Blakeley @ 4 Months

How in the world is my sweet baby FOUR months old? Time has flown by. I remember getting things ready for the hospital in full panic mode thinking, "how am I going to do this?" And now I think, how did I ever function before this baby? She had made our lives complete. Time are not always easy when she's screaming so loud you have to pause the tv but then, when she smiles, it all goes away and my heart melts...completely.

Some may say a baby doesn't make marriage easier. I disagree...I couldn't be more in love with my husband. The way he talks to Blakeley, looks at her, kisses her...nothing is better.

So now, that she's four months old, she is building up and showing her fun personality! She is really starting to notice the world around her and taking everything in. Here are a few things that Blakeley is doing at 4 months: trying to hold her bottle, starting to sit up (but then falls over), taking less long naps and more cat naps, grabbing her toys and pulling them to her mouth, still loving bath time (and getting me wet while she splashes like a mad woman), addicting to my iPhone and iPad, loves Mickey Mouse clubhouse & Chugginton, starting to sleep later in the mornings.

We said that she would never, ever sleep with us. Parents...never say never. When Blakeley sleeps with us, she is so much more comfortable and practically sleeps through the night. Occasionally, she will wake up to eat but for the most part, she out until morning!

I'm so glad that we have been able to celebrate a couple of holiday with her so far. We came home on the 4th of July and our parents came over and cooked out and Halloween where she was the cutest little owl..but she fell asleep before we made it to our first stop :) Now, for Thanksgiving and Christmas!..out 2 most favorite holidays! We are going on a trip next week to Gatlinburg...she first long car ride. We leave Thanksgiving night and come back Sunday...then I'm off the whole next week! This is a MUCH needed vacation! I can't wait to spend 11 long days with my sweet baby!
