4 Months

Here we are at 4 months, and for today, I'm wishing she was older. I know, that's an awful thing to do, since I realize she'll be big soon and I'll want her to be little again. However, for almost a week now she's gone back to waking up every 2 hours to eat or just be snuggled. But, it's hard for her to fall back into a deep sleep without eating. Yikes. I'm so tired! She slept in her car seat last night and slept about 5 hours straight. I am seriously contemplating letting her sleep in there every night! We go to the doctor on Friday for her check up, so we'll see what she has to say. Daycare said she's having a hard time sleeping there too. Maybe she has some fluid in her ears from her cold. Who knows.

Despite getting no sleep, she's still a happy baby, and is so smiley and fun. She loves her Exersaucer and is having fun learning how to hold and put toys in her mouth. Her neck is strong and she hates to lay down - that's way too boring! You can't really tell in these pictures, but she has this funny patch of hair on the side of her head that I want to cut. It looks like an old man comb over but on the side. Hopefully it falls out! We really didn't do much this month since we were all sick. I'm better now, she still has a bit of a stuffy nose when she wakes up though. We're looking forward to spring and being able to take the dogs for lots of walks. I'll post an update Friday after the doctor with her weight and maybe a solution to our sleeping problem!
