4 months

Well, 4 1/2 now. Jacqueline weighs 13 lbs & is about 24.5 inches long. Thank goodness her growth in length has slowed down some...she was outgrowing her clothes much too quickly! She's been in 3-6 mo since about 2ish months and is into some of the smaller 6-12 stuff. It's mostly her torso; she's got short legs, so her tops are getting small faster than the pants!

Developmentally....she's rolling both ways, beginning to laugh, although still only occasionally. She can grab things held in front of her and she puts everything in her mouth! She's drooling like crazy and likes to gnaw on her hands (or mine) so I think she's beginning to teethe, although I think it'll still be a while before we'll see any teeth. Still sleeping through the night (knock on wood) but her bedtime is later than Christian's was at this age. He'd established a 7:30 bedtime of his own accord (i.e. after that feeding, he wouldn't wake up till the morning) but she doesn't go down till 10 or 11pm. however, she'll often wake to eat around 6 or 630, and then go back to sleep till 8 or 9 (which means I get to go back to sleep too, unless it's a Tuesday or Thursday and I have Christian home with us!) She wakes happy too - I'm usually awoken by her babbling to herself, waving her arms and kicking her legs, although I'm sure that it would progress to full on cry if that didn't work.

She's really starting to notice everything around her and finds it all very interesting. She's very vocal - lots of coos and gurgles, starting to make a lot of consonant sounds...ga & gee being the prominent sounds these days. Christian was a very quiet baby, hardly ever babbled, so I can't wait to see how her language develops. We'll be signing with her as well, just starting to do a few now (mainly "milk").

She still looks a lot like Christian at times, but she looks different too. Here's a 4 month comparison shot. His face was much more round and his cheeks chubbier.
