Month 4

 Kara is 4 months old and 13 lbs.  She is now rolling over both ways and scooting around on blankets and such.  She's gone through a growth spurt and started waking up once or twice at night to eat.  She never opens her eyes at night, just wants to nurse in her sleep.  In 4 months she has not once needed to be rocked back to sleep or ever woken up at night.  She always eats in her sleep and goes right back down in her crib.  I'm pretty amazed at her sleeping abilities.  She's settling into more of  3 nap a day routine with the morning and evening being an hour or more and the afternoon is closer to 3 hours.  She usually sleeps at night from around 9pm to 8am.  The girls still want to hold her every chance they can get and help change diapers and dress her.  They also love to push her in the stroller on family walks.

Fun on the 4th!

 Cute cousins!

 The next day we headed to the lake for some boating with friends.  Trent had to work so I took the 4 girls by myself.

 This is how she boated--the whole day.  This girl just slept the day away and enjoyed the warm summer air.

 Girls started getting brave.

So much fun!  We really had a great time on the lake!

Month 3!

Kara is now 12 lbs. 3 oz. and still sleeping through the night.  She is rolling over from her back to her tummy and then gets quickly upset and wants to be turned back over.  She went camping for the first time, came along to several swim meets, field trips, end of school parties, and been to 4 movies in a theater now.  She is just starting to smile and it lights up her whole face.  She loves to be held and rocked and often I can't look at her while nursing because she'll pull off just to coo and stare at me.  She still falls asleep pretty much everytime we are in the car and is easygoing and happy 98% of the time.
