4 months of joy

image

4 months ago I did not expect to have gone through what I have. Raising this little girl has been amazing and to watch her learn to things and grow is such a blessing. I could not ask for anything better.
Anyways now that I’m done being sappy and a lovey dovey mama, I just want to update on some new things Ava is doing and some new favorites. Also I’m thinking of doing monthly favorites.
She has finally mastered rolling from her back to her stomach and working on going back to her back. Sitting up alone is next on the list but she’s pretty close. Ava is starting to get a tiny bit of cereal in her bottles to introduce something new, possibly starting baby food in the next few weeks. Oh, don’t let me forget she’s grabbing anything and everything! This girl is just ready to go! She’s growing to fast on me!

1. Her little sheep aka her “baby”. Every time she’s mad or even just playing I hand her the sheep and she squeezes it to her face and just suck on him. Hehehe, she loves this little guy!

2. This fisher price rocker is amazing. I’m glad we decided to give in and buy it! Its so much better than a bouncer in my opinion. It rocks, vibrates, has like a kick stand to hold stile while I feed her and she could use it as a chair as she gets older! How cool is that!? Its definitely a must try if you have not already.

3. I wish I had a better picture but this musical butterfly has been another toy she has been loving, we hang it above her in her play pin and she just lays there grabbing it and kicking it. What’s even cooler is that the buttons are like touch to play instead of push so she can just barely touch them and they go off.

Now the mommy favorites for baby!

4. I only have one favorite this month that I love for the baby and its our new Nikon ! Its amazing to capture the beautiful pictures of my baby. Its great because I love to do monthly pictures and they look so professional and beautiful!! Also I have not mentioned but I have stated doing photography and helping others capture there valued moments! Its so fun and great to do what I love while helping others!

New sleeping arrangements

Tonight we are trying to wing ava to a bigger sleeping space. Like I’ve said in a previous post we have been using the rock n play sleeper since ava was born for her to sleep in. Unfortunately she’s getting way to big for it (tear) and just looks so uncomfortable in it. So tonight we decided to put our pack and play with the rising bassinet. I’ll insert picture.

We just remove the changing table and lye her in it. We tried putting her in this a few weeks ago to try and wing her then but she just cried and cried so of course mommy came to the rescue and put her were she was comfortable and familiar with. But tonight is the night I’m making her sleep here so she can have more space. And so far so good she’s been sound asleep!,I guess I’m just not wanting her to grow up, plus I’m used to just looking over and seeing her perfectly. But I’ll have to just suck it up. How has you other mommies experience been moving your baby into a bigger space to sleep? How did your little one react? What was your reaction? I would love to hear other stories and advice!
