4 Months Old!!!

As of 10:59 this morning, it's been exactly 4 months since Rylee made her entrance into the world. I've said it before and I mean it, she COULD NOT possibly be loved anymore. She is absolutely perfect in every way. Parents with older children warn me often "It goes by so fast". Merle and I were talking the other day, and at this point anyway, it seems like she has always been here. We can't remember life B.R. Here is a few words from Rylee about how it feels to be 4 months old...


I bought Rylee a special 4 month dress, I think she looks great in blue. Just laying on her tummy saying "Hello".




Just a little spit running out of her mouth. This is pretty typical these days. She has to wear a bib. I call her a geek, lol.
The highlight of Rylee's 4 month old day was letting her try rice cereal for the first time! I was soooooo excited. We went shopping yeterday for her first bowls and spoons. She LOVED it! She tried to eat the bowl right out of Daddy's hand!
Here she is perfecting her bubble blowing skills.
And standing! She is crazy good at this. She looks too mini to be standing!
We were trying to get a good picture of her by the flowers. The first picture sums up the attempt. She says "No".
She is starting to be able to hold herself up a bit in her exersaucer.
She hates tummy time a little bit less each time. Look how high she gets up now.
Flying on Mommy's legs. Weeeeee!! More spit dripping. She got it directly in my mouth the other day. It was awesome. Daddy thought it was funny.
Here is video of princess doing her mini push-ups like a big girl.


This week was pretty uneventful. Daddy was home a lot, which was really nice. We got to spend a lot of family time together. We went shopping at the Aurora Farm Outlet Mall. Rylee made out on that trip! Tons of clothes including 2 pair of 6M Osh Kosh overalls. SOOO cute!! Daddy got shoes and Mommy got a t-shirt and a slush puppy. Rylee got a lick of my slushy....mmmm. Yesterday we took Rylee to the West Side Market. We bought lots of good, cheap meats fruits and veggies and Rylee got to see her first pig in pieces, sick.

Rylee continues to wake a lot at night but were working on it. I am reading the No Cry Sleep Solution Book that many Moms swear by. I honestly don't expect much, but what the heck. I was soppose to keep a wake log last night but can't really make sense of it this morning. I am pretty sure she had a 3 1/2 hour stretch last night because I don't feel like I'm gonna throw up.

Might be joining Nikki and family at the Lake today, depending on what time Rylee naps this morning. Have a great week everyone!
