{embrace} the Camera: 4 months

So this is what I was doing 4 months ago today. 






Meeting my baby girl for the first time.
(don't you LOVE the nurse's face. She was seriously my fave.)




So hard to believe. I never knew life could be so good. This has been by far my favorite month. I wish I would have known the first 3 months how GOOD it gets... sleepless nights, scream fests & listening to the dyson 5 hours a day would've been a little easier to take!


She's now a whopping 12lb 7 oz (25%) & 24 inches long (50%). HUGE if you ask me!

What's new:
Laughing. She loves to giggle and crack herself up. She'll do just about anything for a laugh.
Feet. She found 'em & she's obsessed.
Naps. WAHOO THANK YOU JESUS! The girl can nap. 
Talking. Lots and lots of "talking"
Neck control. She's holding her head high like a big girl.
Sitting. Okay, not really. But she loves to be propped up on the couch next to me. Makes her feel like a big girl
Grabbing. She grabs everything in sight. I'm quickly learning what I have to keep out of her reach.

LOVES:
Singing... any time I sing a little song she chimes right in. 
Her Tongue....she pretty much sticks it out an chance she gets.
Splashing...bath time just got a whole lot more interesting.
TV... seriously don't judge. I try hard to keep her away from it, but it doesn't matter where we are she'll find a TV and is happy as a clam.
College football. Again the TV thing. We watch a lot of it around here. We're pretty sure she understands it. After all she IS brilliant.
Other babies... this is a new one, but she loves looking at babies and smiling at them.

DISLIKES:
Night time. Bedtime takes f.o.r.e.v.e.r. Seriously forever. 


Oh Campbell Hope, I love you so much. I never knew I could love someone the way I love you. You have changed us in so many wonderful ways. It is such a joy to see you grow. Your daddy claims I treat you like my little doll. It's not true. Well, maybe a little... I'm so happy God chose us to be your parents.
