4 months

I can hardly believe Ellie is already 4 months old. This is such a sweet age. She is rolling over from her back to her stomach all the time now. Occasionally she will make it back over to her back.
She pushes her self up while on her tummy and moves around by pushing on her feet. I don't think I am going to keep her still for as long as I would like! She has discovered she likes to play in the Exersaucer. She chews on anything she can get up to her mouth. I will not be surprised if she is the earliest of the three to get teeth.

She is still in size 2 diapers, but she has our grown almost all 0-3 month clothes. We go to the doctor on the 23rd, so we will see how much she has grown. She is still a good sleeper. She goes to bed between 8:30 and 9 and will usually sleep until about 6. She eats and goes back to sleep until about 8. She naps several times during the day, but we do not have a regular schedule. I am working towards it, but I am not going to really work on it until we get back from the beach. I think I am going to wait until then to start her on solids too. We have been trying to get her to drink some Pedialyte because she has had some difficulty pooping. If we can get it into her it works great.

She really is just the sweetest baby. She loves to watch what is going on around her. She grins all the time and just goes along with our crazy life.
