So Busy

Sorry it's been so long since the last post! My life has been so busy lately since going back to work that I hardly have time to do much of anything besides work, play with Kayla, and go to bed. But she makes having a very messy house worthwhile.

She is four and a half months old. She just had a doctor visit on Monday and weighs in at 11.5 pounds! While that sounds like a lot to me, she is only in the 5 percentile! But the doctor thought she was very healthy and that we should have no concerns about her weight. She is just a petite baby!

Most nights, Kayla sleeps from 7:30ish to 5:30ish when we wake her up. On the weekends, she usually sleeps in till 7am. I am definitely not complaining about her sleeping through the night! The only issue is getting her to bed. She is not a fan of going to bed and will cry and cry. Hopefully she gets used to that soon because it's hard on her mommy to hear her cry!

She just learned last week how to roll from her tummy onto her back. She can sit up pretty well with a little bit of support. She's discovered her feet and toes and every so often we catch her trying to eat her toes. We're thinking of starting her on rice cereal soon! We're just waiting for her to get over her cold and cough. All three of us have been sick multiple times this winter and we can't wait for spring so we can open up the windows and get some fresh air.

Just the other week, Jordan and I signed up for our last big vacation for awhile. In October, we are going on a cruise....without Kayla.... I'm going to miss her so much!! We're already planning on bringing lots of pictures of her to hang up in our cabin.

Here are some pictures to enjoy! I'll post a few more soon hopefully!

Happy bug!
