4 months old!

Can you believe it! She's 4 months old already. :-) She's obviously starting to roll over. She's going from back to belly. Really going for the movement after only like 1-2 min on her back, sometimes less. She is grabbing at almost anything. Loves to mimic your hand motions and takes most everything to her mouth. She gets super excited when someone talks to her, loves to interact with a smile. Super happy baby.
She's doing a good job at night. Most nights she goes all night, but not every night. She's still eating 5-6 oz at a time and Dr. Mangold says that is all she wants her eating since she's a breastfed baby. Maybe b/c Jonah was getting close to doing half and half bottles by this point I don't remember keeping a cap on the amount at feedings, but maybe it's b/c that was 3yrs ago too. :-) 

Happy 4 Months Hattie!

Rolling Over!

Hattie is now rolling over from Back to Belly! She's getting really good, flipping over in less than 1 min. Oh how she is growing. :-D

3 Months old

 Hey everyone! I'm 3 months old already! I've had lots of fun at daycare, with my big brother at home, and hanging out with mommy and daddy.

I like to lay on the floor and kick like crazy. I'm getting really good at scooting around on my blanket. Mommy says I can spin in a full circle... whatever that is.  I'm getting really close to rolling over. I can get all the way onto my side before I fall back over. Mommy also says I have a pretty good rub line on the back of my head. I bet that looks cute!

 I'm eating 10-15 oz a day at daycare. Most days it is 10oz, but when I get super hungry I'll eat 3x and gobble down 15oz.

Mom is keeping up with me too. She brings home between 10-15oz a day from school. She has gotten a lot of funny comments at school from people who tell her they've been asked "Why does she put a baby bottle on her door sometimes?" They say they when they tell them why, they get a funny face response. :-)

I've been napping some days for several hours and some days I get in about an hour at daycare. Those days I come home and crash after snuggling with mommy first.

I'm sleeping pretty good at night. I'm making it from 9-4:30, which is good, but mommy says it is kind of rough on her. By the time I get back in bed, her alarm is only an hour away. I will have to work on that. :-) 

 A couple weeks ago we had some family pictures taken. I'm looking forward to seeing the great pictures of me and the rest of the family. :) I was super smiley that day, but Jonah wasn't. He never wanted to show the nice ladies his great smile.

 He smiled real well here though. Mommy says he was being "cheesy."

I think he's just being weird. :-)

Until next month.

My Baby goes to Preschool

  Jonah started 3yr old Preschool on Tuesday. :-) He was super excited and reportedly had a great time. No tears were shed and he was eager to get to playing and for mom to leave. 

 What a big boy! He had a great time on Thursday as well!

Baptism

While we got ready for baptism Jonah had to make sure his horse wouldn't go anywhere while we were gone.

Life is back to the routine of school for our family. Mom started back on August 10 and Dad on August 13. Both started with students on August 16. This will be a year of school for Jonah too. He starts on August 28th. He's pretty excited about it.

Here are a few more pics of our litte one. :-)

Time for cake! 

 I'm embarrassed, they are singing to me! 

 Of course we had to have some Gray B on our cake. We originally had plans to have a cake shaped like the beloved chuckwagon, but mommy didn't get the order in soon enough. He loved this one though and it was mighty tasty too.
