Leah ~ 4 Months

It seems like just yesterday I was writing about Leah turning 3 months...I can't say it enough, but the time is going by so fast! She has grown so much this past month, both physically and mentally. Here are some highlights from this past month...

~ She is becoming a chunky little thing, especially in her thighs...poor girl {LOL!}. I can't help but pinch her cute little thighs every time that I change her...those rolls are just so dang cute! She also has the cutest little double chin that you have ever seen!
~ She has figured out her vocal cords and she not only talks, but she sings! She will be in the back of the car and hum the same sound over and over again...so cute!
~ She has great head control for only being 4 months old. Very impressive.
~ She loves to stand up and she is surprisingly very sturdy. She might be following Noah's footsteps in terms of crawling and walking...she just doesn't want to take her time!
~ Blowing raspberries are her favorite past time!
~ She can now hold on to toys and keep herself entertained with them for a good amount of time. She loves anything that makes noise, so her rattles are her favorite.
~ She is starting to realize the power of a good cry and that it can get her what she wants. She was pretty quiet for the first 3 months...those days are gone. She loves to be held and will cry whenever we put her down. She pretty much spends every waking moment in mine, or Doug's, arms. She is a smart little cookie and she knows how to get what she wants...that's for sure!
~ She kicks, and she kicks hard!! She is like a machine that doesn't stop...I guess she needs to work off her fat rolls!
~ She still sleeps through the night!
~ She has the prettiest little smile and she shares it with us all of the time! Oh...it seriously just melts my heart to see my kids happy and smiling!


***DRUMROLL PLEASE***

~ Leah rolls over from her belly to her back! She just started to do this tonight, on her 4 month birthday! Every time that we put her on her belly, she flips right over and gives us the biggest grin. Yay Leah!!!

Well, those are some of the many highlights from this past month. We just love this little princess to pieces! Here are some pics from this past month {sorry there are so many...I couldn't just pick a few to share!}.

She loves those rings!

Look at those chunky thighs!
I just love the look on her face in this picture!

Smile big!
Hold that head up!

Oh Angie, your little Leah is SO SO CUTE! Love the little rolls on her legs! She really has grown in the past couple of months! What a lucky family you are to have such wonderful kids! If you are interested in infant massage, I still need to teach a family for my certification! Let me know. Hope you are enjoying your summer!
