4 months

I can't believe our baby girl is 4 months old already! She is growing & changing & learning new things every day. About a week before we left for vacation, she learned how to roll from her back to her tummy, which shocked me since she still hates tummy time. On Friday, she learned how to go from her tummy to her back, which I think she liked more! Mommy is her favorite nap place (for naps that last longer than 20 minutes), and she's been a bit clingy lately. She still fights naps (which she is doing right now). She is still very chatty & plays with all sorts of vowel sounds, but not too many consonant sounds (sorry, the SLP in me overanalyzes). She is one long skinny baby! Pants-wise, her newborn stuff still fits her, but her dresses are too short. And trust me, she's not starving! And I am convinced - who ever said you can't spoil babies by holding them too much had no idea what they were talking about. She always wants to be held!

Well, I have much to do today. Once Madelyn gets up from her nap (shouldn't be long), I need to run to Publix so we can finally have some food, straighten up the house a bit, and work on finding a hotel in New Orleans. I am going to a conference in November (I know it seems early, but the hotels near the convention center are already booked...yikes!). We also are looking at a new coffee table & dining room...we'll see about that. And finally, pray an opportunity opens up. Not going to say too much about it now, but it would be great for all of us.
