Grace is four months old!





I forgot what a biggie four months is!  She is officially out of the "fourth trimester."  I can almost see the grey matter and synapses in her brain clicking and joining together.  So funny how watching a baby grow is like physical therapy in a way.  Here's what new with this cutie.


  • 26 inches long (93 percentile), 15.13 pounds (75 percentile), and 41 /12 cm head circumference (67 percentile, but I never have understood why this is important)
  • She is SUCH a smiler.  Smiles for miles.  Every single time I pick her up from her crib she is sooo happy.
  • You won't believe it but she is a self-burping baby, literally from day one.  You sit her up and one cute burp comes out and then she is happy as a clam.  Amazing!  No reflux here at all.
  • She doesn't smile as much at her siblings but she's getting better at recognizing and being okay with them.
  • Lizzie and Moses, bye the way, absolutely adore her.  The just stare at her in love and wonder.  So fun to watch.
  • She doesn't love tummy time but she'll do it and is getting better at it.
  • She is saying sounds more and more. 
  • She has started to grab the rings above her play gym.  I think I was there when I saw it click in her brain that when she grabs and ring and pulls, she makes it move.  Cool to witness.  
Well, Gracie Lu.  I love you terribly.  You are so sweet and cuddly and I love to hold you cheek to cheek.  Smoochies!
