Four Months

• Still squealing and "talking" all the time, except her squeals are getting more high-pitched
• Has rolled over a total of 6 times in the past month, all from front to back
• Is putting her hands together to grab things
• Pulls down on the toys from her play-mat all the way to her mouth
• Is laughing at both funny faces and from being tickled
• Puts everything in her mouth and is drooling a lot
• Loves watching the cats and gets really excited when they get close enough to touch
• Haven't really improved in the sleep department - still up at least two or three times a night
• Has started putting herself to sleep for some naps
• Weighs around 14.5 pounds
• Spends her Mondays with her Mammy (Clint's mom) and then the rest of the week with her nanny, Vickie

Clara & Zoe

Clara finally acknowledged the furry creatures that live in our house last week.  I think their tails caught her attention first, but she started to stare intently when she was near them. 

Of course, staring intently quickly led to wanting to touch.  Zoe was a great sport (Lola still avoids Clara), which is either because Zoe is sweet and maternal, or is just desperate for attention.

It's Raining, It's Pouring

Happy Girl

This is the best thing I've ever heard...listen, don't watch.  Momma only has so many hands :)

Merry Christmas!

Three Month Update

Well, right after I wrote her three month blog post, little girl decided to add to her accomplishments and roll over!  I guess technically we should include this as a four month development, but either way it is so fun to watch.  We missed catching the first one on video but she decided to perform for the camera later that day.  Sorry this looks funny, but it's a video using my cell phone of the video on the video camera...obviously I need to learn how to get videos off of the camera soon :)

Three Months

• So alert, active, happy and talkative...squeals and smiles all the time
• Loves putting everything in her mouth
• Her neck is very strong and she can fully push herself up on her elbows during tummy time
• So so close to rolling over from back to stomach...gets all the way to her side and then doesn't know quite what to do
• Started reaching up to grab her toys and hit them this month
• Fighting sleep at almost every nap and bedtime...I think she thinks sleeping is a waste of time now that she can see and experience so much...and again, I can't imagine where she gets that from :)
• Sleep has regressed a lot, her longest stretch at night is about 4 hours
• Weighs almost 13 pounds!

And now for what most of our pictures look like...
