Happy 4 months to this little (or not so little) one! I've been back to work for about 4 weeks now and we're all starting to find our groove. It took her awhile to figure out the bottle thing but she's now a pro and we're so thankful for that. I'm also so grateful that my job is flexible and I can work from home some days.
Josie is a pretty easy going baby overall. Right now she is eating well, napping well (taking 2 naps most days), and sleeping well at night (usually up once but sometimes twice). This month has brought out the best in her for sure! She's smiling all the time and laughing more too. This month she also started rolling. She has rolled from front to back and back to front a couple times. She's generally a really happy baby but has a bit of a witching hour around 5 pm (an hour or so before bed). She likes her swing and play mat, enjoys putting her hands and toys in her mouth, and loves watching her brother be his goofy 2-year old self.
I LOVE this age so much. She's just a ball of soft, pudgy, smiley love and I could kiss her cheeks all day long (and sometimes do). Keep being awesome Jo!
Update: She had her 4-month doctor's appointment at 4 months and 1 week and weighed in at a whopping 17 lbs, 4 oz and is 26" long. Over 90th percentile for both! They said she looks great.
