Months 3/4

{Weight}
9 pounds 10 ounces - at 3 months
10 pounds 12 ounces - at 4 months

{Favorite things}
Sitting up, standing, Iris the butterfly, warm baths, being naked, Otis Redding and of course, Mama and daddy.

{Special talents}
Shrieking and squealing, blowing raspberries, coughing for fun

{Favorite Pastime}
Being naked and laying on a blanket on the floor getting your wiggles out, riding face out in the front-pack.

{Sleep}
Still awesome. Auntie Elizabeth can usually get you down for a nap in the afternoon and at night you sleep from about 8:30 p.m. to 8-9ish in the morning. Sometimes daddy has to wake you up to get to Auntie Elizabeth's house!

{Crying}
Only when you're uncomfortable or hungry. You don't have a "witching hour" anymore, but if you get too hungry, too tired or too overstimulated then you're a nightmare to try to comfort. Luckily that doesn't happen too often!

{Dislikes}
Socks, being too hot, sitting in your carseat for too long, mama ignoring you for any amount of time when you haven't seen her all day. If I look away for just a few seconds you pout and cry, when I look back at you you shriek and smile.

{Likes}
Naked time, bath time, laying by yourself on the floor, blowing spit bubbles and the soundtrack to 'Singjn' in the Rain' which your daddy sings to you to calm you down.

A boycott on pacis

While it hasn't happened yet, I am waiting for the day when the bird resists her pacifier and instead prefers to soothe with her new found soothie. Behold, the THUMB!
