4-Months Old

At 4-months, Dakota Kate...
...discovered splashing in the tub! She loves to soak her Mommy while lounging in the tub. And look at my chub-a-wub! Her naked bath photo is so funny because her rolls cover everything necessary.
...will temporarily let me put her down. We tried out the fancy MamaRoo bouncer and it didn't work, but Scott suggested that we try a swing to see if the swifter movements might lull her to sleep. It worked for about a week. And then our sweet friends Leah, Todd & Carson lent us their Jumperoo and it's been working like a charm. This little girl just wants to "stand" and keep busy!
...changes every day. Her eyes are still a steel grey but some days I think she looks so much like me and then others she looks like Mason's clone, and then she'll give me a look and I think she's her Daddy in an Asian-girl form.
...is still rolling everywhere!

Between months 3-4, Dakota Kate...
*went to work with Daddy. I think she was a hit!
*received her 2nd round of shots. FOUR pricks in her legs! She had a fever and was fussy for a while afterwards. I'm not looking forward to the next vaccinations.
*visited her cousin in Madison, AL. We had a great time playing, but the ride back home was another story. We're going to have a wait a while for road trips longer than 45 minutes again!
*traveled to Cleveland to see Maw and Nana at Nana's home.
Oh this little girl has been very busy!
At our 4-Month well visit: She's 24.75" in length, 13 lbs, 6 oz in weight, and 16.25" head circumference. Steadily 50th percentile across the board. A stark difference from her brother. And she's well into 6-month clothes too so it boggles my mind!
