Tilly - 4 Months






  



Ok so taking these pictures are getting harder now, not because we have tears, but because I have a squirmy little baby who now likes to attack the poor elephant.  See below some lovely outtakes! :)










I was waiting to write this post until her 4 month appointment today, but it ended up being canceled last minute due to a death in the family of our pediatrician.  We now are going November 3, so I won't have her weight/height or doctor details until then.



Month: 4 - October 21, 2014

Height: (see above)

Weight: My guess is 11lb 15oz, and Lance thinks 12lb 5oz.. we'll see soon what this little bit is up to

Diaper Size: Size 1

Clothes Size:  She is almost officially all in 0-3 month now.. yay!!! She can still wear some of the bigger newborn onesies, but I don't think for long. What is that people tell you? Don't get a lot of newborn because they'll barely wear it.. hmm. Not my tiny tot.

Sleep:  She is still my amazing little sleeper.  Her bedtime is now bumped back to around 8:30-9pm and on average she sleeps until 7-8am. ((This update was until her 4 month. So far no sleep regression.. BUT, we have started the not so great transition to her crib. Lord help us all...  Tonight is night 3.  I decided at 4 months since she is getting uncomfortable in her Rock N Play, her reflux is MUCH better, and she is 4 months, the time has come to be stern with the switch. Sigh. This baby is not having it.))

Eat: SO SO SOOOOO much better.  Her minimum is 4oz, with maybe a 5oz & 6oz in the middle of the day.  She is still eating around every 3 hours, unless it's a bigger bottle then she'll go 4.  She still can't eat a ton at once, so I am ok with more frequent, as long as it stays down!  She was only having around 17-19oz total a day and now average is 23-25oz. Go Tilly!

Likes:  Chewing on her hands and shoving them as far in her mouth as they'll go. She just won't keep them out! She loves grabbing her feet and pulling them, playing with Mommy and Daddy, ONLY napping on Mommy during the day (ah), and just being a smiley, happy little baby.  She loves to blow bubbles out of her mouth, and recently is into sticking out her tongue.

Dislikes:  Still love/hate with the car seat. And 100% hates her crib.  Hopefully it gets better.

Firsts:  She finally, finally laughed! For a baby who smiles and coos 24/7 you would think she would've laughed by now.  Randomly one night she just did it while eating. It was sooo cute. 

Extra Updates:  Nothing too crazy here.  She is doing so much better with tummy time, and does awesome at her little baby "gym" class Tuesday mornings.  She is getting stronger and stronger each day, and turning into such a big girl! (developmentally, not size wise haha).  She is our sweet, tiny little princess and I can't believe she is already 4 months old!!

Five on Friday

Today the Five on Friday link-up starts back, so I thought I would join in on the fun with my 5 random things! :)






ONE:



I have found the most comfortable flats and of all places where? ..Payless! I haven't shopped here in a long time, but actually saw a blog post a while ago about their Deluxe Comfort shoes in heels.  I decided to check them out on their website, and noticed they came in flats too! The next time I was near a store, I decided to go in and give them a try. I bought the red pair last Thanksgiving and actually never wore them until a few weeks ago.  They were so comfy, I went back this week and got the black! I will say, going up half a size helped with comfort.  My reds are my normal size 6, but I got the black in 6.5 and can definitely tell a difference.  Here is a link to Payless if you want to go check them out! :) 

There are many different styles of the Deluxe Comfort, so look around! Also, they are on sale right now for only $17.99, originally $29.99.  A steal either way.




TWO:


I have been a fan of Maybelline's Baby Lips for awhile, and am loving this new color!
 
 
THREE:

We started our playgroup this week and look at these cuties! We have one more member that couldn't make it today, so we will have 4 total.  Tilly is only 2 weeks younger than the sweet little boy in the middle, but she's a tiny thing! We have our Small, Medium, and Large! :)
 
 
FOUR:
I just love October. This is the month I moved, October 2, 2011, got married, October 27, 2012, and found out I was pregnant, October 13, 2013.
 
 
FIVE:
And of course I can't leave out the cutest little monkey baby in the world!
Happy Friday!!! :)
