Lila- 4 Months

 Little Lila is 4 months old! At her appointment she was 11 lbs 12 oz (6th percentile) and 23 inches (3rd percentile). I looked it up and Davis was the exact same size at 4 months- and I don't have official stats for Chase at that age because we were on the island, but from his size right before we left I'd say he was probably very, very close to this size. So she's right in line with her brothers (Hudson was like 16 pounds at 4 months- I don't know where we got him). Even though she was really low on the growth chart, our pediatrician said he wasn't concerned since my babies have generally been quite small at this age.  She handled her shots like a champ and wasn't even fussy afterwards.

 She is my smiliest baby! She seriously smiles every time she makes eye contact with me. She's been pretty hesitant to laugh though- she'll give out a few tiny chuckles, but not any real belly laughing at this point, despite Ben's best efforts.
 She was sleeping so well and for the first few weeks of June she slept through the night every night! It was amazing. And then 4 month sleep regression hit and it got rough for a little while! As I'm writing this she's almost 5 months old and has started getting better. She's still the happiest little thing, even though her nights were rough.

 She's still wearing her 0-3 month clothing and I realized has literally worn a bow every single day of her entire life. Dressing her brings me so much joy!

I couldn't pick just one picture from this series because they were all so cute! I just love her. Also, this little outfit is special to me because I bought it for Nora six years ago! A lot of the clothes she is wearing this summer were her cousins- since all the 0-3 clothes we got as gifts were winter clothes and not super great for the 90 degree weather.



 At 4 months she's starting to be quite interested in books and toys. She's found her hands and sucks on her fingers all the time. She loves the bath and hates her carseat.

I love this little bundle of joy so much! With every baby I stress less and enjoy more (which is saying a lot because I really enjoyed every one of them).
