Abigail update


Our little Abi-girl  continues to be our little sunshine! She is so smiley and snuggly with such a sunny personality. What a gift! She celebrated her 4 month birthday at the beach! (Time keeps on flying by!) Here are some Abigail updates:

*Abigail is still our "Chunky-monkey-cutie-pie" tipping the scales at 16lbs 9oz (94%) and she was equally as long at 25 3/4 in  (95%)...the only thing "average" on her was her head in the 50%. 

*She is now proficient at rolling over from back-to-front and is super cute when she does so.

*She is sleeping mostly through the night- going to bed around 8pm and waking up briefly to eat around 5:30am, then sleeping until about 9am. If you can believe it, she is still in our room in her bassinet- that bassinet has been SO wonderful!

*She ate her first baby food tonight- green beans. Alathea fed her and did a great job! Abigail surprised us and didn't seem to like it- so, we will most likely be waiting until she's a month or two older and we'll try again. The way that girl eye-balls any and all food we eat, I thought she'd for sure want baby food.

*Abigail's new "love" is a sling that LiAnn is letting me borrow. She'd stay in that thing all day & night if I let her. She enjoys napping in it too!

*She is still teething...going on two months now.

*She now belly-laughs! Especially when she sees herself in the mirror or is tickled.

*She really, really adores Alathea. Her favorite thing to do is watch everything Alathea does.

*She always, always smiles. I just love it.

*She loves to snuggle. She kinda melts into your body. I really love that too :)

*She loves the beach!! Hurray for another Lechner beach bum! I'm posting our beach trip soon...

Wow, Abigail seems like such a wonderful baby! I'm not surprised Alathea adores her and vice versa. Love all the pictures! Can't wait to see the beach too. Welcome home
