At Ashlyn's 4mo check up she was 14.4lbs (77th percentile) and 25in (87th percentile). We have been putting cereal in her bottle since she was about 2 months old. She had slept through the night several times. She even slept through the night 4 nights in a row about 3 weeks ago. Now she is getting up at around 1am and then again around 5am. She usually sleeps till about 7:30am. She takes 3 naps a day in her swing. I have tried a few times getting her to nap in her crib but she just wakes up after about an hour, awake for 2 hrs, and napping again from about 4-5pm. Her bedtime is 7pm if I can get her to stay awake that long.
She is such a good baby. She only cries if she's hungry, tired, or cold. Other than that she is ALL smiles. She is so happy and just laughs and laughs. I have really enjoyed her. We all have, even Taylor. She wakes up in the morning and runs to her sister and says, "Hi Baby Ashlyn!" It is SO SWEET! I mean just melt my heart why don't ya! Taylor does so well with Ashlyn, when she pays attention to her.
But Ashlyn is getting so big, so fast. I put away her newborn clothes and brought out her 3-6mo clothes. For some reason we just didn't have a lot of 3-6mo clothes. Then it was brought to my attention that Taylor was so big at 4 months (2lbs & 2in over Ashlyn) that we all but skipped 3-6mo clothes and went straight to 6 month clothes!
Unfortunately, we are all coming down with sore throats. Taylor picked it up from somewhere, then Ashlyn got it, Daddy started feeling bad 2 days ago, and today the coodies finally made themselves my way. Ugh, being a mom and being sick just DO NOT jive well.
I am going to try to upload some dropshot pix now. Have a nice week!
