4 Months Old.... Already?

Well, Kalina is now 4 months old! Oh my how time has gone by so fast. I remember the day I went into the hospital to get induced. I was so scared, but excited that I was going to finally meet my little girl, my daughter. And now 4 months later, I can't believe I have this wonderful little girl in my life. Kalina wakes up beside me every morning, and when I look over I almost tear up looking at her gorgeous smile. Motherhood is the best feeling a woman could ever ask for.

She came out of the hospital weighing only 7 pounds and now she is almost 14 pounds. She measured a long 69cm yesterday at our doctors appointment. Very tall for her age Dr. says.

What Kalina can do at 4 months!
  • Roll onto her side. ALMOST a full roll over but not quite yet.
  • Grabbing onto everything, including momma's soup bowl that ended up on the floor.
  • Sleeping through the night. 9:00 - 10:00 am with one feed around 7ish
  • Eating oatmeal every couple of days.
  • Giggling more and more each day.
  • Making strange with people. Even Daddy, Nana and Papa, don't worry it will pass!
  • Discovering her own body parts, including her head.
  • Bathing like a big girl in the big tub.
  • Amusing herself when left alone. (I'm still there don't worry)

Thanks to everyone who is in Kalina's life. Each of you are helping my child grow, learn and love.

Thank- you

Melissa, Karl, Kalina and Tallie

Well, thank You for giving us the most precious gift of all. I thought having you was my ultimate joy in life, I couldn't imagine it getting even better.

Kalina is so precious to all of us and each day we share with her brings us even closer to you my darlin daughter.

I see so much of you in her. With each giggle, each smile, each new thing she does. She doesn't want a miss a thing, and lord you neither did you and you still don't *smiles*

Your right being a mother is the ultimate joy in a womans life but I'll tell you, being a grandmother is right up there.

Thank you babygirl for this precious gift!

Happy 4 months Nana's precious girl!!

Love you both *hugs and kisses*
Your Mom, Kalina's Nana
