Livy at 4 months

Just was looking through my posts that I never completed and realized I forgot to post this... Oops!

At four months Livy:

• Blows raspberries ALL the time... she is constantly soaked in drool.
• is teething big time. She gnaws on everything and her gums have widened out.
• wants to eat everything we are eating. She gets very loud and will start fussing if you don't feed her something while you eat. Even if she just nursed.
• Since she wants to eat all the time she's had a lot of new foods! She loves ice cream, mashed potatoes, and basically anything we will give her.
• She has mastered eating from a spoon. She eats up every bite of rice cereal that I give her.
• Didn't like the prune juice I was supposed to give her every day to help her go to the bathroom, so I now mix it with cereal and she LOVES it.
• Rolls over in both directions
• still doesn't like tummy time. In fact as I write this she flipped herself to her back and is much happier.
• is a VERY happy baby. She smiles at everyone but still only likes to be held by a select few if Momma isn't near. She melts down quickly if she realizes I'm not there and a stranger is holding her. If I am there she'll tolerate someone holding her for about 5 minutes.
• LOVES LOVES LOVES her sister. Addie keeps her laughing and they laugh over the silliest things.
• Is a bit of a chunk. She got the chunkiest little cheeks and bummy. I love to kiss those little chubby cheeks! She looks like she's got food stuffed in them.
• Weighs 14.6 lbs and is 25.75" tall. That puts her in 50th% in weight and 80th% height! Her head is 16" which is 25th%. If she keeps growing at this rate she'll pass up Addie! Addie was at this weight at around 8 months old and Addie currently weighs only 24.4 lbs fully dressed (3rd%) and is 35.5" (10th%).
• Did okay with the 4 month shots. 2 months shots were awful on her. We had sleep disruptions for about 2 weeks when she didn't want to nap and woke up at night for her paci, but we seem to be back to normal now. (Addie had to have shots too and hobbled around for 2 days begging to be carried and crying constantly but then would be fine if we offered to go play outside or something else fun... silly girl!)
• Isn't too interested in the TV. I don't really let Addie watch TV much anymore so it's never on for Livy to see.
• Is getting better on working with her hands. She can get her paci in her mouth most of the time now without too much trouble.
• Still sleeps swaddled... if I don't swaddle her she doesn't sleep for long.
• Has been working out of her swaddle sack at night and waking herself up. So the past few nights I've made it a little tighter and she's slept great! It'd make me claustrophobic but she seems to be very comforted by it.
• Can drink from a straw! She was doing great with water in a cup with a straw until I gave her a sip of lemonade and she really didn't like it and now likes to chew on the straw more than she likes to drink out of it... sigh. Maybe I'll use the trick I did with Addie and give her a straw with milkshake to get her to stop chewing and start drinking more. :)
