So our sweet Adelaide turned 4 months old on April 10th. It's been a crazy 4 months and it doesn't seem to be getting any more "normal". Baby girl had her 4 month check up this past Friday, the 19th. We have a healthy 14.4 lb, 25.5 in long temperamental baby girl! Doc said she was doing great! What a blessing. She of course got shots (because we believe in protecting the human friggin race people) and she did pretty good. Her 2 month shots were a nightmare. She slept all day and wouldn't eat and then was up all night with a high fever. Yikes. So this time I made sure to make the appointment on a Friday so that my sweet Hubby could help me during the night if it was needed. Well...it was like night and day. She of course got pissed off, however was a pretty happy girl the rest of the day. A little fussy here and there Saturday, but overall she was a trooper this time.
We are still exclusively breastfeeding and hope to not introduce any solids until 6 months. So far she doesn't seem to need anything else and we aren't going to shove food down her mouth. She will let us know when she is ready!

| Tired of waiting on Doc...so she decided to eat the paper! |
 |
| After getting shots, we thought we would cheer her up by letting her drive!!! ;) |
**So here are some things we have learned about our little monster**
~She has to hold onto something while she sleeps just like Mommy and Daddy. So for her right now that is a thin receiving blanket that she snuggles up to. It's so cute!
 |
| She's not holding on to it in this pic...but normally she is holding on tight! |
~She loves to stick her tongue out when the wind is blowing...I suppose she gets a kick out of the feeling. It's hilarious!
~She must not give a darn about rolling over because she has only done it a few times. She prefers to scoot or turn herself around.
~She has a crazy temper. If she doesn't get what she wants as soon as she wants it she lets you and the whole neighborhood know it. This kid has no patience, and boy can she get worked up fast. Her "I'm pissed off at you" cry is unmistakable and she can turn it off just as fast as she turned it on. Can we say DIVA!?
~She loves to talk...but mainly just at home or while nursing. I guess she is shy. She gets a kick out of taking a break from eating and just talking away. Her favorite thing to do is make that long drawn out sound like in the movie The Grudge! Yeah, no lie! So it's like a super long raspy AHHHHHHHH. It's like she wants to see how long she can make that one noise before taking another breath. It never gets old! We love talking to our peanut.
**Some new things our peanut is doing**
~She rolled over at 15 weeks. But like I said seems to have no interest in doing it often.
~She has been sitting up pretty well for a while now. Of course after a little bit she takes that baby dive off to the side or just flat out face plants trying to reach a toy. It never really seems to bother her too much. We just sit her back up and she keeps on trucking.
 |
| Watching her morning cartoons of course! |
~She is finally big enough and strong enough for an exer-saucer! She loves it and we have so much fun watching her in it. She is growing up way too fast.
