4 months!

The end of May Eva turned 4 months old!  She went to the doctor for her vaccinations and to be weighed and measured.  She sure is a petite thing.  She only weighed 11 lb. 2 oz. and was 24 1/4 inches long.  She's about the 35-50th percentile for height, but about the 5-10 percentile for weight. 

Eva - 4 months old!

 She sure didn't like the shots AT ALL and cried for a good little bit even afterward.  Later she developed a little bit of a fever and really just wanted held and comforted for about two days...which is a little hard to do when you have 2 older brothers to look after as well.

Speaking of...

 These boys sure love their little sister and love trying to make her laugh and smile.

 

I love the picture above as it seems Eva is the only one who really cooperated.  But this is definitely the stage and personalities of the other two!

Cute little baby feet/toes while sleeping.

 We decided to get out the ExerSaucer to give Eva somewhere to play instead of always laying on the floor.

  

Sometimes it's fun to see how far back you can lean!

My mom's parents came to visit at the end of May, so we have a 4 generation picture here:

 And something new Eva has learned:

Taken June 5th!

She is trying to grow up so quickly!  She doesn't sit for extended periods of time, but she can sit unassisted for a minute or two.  Last night Brad caught her up on all fours with her tummy off the ground!  What?!  Crazy girl, she's not even 5 months old yet (barely 4 1/2 months).

Eva is as sweet as can be as long as she has a full tummy and is being held.  She will do okay playing on the floor for brief periods of time, same goes for playing in her bouncy chair, or ExerSaucer.  She also started baby oatmeal (that I make homemade!) about a week ago and she eats it twice a day, two teaspoons.  She is a great little eater.  She has been in 'baby boot camp' for a little bit now so her naps are doing MUCH better.  We started last night on night time baby boot camps and she went 11 hours between feedings!  She did wake up in the middle and cry, but my goal is that she will go at least 8 hours between feedings without waking and crying.  Eva is a joy and is so smiley...I love it!
