Dinnertime fun

My 4 month old

Kenley turned 4 months old yesterday and I know I totally sound like a broken record by this point, but really where has the time gone? I can hardly believe how fast she has grown and how each day is more wonderful than the last. She now rolls over, smiles, laughs, and makes all sorts of sounds (we say she is talking to us.)  We have had a few sleeping issues this week but all in all we are doing great. We head to the doctor on Friday so I'll have our stats updates then. I'm assuming she weighs around 14.5lbs and we think she is about 26 inches long. BIG GIRL! She is enjoying the time at the daycare but she refuses to nap for them so sometimes we have a cranky girl after work. She did get her first boo boo the other day when she managed to flip the bouncy seat when they were outside and she knocked her head on the ground. Had a small red bump but it quickly healed and she was very alert so we didn't freak too much about a head trauma (although I had to call a friend for some mom reassurance).  Nights after work go so quickly that I hardly realize the days are passing before it seems to be the wonderful weekend again. Stay tuned for Friday's update(s) and probably more pictures.

For the record...

You know we all have them, those pictures from our youth that we look at and say, "OMG MOM, why did you dress me like that?!" Well, I took a picture of Kenley today that I'm sure she will think the same thing years from now, so I want to go on the record as saying, "I did NOT dress you." Your father packed your diaper bag and obviously didn't care if the "mix and match" separates really "matched" or not and the sitter threw together this lovely ensemble after you chose to spit up on the cute outfit I dressed you in this morning. So again, for the record, I did not dress you like this...

Our new trick

We knew she was getting close but she finally did it. She did it Thursday at the sitter but hadn't been able to do it at home until today. Of course the first time, I wasn't watching and turned around to this...

but then we got to see this...

Daddy was/is so proud...

 All day we spent rolling over. Everytime we laid her down, she would immediately roll to her belly. One time she even rolled back to her back and then back to her belly. Three rolls in a row and she ended up off the blanket.

She must have rolled at least 20 times today. I hope she can remember how tomorrow ;o)

Storytime

We have discovered something new and fun to do together after work. Storytime ;o)

We have been doing 1 or 2 books and some looking around, so it seems we are enjoying more time on our tummy now. I hope it keeps up because I really enjoy reading to her and I hope she will love books as much as I do.

Hey! How did you do that?

Does any one see anything wrong with this picture?

Well, considering we put her to bed with her head at the other side (left) of the crib, she went 180 degrees and mostly with the pacifier in her mouth too as it seems to be on that end. It seems she repeated the feat last night too, so she has become a mover. However after we checked on her this morning and saw that she had done another 180 we were further surprised to go back in to get her up for the day to find her like this...

I guess she was working on the 360 version of the move. She seems to be squirming all over the place. Silly girl! I wonder where she will be tomorrow morning when it is time to get up. At least I know she will still be IN the crib. I'm just not sure at which end.
