5 months already

So Mily will be 5 months tomorrow, which is crazy!  It seems like it was just yesterday that she was born.  I took her to the doctor in Tuesday for them to check her out because she has had horrible gas and just hasn't been herself and they said she was healthy.  I decided to switch her formula to the Isomil, which is soy, to help with her gas and spitting up.  Oh, and when we were at the doctor she weighed 13.1 pounds.  So she has gained 10 pounds since her lowest weight after she was born.  Also while we were at the doctor he told me to start trying to feed her cereal, so we have tried it once this week and she hasn't seemed that into it.  She just kept pushing the spoon out with her tongue, but towards the end she started getting the hang of it.

  A few weekends ago I bought her a jumper.  She will play in it and watch it light up, and she jumps every now and then but she doesn't quiet get it.  Her little feet don't touch the ground so I have some of my old yearbooks under her.

  She can also some what stand up with my assistance, but she has to be in the mood.  Her sleeping has stayed about the same, last night she went to bed around 10:30 and slept till 8:30, which is good.  Gradually as we incorporate the cereal into her diet she should start sleeping more.  The doctor said when she gets to eating it 3 times day then she will start sleeping from about 8 -8 or 7-7, so I am looking forward to that.  

Love doesn't make the world go 'round. Love is what makes the ride worthwhile <3

Mily is now 4 months and 2 weeks old.  I just bought her a little mat that has toys hanging down from it and she loves playing with it.  She has found her hands and plays with them and stares at them and she lifts her feet up while she is laying on her back.  She has continued to sleep amazing at night.  And she has become a big talker and loves when people talk to her.  She has become very good at saying "ohh" and she has started giggling a lot.  She loves going for walks in her stroller and rides in the car.  She also likes to cheer for the Gamecocks during their games.

Everyone has someone in their life that keeps them looking forward to another day.

Mily turned 4 months yesterday! And we had her 4 month check-up today, which went very well.  She is 23 3/4 in long and 11.10 lbs.  She is in the 31 percentile of 4 month old baby girls in length, which is amazing.  No one would be able to tell that she was 2 months early! She is developing such a social personality.  She loves attention and when people talk to her she just smiles and talks right back to them.  She has the cutest little smile, with her chubby cheeks and and dimples! She loves bath time and splashing around in the tub.  We got her pictures taken tonight, which she wouldn't smile that much while we were taking pics but when got out to the car she was all smiles! We go Sat to get some more done, so hopefully she will smile big for those.  She still loves to sleep in my bed with me, but we are getting to where she sleeps in her pack-n-play until she wakes up around 6 to eat and then I put her in my bed.  She is a good snuggler if she wants to be, but sometimes she will scoot over and if I am touching her she is squeal until I move over.  She usually ends up taking the whole bed and I have just enough room to lay on my side.  It still amazes me that she is my daughter that she is part of me.  I never thought my life would be like this but I absolutely love it and would not have it any other way.
