Mia's 4 month update

I can't believe that my sweet baby is already FOUR months old! She had her four month Dr's appt on Wednesday and here are her stats:
  • weight:15# 5oz (75 percentile)
  • height: 24 1/2 inches (50 percentile)
A few highlights from the Dr:
  • she is very proportionate and will grow into her little chunky rolls
  • she is holding her head up and she kept smiling at the Dr. She had no idea what was coming
  • she received her 4 month shots and it breaks my heart every time :(
  • Dr says she is should start putting herself to sleep so we should start letting her cry it out
So this weekend we are going to try and just let her cry herself to sleep. the Dr said it will be harder on us then her but it should only 3 days so we will start on Friday and go from there. Hopefully we will have quick success! Mia is doing really well, she is such a happy baby and loves to look around at everything and everyone. She is afraid she will miss something :) She is enjoying her exersucer more and is able to sit up for 1-2 seconds before falling over. She is bringing her hands to midline and loves to put her hands in her mouth. She a elephant on her play mat that she has staring contests with and when she loses (she always does) she eats his trunk. Too cute! She also is more vocal, sometime she will just yell (not crying) but yell to remind you that she is here. I will try to post some videos this weekend of her.

In conclusion, we are so in love of our little girl and are so grateful to GOD for giving us such a sweet and miraculous gift!
