4 months old










Cassidy turned 4 months last week! She is such a sweet little girl. We feel so blessed to have her in our family. She has recently started reaching for toys and putting everything in her mouth. She had her well baby check up today and weighed 12 lbs 12 oz and was 24 inches long. She got 2 shots and an antibiotic - ear infections again. She is in the 25% for length, the 10% for weight and the 5% for head circumference. I can't believe how fast these 4 months have gone by. Knowing that she is probably our last I don't want her to grow up. She has been the best newborn and I really wouldn't mind keeping her that way. I love the little stretch she does, with her back arched and her little bum sticking out with her arms over her head and her fists all balled up. And nothing beats the way she smells after a bath, like lotion and newborn. I also love when she is sound asleep and starts to giggle. I want to hold onto these moments as long as possible. At the same time I am excited to see her personality develop and see her accomplish new things as she grows. We went through so much to get her here and healthy and it was all worth it. We love you Cass!

playing with her hands
swinging
her siblings trying to make her laugh
giving kisses
Hates:

being put in the car seat
bright sunlight
helium balloons

She is just precious! Did you take those pictures? They are really good! I can't wait to see her and actually be able to hold her this time!

I can't believe it has been four months already. Crazy. She is so cute. I am with you on keeping them small longer. Will is growing up too fast as well.
