Sophie 4 Months

Sophie will be 4 months old tomorrow. I can't believe how fast the time has gone. This little girl is growing up so quickly. And I love spending every second with her. Here are some of her accomplishments this month:

• Sophie can stand up like a pro. She loves standing, although she often looks like a hula dancer with her wobbly hips.
• She recently started enjoying smashing her face against my cheek. Sometimes she turns her head to slobber on my face. Now whenever I put her on my shoulder, the way she used to like sleeping, she will just smash faces. Usually it is cute, but she presses really hard and my neck starts hurting after a while.
• On Thanksgiving Sophie learned that she can make a high-pitched squeal. Now she does it all the time. Needless to say, that was something that I was not grateful for on Thanksgiving.
  
• Over the last week Sophie has been sleeping longer through the night, but not as long in the morning. She has gone from about 9pm to 6-6:30am without feeding, but then she wants to get up and play.
• Sophie does not like eating breakfast. She is so excited to get going and play in the morning that she will not eat.
• Sophie's hair is getting too long for a Mohawk anymore. I have tried brushing it down, but she has a cowlick in the back where it always sticks up at crazy angles. My hairstyling abilities are still hopeless.
• Sophie has finally learned how to suck on her Binky. She can keep it in all by herself which makes our lives so much easier.
• Sophie has become a drool-monster. She is always trying to suck on anything and everything, but her hands and fingers are her favorite.
• She is finally starting to become interested in toys--a tiny bit. She can grab at them if they are held directly in front of her. Her favorite toy is mommy. Her second favorite toy is her burp cloth.
  
• I am so lucky to have my beautiful and funny baby girl. She is my whole world. She makes daddy laugh all the time and has us trained to meet her every demand.
