1-2 diapers (she is ready for size 2, but I have one more box of size 1 and it says "up to 15 pounds", so I am using them! I have yet to buy a single diaper for Miss Emma thanks to the diaper shower that Kristi threw for me!)

Likes: playing hide and seek, gurgling and talking, Baby Einstein play station, cereal, rattles and toys with mirrors, open mouth kisses, playing with her daddy, baths in the big bath tub with her sister, watching Ryan do anything, naps, watching Mickey Mouse with Ryan, popsicles, her horse, laying on a quilt outside, watching the leaves blow in the wind

Newest Accomplishment: giggling, gurgling, rolling all over the place, enjoying tummy time, her feet almost touch in the horse and the Baby Einstein play station, taking her paci out and putting it back in (taking out happens more often),

Happy go lucky little girl!

She is so strong. She will be sitting soon!

Bouncing in her horse!

Giggling while eating is cute, but messy!

This girl loves her cereal! SO excited that she is ready to start real food.

Finally some flavor!
