4 months and counting...

It's hard to believe that it was a long 4 months ago today when this majestic little peanut popped out into the world with her scrumptious cheeks and her ability to quickly convert both parents into multiple-cups-of-coffee-a-day types. One of our favorite new 4-month tricks is laughing, which she has just started - she's only done it a few times, but she will just chuckle and chuckle and chuckle when something strikes her fancy. She also has just recently begun to develop the ability to grip things and not immediately drop them; the most amusing aspect of this skill is her never-ending routine of pulling out her own pacifier, dropping it on the floor, and then wailing in angst that some unkind soul has taken it away from her. Kyle or I pop it back in and the cycle starts again. She really enjoys eating people's hands (including her own), which involves grabbing a finger, barreling it towards her mouth, inserting, making a terrible face at the taste, and then munching away happily. Our funny little nugget of goodness... happy 4 months!

What a great pic! Ah, 4 months... that's when the fun really began for me as a mom. I hope you're enjoying parenthood as much or more than you're missing sleep! :)
