Ellie is 4 months old!


 Eliya you are 4 months old! I can't believe how fast time is going by,
you are growing and changing every day
You are 14lbs 7oz (50th %tile) and 24 inches long (30th %tile).
You are longer and leaner then your big brother at the same age *he was 15lbs 2oz and 22 inches
You wear size 2 diaper and are somewhere between 0-3 and 3-6 month clothing.
You are such a happy baby. You smile and coo ALL the time. All it takes is a smile and a "Hi!" and you get so excited. When you smile you let out a little giggle and you get so excited that you twist your whole little body!
You are ticklish especially on the neck and squeel in delight when I lotion you after bethtime each night.
You are a mama's girl and happiest with me. You still love to be worn in our sling
and your not a great fan of the stroller.
You sleep on your belly and just this week have moved to your crib.
Sometimes you sleep thru the night and sometimes you wake up. You were sleeping awesome but this last week has brought about a lot of changes, including in your sleep!
You like to nurse a lot every 3 hours or so, and you WILL NOT take a bottle at all.
This stresses mama out a bit but we will make it work!
You have been rolling back to belly since July 3rd and each day you get a bit better. This week you can also go belly to back, you can make your way right across the livingroom!
You are also creeping a bit, this shocked mama!
You love toys and your little lovies.
You won't take a paci but you love to hold and chew on a blankie.
You are so strong! You like to play in your exersaucer and jolly jumper.
But we have to be super careful because you can excape your bumbo
and sit straight up in your bouncer!
You adore your big brother and he is in love with you!
I love watching the two of you together and pray that you will grow into great friends!
Eliya, we love you so much. We aren't sure if you are the last of our babies, but if you are you certainly complete every dream we ever had.
