Here you go!!!

HA! She did it!

While in the play pen, lying under the floor gym, Evelyn kicks and talks. Mommy strolls over and helps her roll over to her tummy for a little Tummy Time. However, Evelyn wants to lean to the right and look up at a toy. With both arms facing the left, she is twisted with her head to one side and her hips laying flat on the floor. Soon enough she starts to lift the leg that would send her rolling. After a few tries, she does it and "boom" she is flat on her back, all by herself! Mommy starts "whoo-hoo"-ing and "yeah baby" yells, clapping and smiling! Daddy missed it...he was in the other room. The first thing he asks when we go to tell him "Are you sure you did not help her a little?" Yes, I am sure!

Go, Evie!!

4 Months Old

Hello All! I am so glad you stopped by. Today I want to share Evelyn's 4 month update.

Yesterday, we went to the doctor's office for her physical and shots. The doctor gave her a clean bill of health! 13 lbs, 10 oz. and 26 in. long now. When the nurse gave her the shots, she did not appear to register the first one, but the second one made that scream come out. She took it all like a trooper.

My, how fast it goes! I find myself counting down till bedtime, but having to remind myself that means another day older. She has been using her lungs to share sounds and has been making "ma ma" sounds a lot. :) I have been able to get out a few more giggles, too. She is grasping with intention and still trying to roll over. While we are still working on being on the tummy for longer than a few minutes, she is progressing at a good rate.

I will post some more pics later, but now I need to get her out of the play-yard for she is getting frustrated with the scenery!

Love to you all!
