4 Month Updates

Hannah is doing wonderful...by our standards and her pediatrician. She is 13 pounds (40%) and 25 inches long (75%). She is eating great. She doesn't have too many rolls on her legs but she is making up for it in her length.

Hannah just rolled over this morning from her back to her stomach and then almost immediately she rolled onto her back again. I was so excited that I pick up Hannah and said, “YAY, Hannah, you did it!” She looked like she knew this was the first time and she was able to do it and then her mommy got excited about seeing it, which made her excited. Well, that is how I interpreted it.

Staying home and not watching t.v. during the day has been wonderful. I focus a lot more on Hannah and what she is doing and I also reflect on God's goodness in our home.

1-God has given us enough financially so that I can stay home without working to watch our baby.

2-God has given me a husband who encourages and supports me in being home with Hannah.

3-God has given me a beautiful and loving daughter. She has a such a sweet spirit and most of the time such a pleasant baby to be around.

I truly am thankful for my life and the people that are in it.

As soon as we get our camera back from Jonathan's parent's house, we'll update those too!
