Happy 4 month birthday

That baby girl, Sallie Rose, is growing up right before my eyes. She is 4 months old this week. She is changing little by little everyday. She must be having a growth spurt, because she is definitely a lot fussier than usual. She hardly ever cried before, now she is really starting to take after her Dad, grouchy. No, she is still a very good and easy baby, but not as easy as she used to be. I guess 4 months of baby bliss is enough. She has to grow into her stages, I don't know that I am ready for that yet.

With the grouchiness comes all the beautiful smiles and giggles. She is still so happy in the mornings and smiles now when one of us walks in the room. She plays with her toys, tries to roll over, and loves when we read her books. She is very interested in patterns and colors. She really enjoys other children too. We took her to a Kindermusik class this past Saturday and she loved seeing the other kids. She is a social butterfly.
I don't know how much she weighs these days, but she is still pretty small. She just started wearing her 3-6 months clothes and they are a little too big. She must be long though, because some pants are too short. Kevin always comments on how big her feet are. If they are any preview about her height, then she is probably going to be tall. We'll see.

She is with Susan everyday while we are at work and I believe they are having a really good time. Susan has been great about keeping me and Kevin in the loop of Sallie Rose's daily life. We are really lucky to have such a great person and such a great situation for Sallie Rose.
Here are some pictures from this weekend on our Staycation.







Here she is the morning of her 4 month birthday. Happy as a clam! I surprised her with the camera. I wish I could have gotten a shot of her expression after the flash. Love it!!!

Funny. Vin was the opposite. Was in 3-6 months at about 2 months old but he's 9 months and those 3-6 months would probably be too long for him. I tell myself he's just compact.
