she keeps growing, and growing...

...and GROWING!! Today Suri is 4 months old! She went to the doctor this morning and the doctor said she looks perfect! and she's hitting all her milestones :) Suri weighs 14 lbs 14.5 oz, in the 79% range; her head measures 16.5", the 76% range; and here's the shocker - she is 66 cm = 2 feet, 2 inches, which is the 96% range!!! She must've got the tall gene from her grandpas cause Mommy & Daddy aren't tall by any means!

This past month, we went to Bakersfield for Easter break and had a nice time with the family, hanging out with the puppies & just relaxing for once! Seth has finals this week and is super busy studying & stressing!! But I know he'll do an amazing job, because he always does :) I've been busy keeping the house in order (as orderly as possible with a baby that occupies most of my time - which I love!) Seth and I are planning on running a 5k in June, and we both got some super sweet new kicks! He got the Merrell Trail Gloves in yellow and I got the Merrell Pace Gloves in lavender! They are minimalist shoes - very thin Vibram sole - much better for your feet and extremely comfortable! And we've been walking barefoot whenever/wherever possible :) Hippie chic...lol. Just enjoying our time together & trying to be as healthy as possible.

What's Miss Suri been up to?

* rolling from her back to her tummy (video to come)
* sleeping anywhere from 3 to 6 hours at night, love when it's 6 hours :)
* hanging out in her exersaucer

* holding on to her pacifier

* playing with her stuffed animals

* being a chatterbox: "aaah" "ooo" "uuuh" "ha" along with high pitched squeals & sighs, the occasional giggle ;)
* finding her feet, plays with her toes
* grabbing at toys/blankets/hair!/skin! (ouch!)
* loves being read to before bed
* still loves to be held
* loves to watch her mobile & fans
* smiles all the time (well when she's not crying cause she's hungry) - and smiles at herself in the mirror!
* still eating every 2 to 3 hours, only breast milk - she'll start solids at 5.5 months
* falls asleep better in our arms/on the floor/in the big bed than in her crib

She's a healthy girl & such a joy in our lives! God has truly blessed our family, xoxo
