4 Months Old!


This sweet girl turned 4 months on the 26th. Didn't I just write about her 3 month stats!?!?! Time is just flying by! Emalina is the sweetest little baby. Easy going, happy, inquisitive, cuddly, and the list goes on! 
Sometimes I look at her and it still blows my mind that we have three kids and that Emalina is apart of our family. She really does fit right in though, and I couldn't imagine life without her now. 
Here are some things that she is up to these days:
  • She has found her hands. She loves sucking in her knuckle or her index finger. Sometime she sucks on her first two fingers... which was exactly like her mama. At time... she even tries to get a whole fist in!
  • She has started lifting up her legs/knees when she is on her back
  • She is getting a bald spot in the back of her head
  • She loves watching Bella and Ethan play
  • She DOES NOT take the bottle (poor Ben found that out the hard way on our trip)
  • Even though she loves her susu, she pops it out of her mouth a lot to suck on her finger/knuckle and a few times I have seen that she is able to put her susu back in her mouth all by herself
  • She reaches for her toys and brings them to her mouth to suck on
  • Loves her Taggies blankets and has started playing with the taggies
  • Still loves being swaddled
  • Sleeps through the night 
  • She has strong abs... in the third photo below you can see that she uses her abs to pull herself forward. We have to make sure that we strap her into her bouncy chair and swing... so she doesn't launch herself out
  • As you can see, she is definitely scouting the mohawk! 
  • She LOVES covering her face when she goes to sleep
  • In size 2 diapers
  • Fits into 3-6 month clothes... but they won't fit for much longer
  • She has baby thunder thighs! LOL!
  • Sometimes Emalina really reminds me of Isabella at the same time period. Here is ISABELLA and ETHAN's shrinking Bear links. Check them out.
