Our little girl is now 4months + ! Time has gone by so quickly. It has been so fun watching her come into her own - seeing her personality shine through. She has been a joy to interact with - smiling and laughing and seeing her little habits forming like trying to shove anything possible into her mouth whether it be her own fingers, our hands, toys, blankets, or mommy's hair:) We are still working on tummy time - it is certainly not her favorite but she is doing really well - just need to work on the rolling over. She cracks us up because she is good at displaying how she is feeling - happy, hungry, sleepy...not to mention cranky - she has such a fake whiny cry sometimes it makes us laugh - I think it makes her more mad because we don't take it too seriously:) She remains a major cuddle bug and loves to be held (her mom and dad might have something to do with that). The newest thing with her is truly recognizing people and knowing when she isn't with someone she knows and possibly recognizing that her parents aren't around - this has been discovered after some evening crying sessions when mom and dad were gone and when strangers hold her. We can't help but feel some happiness that Ella loves us and misses us but sad that she gets upset - lets hope that this is just our perception and she won't start separation anxiety yet.
We had her latest Dr appt. this past Monday and she weighed in at a whopping 16lbs 3 oz (90th percentile) and 26 inches (95th percentile). She had a clean bill of health and the Dr gave us the okay to begin a tsp of rice cereal 2x per day! Anyways - here is some updated random pics of our doll.
Up close and personal
Her best friend Macie (we can always get great belly laughs when she is around)
Saying her prayers during her nap:)
Acting all prim and proper
"What are you doing with that camera again Mom?"
Another cute new habit - rubbing her eyes when she is tired
Can't get enough of those tasty fingers
We almost peed our pants laughing at how funny she looks at these sunglasses Brad's Mom gave her - they are meant for this summer - but we couldn't resist trying them on her with all the sunny days we had this week:)
I am not really a ribbons and bows type of mom but I may seriously need to reconsider!
A few seconds of joy on the tummy!

what a cutie-pie. she's really growing up. so fun to hear all those things that she's doing too. Great pics, Jill.
OMG...i LOVE THE HEADBAND! :) Please have her wear it more :) sooo stinkin' cute!
She is so beautiful! I love the picture of her "praying"...how sweet! Praise God for your healthy, happy baby girl!
The headband one is so cute!! And don't worry that she's still working on rolling--Layla didn't even start rolling at all until 4 months and still doesn't roll all the time. Layla has just never been a fan of her tummy either--I still put her on her tummy and she just rolls to her back. She's never going to learn to crawl that way!! But o, well, they all learn at their own pace:-)
she is too cute and those sunglasses....wow mom haha
I agree- the bow looks TOO cute on her! She is such a little sweetie! I just LOVE her cheeks. I was telling Brad today, that, Isabella had cheeks just like that! Avery's were way bigger, lol!!!
I love the pic of her in those sunglasses. Too fun. She's growing way too fast. Before you know it she'll be on the go.. enjoy these moments as they pass way too quickly.
