Julia is 4 months old!

Wow. Four months ago, our sweet Julia made her entrance into this big, wide world. I can't believe she is already four months old, but at the same time I can't believe she has only been here four months!

Julia's personality has really flourished this last month. She's such a loveable, cheerful baby who is always open to giving hugs and kisses! She's discovered more of her voice this month and enjoys talking to anyone or anything. It's not uncommon to hear her talking to her stuffed toys or even her hands! More recently, she has begun to coordinate her eyes with her hands to grab toys. She's started to try to grab items that are far away, so we bring them closer to her so she can feel the object.

Here's Julia's 4 month update:

Things she's doing:

- grabbing objects and bringing them to her mouth

- yelling/talking to anyone or anything

- laughing at mommy and daddy

- getting so excited that it shows in her whole body movements

Things she's learning:

- showing some signs of trying to grab something while on her tummy

- coordinate her movements with what she sees

- shuffle on her back around her playmat

What she likes:

- attention from anyone - she loves to socialise!

- putting things in her mouth

- grabbing her stack of clean diapers when getting changed

What she dislikes:

- staying on her tummy for too long

- being left with one toy for too long

I keep saying this, but everyday gets better and better. Seeing Julia's changes and developments is one of the best life experiences we have both had. We can't wait to see more!
