4 Months.

 

Blair is 4 Months old! Oh my! Where did my tiny baby go? She's growing up so fast it's crazy! Every single day she is doing something new and making new noises. I can't get enough of this mom thing, it's pretty amazing.

We went to the doctor last week and she weighed 14 pounds and 11 ounces, and was 26 inches tall!

For a few days, including the day I took these pictures, Blair was being a little moody. I joke that I already have a teenager on my hands, haha. But really.....smiling one second, crying the next! I think she is having teething pains (my poor baby). She was totally over taking these pictures about 3 minutes in. I'm lucky to have gotten so many good ones though!

So some milestones Blair has hit recently (even though most are mentioned in the Easter post!)

-Officially laughs! It's the best sound I've ever heard!

-She can sit-up by herself for about 20 seconds, and the time is getting longer and longer every day!

-Makes the cutest little baby noises ever.

-Rolls over from back to tummy nonstop, then screams because she hates being on her tummy. (It really is a fun game we like to play, where I roll her back over and she rolls herself back over...ha)

 -Loves bath time, she is my little mermaid!

-Hates riding in the carseat, it's a 20 minute scream fest everytime.

-Loves to stand-up with some help!

-Loves her stand-up (jumper thing?) she just got from her nanny and papa!

-Needs her momma when she's really upset (I LOVE that I'm the only one that can calm her down sometimes).

-Smiles the biggest, gummiest smile every time she sees me (melts my heart!)

-She loves to feel things, she will sit there and pet you or your clothes for the longest time, it's cute!

-Loves to eat smashed up bananas! 

-Had stopped sleeping through the night, which was pure torture because we were so spoiled, so we decided to add cereal to her milk at night....and voila! Back to sleeping through the night! Yay!

-Loves going for walks in her stroller, she coos and looks all around her the whole time. My little explorer!

-Loves being outside period!

-When I lay her on a blanket outside she gets so excited and can't stop kicking, smiling, and cooing!

-She absolutely loves her cousin Kharter (he's 4). I told Jacob that Blair was in love with Kharter, and Kharter said, "I'm in love too! I'm in love with baby Blair!" It was kinda the cutest thing ever.

Blair's First Easter.

 

 

Happy First Easter Blair! 

This was definitely the best Easter Weekend I've ever had! Blair just makes life so much more fun (and exhausting..but she's worth it!). She was so excited about her Easter basket from the Easter Bunny, it was so cute! Even though she probably doesn't really know what's going on, you could tell how excited she was about her basket, books, and stuffed bunny! She just has the best personality!

She's almost 4 months, and she finally gave us her first real laugh this weekend while we were taking her pictures!! It is the bet sound I've ever heard! Jacob was making funny noises trying to get her to smile, but this girl had a fit of the giggles instead! Haha, it was so adorable. I snapped a million pictures of this girl's perfect laugh...then I thought, "why am I not recording this!?" So I did!  I'm so glad we have that memory we can look back on for the rest of our lives! Jacob tries to make those same noises to get her to laugh....but she's over it haha. She doesn't find it funny anymore, we will have to find something else to get those giggles out of her!

Last weekend after church Blair rolled over from her back to tummy for the first time, but she couldn't get her arm out from underneath her....this weekend after church she rolled over from back to tummy and successfully got her arm out from underneath her! We were so proud of her and so excited!! 

Blair also tried her first "solid" food this weekend, bananas! She liked them too! It's so cute to see her face when I give them to her, she just has no idea what it is haha. She also had some this morning after her morning bottle, I can't believe how fast she is growing up. Makes this momma a little sad. I'm so happy I have a husband that works his butt off so I don't have to miss a thing! And I'm thrilled that Miss Blair waits until daddy is home to do all these firsts so he can enjoy them too!

I'll never be able to put into words just how much I love you little lady, you bring me so much joy and you complete our little family! I love you!
