Today, Violet is four months old, on the nose. It went by in a flash. I know everyone says these things and they are right! Time is a funny thing, you know...so let's see. Violet babbles (think Da-da-da-da-da!) and drools and is almost sitting up. She is a roller. Her eyes are a deep green now with specks of brown. She finally loves bathtime! She is wearing 6 month clothing. (Very long limbs, like her folks!) When she wears disposable diapers, she is in size 3! Yikes! She is super active and likes to scoot across the floor during tummy time. She is pretty much a pro at this. It is almost scary to think that she will be crawling soon, but exciting at the same time.
Lately, we like to wake up when Daddy goes to work to be changed and fed. Then, we nap for about an hour or two. (Sometimes longer!) Then it's go time! From playing in her jumper, on her playmat and her StepNPlay piano; her tummy time mat, her Bumbo and just chatting with her friends in her RockNPlay and laughing her head off at the dogs and cat, she has a pretty jam-packed day. Repeat, eat, get changed...repeat, repeat, repeat...bedtime! (Baths are every other nightish.) She sleeps anywhere from 7 to 10 hours per night. Once in awhile she has a bad time. She is teething and drooling like crazy, but for the most part, this is her routine (if you could call it that) for now. Her 4 month appointment is next week, so stats are up in the air.
Here's a little early Valentine's poem from the wee one, to you, faithful and loyal blog viewers!
Roses are red.
Violet is cool.
No bib can impede
This river of drool.
