Brianna - 4 Months

My happy little smiler is already 4 months old! She is such a joy to be around.

Brianna has the most chill disposition I have ever seen. She is content to "take care of herself" as long as we are near by. Not to say she is ignored by any means, but she is very low maintenance. She is not sleeping through the night yet, but we are working on it. Lately, when she wakes up in the middle of the night, she cries when I try to feed her, as if she just wants to go to sleep. Maybe her little baby brain will stop sending messages to wake up so that she can actually stay asleep. Until that happens, I am going to night wean her. I have to use a timer to make sure I don't fall asleep though. One time I thought I had been in her room for about 20-30 minutes, but it had actually been over an hour. Whoops.

She has rolled a couple of times from her back to tummy, and is trying so hard to go tummy to back as well.

She drools a LOT, but there is still no sign of teeth. I think they must be coming soon!

She is starting to show a little bit of personality. She gives me hugs and kisses, and one time after she gave me a kiss (big, open, slobbery mouth on my cheek), I thanked her and she got very excited and was so glad that she had made me happy. Well, let's just say that's what happened. Maybe she was just in a good mood.

Brianna weights 12 lb 13 oz and is 24 inches long. She is in the 50th percentile across the board. Kind of fun to have an average sized baby! It is much easier to dress her and not have to guess if something is going to fit her or not. She is very healthy and there are no concerns.

I love her blue eyes. They are a great color, and I hope they remain that shade. Her bald spots are already starting to fill in, and her hair actually looks better now than it did last month. It would be kind of awesome if we already passed the peak of her baldness!

Overall, she is a very happy and easy baby. I can't wait to see how she starts to interact with Maya. There have a been a couple of instances already that Brianna starts laughing when Maya is doing something silly. It's adorable!

Love you tons, my sweet Brianna!
