4 Months Old

Baby Updates:

(I will try and stay better updated with maybe a little more info. The holidays were a little busy :-)

So about a week before Christmas, Jocelyn rolled over from back to tummy. It's really rather funny to watch because she rocks and grunts and kicks her feet. :) Here's a video for giggles =)



Oh yeah, did you check out those thighs?? LOL Her daddy teases about this so much and shows off those baby rolls to everyone! :)

Here's my FAVORITE!!!! Grandpa got her to giggle on Christmas Eve, it was so cute. Baby giggles are so contagious!



She has recently started this squealing business, which is absolutely hysterical! lol Sometimes she gets so loud she's practically screaming.



Don't you just want to eat those cheeks???? AHH!! Poor child. I just can't seem to be able to leave them alone.

So we had her 4 month well baby checkup last week. She measured 90th percentile for height at 25", and 95th percentile for weight :-) at just over 16 lbs. lol And she's hitting a major growth spurt this week, I wouldn't be surprised if she's already even longer and another pound heavier! Anyway, she's still measuring 2 months ahead of average girls her age. Which seems right. She's fitting perfectly into size 6 month clothing. We pretty much skipped size 3-6 months....I should have left tags on some of those outfits.

I can't believe how big she's getting. It's so incredibly much fun watching her play and learn everyday. She's actually sitting really well on her own already. She teeters to the sides still, but she's already learning to use her hands to catch herself and to use them for support. We're not good about tummy time because she's gone back to hating it again. But the few times we put her down, she's figured out how to scoot on her knees! She hasn't figured out how to lift her upper body, so hopefully crawling is still a couple months out yet.

We have made some really great friends in our area. We meet with 3 other mommies and baby girls about once a week. It's so great because we know that our kids (the 4 of us) will have a few friends to grow up with while we're here. It'll be fun watching them grow up together. We actually had a birthday party for two of the babies turning 1. So that was fun!



Here are some recent pictures from the last couple of weeks:







Her new thing is playing with her feet which is also pretty funny :)
