4 Months Old

Presley's third month was a very quite month. There were not a lot to report for Presley. However, her forth month has been very busy. She has grown and changed and learned so much. I love watching her meet new milestones. I love watching her determination to do something new. I love making her smile and laugh. I really try to find pleasure in everything that has to do with her, but I could do without the waking up two and three times a night. She was doing so well sleeping at night, but recently things have gotten tough. She usually goes down around 8ish and is up at 2 and 6. Sometimes she even wakes up at 4. UGH! Her napping isn't much better. She loves to nap in my arms, and I love for her to nap in my arms. BUT at 4 months, it is time to learn to nap in her crib.

Here are some of the ways that Presley has spent her time this month:

spitting up,

going to the beach,

smiling a lot,

sitting in her Bumbo seat,

holding her head up during tummy time,

sitting in her Exasaucer and drooling,

grabbing her toes,

and talking.

Yesterday she finally rolled over from her tummy to her back. She is very close to going from her back to her tummy. She still needs to sleep swaddled, but she is like Houdini and can get out of every swaddle. We have tried to go unswaddled, but her arms still flap uncontrollably. As I type, she is asleep with one arm out of the swaddle. Hopefully, it will work. I also need to mention how much Presley loves to watch Rebecca. Presley's face lights up when Rebecca comes into view. And Rebecca loves her baby.
