4 month update

I can’t believe my little Lu is 4 months old!! She is growing ever so fast, learning new things every day! Just this Sunday she rolled over all by herself. I left her on the play mat while I took the laundry out of the dryer and when I returned I found her rolled over and trying to look up at me like hey roll me back over. It was the cute-ist thing ever! She is constantly rolling over now but struggles to find a way to get back. It’s just a matter of time before she will be rolling circles around the house. We have started to feed Lucy baby cereal with just a little applesauce, banana, and rice cereal mix. We tried to feed her just the baby cereal and she wasn’t having it (as you can tell by the little clip we posted). But mixing it with the other baby food she seems to gobble it right up! It really helps her sleep through the night. I was feeding her around 7 or 8 pm and she would wake up at 1am hungry. But the real reason…I have been really REALLY looking forward to this experience. I love seeing her reaction to the taste of food.
The other day I was at the dollar store and ended up in the children’s book row. I got all excited when I saw the cute girly coloring books and the bright boxes full of crayola crayons. I had my arms full of coloring books and crayons when it hit me….when do children start to draw? I called my mom and was so disappointed when she told me “not for a while longer”. I thought well hopefully next summer she will be ready and we can get a bunch of coloring books, sidewalk chalk and bubbles. I also look forward to her helping me in the kitchen! I have a super cute design for an apron with Lucy’s name embroider on the top. We will be making loads of cookies, brownies and breads As you can tell I am more then excited for Lucy to grow up and do all these fun things with me but at the same time I don’t want her to grow up.
Lucy is the best part of my day. I love hearing her talk and giggle. When I walk into her room in the morning to get her up I sing to her and I just love seeing her smile from ear to ear with such excitement. I love it when I call her name she looks right at me and smiles. She is the best!
