Alrighty, our little girl is 4 months old!
We had our usual photo session this morning in order to capture the perfect photo for her monthly picture. She was super happy this morning so we got a ton of great shots. It took longer to narrow it down to 2 or 3 to keep than it did to take the pictures! We already have an entire photo album of her, so I'm trying to be more selective on which pictures I keep and print out! :)
We have had some milestones occur in the last week or two. She slept through the night for the first time, a full 8 hours this week! I got up 4 or 5 times...guess it'll take me awhile to get used to sleeping through the night as well, but Nathan slept like a log. This milestone seems to have been more of a stepping stone rather than a corner stone as the next night she was up every 2 hours... little butt-head. :) I think it's a combination of the cold snap, (been having a hard time figuring out what to put her to sleep in to keep her warm but not hot- the pj's with footie's have made their first appearance and I have to say I LOVE them, so cute!) growing, and just being a baby.

The other biggie was her first real laugh. Not the short burst of a single giggle or gurgle, but a hearty belly laugh. It was hilarious! We were standing out front of the house talking to our neighbors and she just started laughing! She did it 3 times and then quit. Nathan has been able to get her to laugh once since then but that's it. I can't wait to hear it again, it just warms my soul and makes me smile.
Lastly, her cooing has become much more varied. For awhile every noise sounded the same, more of a screech than an attempt at a sound, but I just noticed yesterday that she makes 6 completely different sounds now! It's crazy, one day it's screeching, the next we have syllables! Babies are so amazing!
