4 months and I am in complete denial! We welcomed a new cousin this month (Ingrid Abigail) and Alivia is a literal giant compared to her. She no longer feels like a tiny baby :(.
GROWTH
We are finally leveling out, but still growing! We now weigh 14 lbs and are 25 inches long.
EAT
Alivia is such a good little nurser. She still wakes up once a night to eat, but I really don’t mind because she goes right back to sleep. She is so efficient too- never nursing longer than 10 minutes!
CLOTHES
We comfortably fill out 3-6 month clothes, and have so many cute outfits for winter that I can’t wait to try. I just ordered the girls’ Christmas dresses the other day- it’s so much fun dressing them up together! Our size 2 diapers are getting snug, and poop keeps sneaking out, so as soon as we finish up this box we’ll be moving on to size 3!
PLAY & DEVELOPMENT
Smiling is our favorite activity, along with squealing! I ordered a new set of teethers (find them here on Amazon), and they are getting plenty of good use! I swore we had some teeth coming, but nothing has poked through yet. Lots of drool, and a little fussy at times, so I won’t be surprised when one pops through! We borrowed a sit me up from a friend, and we love to sit up and look around. And don’t tell our pediatrician, but we also LOVE watching TV. According to Addison, Lion Guard is her favorite show 🙂
