Camille at 4 Months

This sweet gift from the Lord is 4. Months. Old.  Oh my gracious!  Ya know when babies are born how their fingernails are paper thin?  So thin that you can bite them to an appropriate length?  Well 2 days ago, I had to cut this baby's nails with nail clippers.  I almost cried.  Crazy, I know, but I cannot believe that this sweet precious baby is old enough for that.  It doesn't help that she is the caboose.  I know that every "last" that I have with her will actually be the last with any baby I will ever have, and I am taking it kinda hard.  Anyway, I can't imagine a more happy child to be the baby of the family. When I think of words to describe her, easy, precious, happy, pleasant, and adorable come to mind.  She is an absolute delight.  Some updates on the angel bug....

Teeth:  None yet, Praise the Lord!!

Tricks:  My baby, 2 weeks ago, when she was 3.5 years old, decided she was going to start rolling all over the place.  I'm not going to lie, I really don't know how seeing how she has had little to no tummy time.  But, she is just rolling around all over the place.  It kinda breaks my heart.  She is trying to sit up, and loves her toys.  Her smiles come so easily.  She talks constantly, laughs a lot, and mimics the movement of our mouths.  Too much, too quickly.  It is amazing how much I am NOT in a rush for this one to hit milestones.

Size:  This sweet girl is seriously making up for lost time in the size department.  She is in 3 month clothes (completely grown out of newborns-que the tears), size 1 diapers, and those little cheeks are so sweet and chubby.  We couldn't get her 4 month appointment until January 5th, so I'll post official stats then.  I'm not going to lie, I like to be prompt in doctor's appointments so that I can have accurate weight/length stats, but it isn't going to happen this month.  I would like to note, sweet Camille, that if you are reading this and you are 30, your late appointment isn't because mommy didn't try.  I tried scheduling your 4 month appointment while at your 2 month appointment, but they did not have the doctor's schedule that far in advance.  I do think that she is about 11 pounds, but gaining rapidly!

Eating:  Camille decided she wasn't going to use the shield anymore, and it has drastically decreased her feeding time.  She went from eating about 45 minutes to eating about 15.  It is SOOO much easier for me.  I'm not sure how much she is getting, but when she gets a bottle she gets about 4 oz.  We haven't even thoght about baby food, not even on the radar!

This angel is all smiles most of the time.  Adore her!!

This love baby is already in a bouncy seat.  How can it be?  Time slow down!!
