Fist to the mouth!!

Oh this little girl...


We are completely smitten with her!! 

And she is completely smitten with her hands, fingers and fist!!

Her goal each day is to get her entire fist in her mouth. She often succeeds and then proceeds to gag herself!!


What a cutie-patootie!!
It's hard to believe she is already 4 months old!!  I am just trying to enjoy each stage and I really love this stage when she is so happy, alert, and smiley but before true mobility sets in!! Her sleep has gotten pretty bad at night though. I'm not really loving that right now but I am sure it will pass eventually. She had her four-month checkup on Friday. She is 25 inches long and 13 pounds. She has fallen off her growth curve for weight (from 75th percentile at birth to 25th percentile now) but she is super healthy and happy and has the motor skills of an average 6 month old. Her pediatrician did say she may need to start solids soon though given the fact that she has fallen off her growth curve and her trouble sleeping through the night (she was up three times to eat last night!) I'm just not quite ready to start her on solids yet though...she is growing up too fast!!
