Weight - somewhere in the neighborhood of 13lbs
Clothes - we're still wearing 3 month clothes, I think we'll get at least another month's worth out of this size
Diapers - we haven't been in disposables for over a month now - we're fulltime in cloth diapers at the moment
Sleep - still sleeping through the night :) What's the secret? Swaddling! We reswaddled her around 3 months, and since then, she's been sleeping like a champ. A few days ago we tried unswaddling her, but that was a no-go.
Eating - Still nursing :) I like to feed her about every 3 hours (6x a day). My parents babysat last night and gave her a 4oz bottle. She drank it all, but cried the whole time (she hadn't had a bottle in over a month). We'll start solid food soon!
Likes - bath time, sitting up like a big girl, smiling, visiting people, peekaboo, hair accessories (ok, so this is a mommy thing, but with all this gorgeous hair, it's hard to resist!), shoving her fingers in her mouth
Dislikes - prolonged tummy time, not being the center of attention (hasn't changed from last month!)
New tricks - Eva learned to roll from her back to her front shortly after 4 months - in fact, these days, if you set her down on her back, she'll almost always promptly roll to her belly! She's also in the habit of barrel rolling across the family room - if I set her down while I wash dishes and come back 5 minutes later, she's half way across the room! She's also sitting independently very nicely - she can sit for several minutes, look up and down, side to side, and correct herself if she doesn't tip too far :)
We still don't have an established nap routine, and I know I say we'll work on it, so we'll work on it! We'll also work on holding things!
And pictures :)
