Oh Maddie girl.. where do I begin? Every day I don't think I could love you more and then the next day you prove me wrong. Your smile lights up the world. Your giggle makes my heart want to explode. Your little personality buds more and more every single day. I cannot believe four months have already come and gone. With work and daycare and activities galore, the days are flying by. I just want to grab you up and freeze time. (Too bad you won't let me snuggle you these days..) We love you Maddie Jane and are SO proud of all you have already accomplished in your tiny little life.
SLEEP
You're a pro. We are over the moon at your sleeping habits. You take two good naps during the day, a couple cat naps here and there and then you regularly sleep 8:30pm - 5:30am. When you got sick this month, it wrecked your sleeping habits, but who's surprised!! As you started feeling better you picked back up right where you left off. And of course everyone has their good nights and bad nights, but a bad night for you is waking up once around 2-3am, taking a bottle, and going right back to bed, so Mama isn't complaining!! You have completely transitioned to the crib at night and take most naps there as well. Keep it up little girl!

EAT
Your appetite is picking right up! You now drink 5 ounces every 3 hours on the dot during the day. You KNOW when it's eating time, and you will make sure the WORLD knows it. My munchkin likes to eat!! We also started baby food this weekend, per the pediatrician's suggestion. We are doing one food every three days to make sure you don't have any allergies. The bananas we tried the first few days went GREAT. I mean you ate them up like you had been doing it your whole life! Now that we have moved on to green beans.. well that's a different story.. I think your favorite part about eating baby food is sitting in the high chair with Mama and Daddy while they eat dinner too!

DEVELOPMENT
Oh sweet girl, you make us laugh every day! You have found your voice and you LOVE hearing yourself. You babble and giggle all.day.long. You are doing so much better with your head control and do a really good job with tummy time now. You play so well on your play mat and in your crib.. in fact you NEED that alone play time. You are just like your Mama and SO independent. We need our space. ha! You are grabbing on to anything you can get your hands on and everything goes straight to your mouth.

LOVE/HATE
You are still so in LOVE with bath time. It is the instant cure all to your bad day. You have given up on your thumb and LOVE sucking on your pointer and middle finger. You still HATE the car most days.. every now and then you will take a snooze or be content with checking yourself out in the mirror. You LOVE Disney Jr, being naked and hanging out in your swing to unwind after a long day. You LOVE Ms. Jenny at daycare and we are oh so so thankful. And apparently you HATE green beans, but we are working on it..
