Happy *4* Months Not So Little Ones!

4 Months! 

This month was a big one! I'm amazed at all they have learned, so happy that they are developing appropriately, but so sad my little sleepy needy newborns are gone. These babies are definitely still super needy but in much different ways. It's been a rough couple days between teething and we aren't sure if it's the beginnings of an ear infection or just a lot of wax buildup. My patience was by far tested yesterday, I passed but barely. I was crying, they were crying and seeing Daddy walk through that door was such a relief! 

Smiley Ellie- 



You have gotten so big! You are well over 12 lbs and are very heavy compared to your sister! We love it! You are super smiley and love to be held, which is different than the past few months. You drink 4 ounces consistently every 2-4 hours and have started teething, which makes you very angry! You are still in 0-3 month clothes but we may be able to change the sleepers to 3-6 month soon- regular clothes will probably stay the same! You are still in size 1 diapers! We have switched your bottle to the Tommie Tippie- you are a little messy but you seem to like it! You love Sophie the giraffe, your bumbo, being held, diaper changes, clothes changes, riding in a moving car, riding in a moving stroller, teethers, orajel, your piano gym and mommy & daddy of course! You were quite the show off the past few days- you rolled over for Nanny & Pappy 5 times- and mommy once yesterday. You also belly laughed for the first time yesterday! Your big smile is so contagious! You look more and more like Mommy everyday! We are getting so very excited for your first Christmas and cannot wait to celebrate with you two! We love the way you smile & laugh (once!), how you reach for toys everytime, your bald little head (no hair has grown since last month), how you love to stand up, how you love to suck on our fingers, and how you each for sissys hand to chew on it as well. You love watching sports with your daddy and he loves it too! You love to talk, but it's more like a mild scream! We are so proud of what you have learned! We love you to the moon and back! 

Baby Bri! 


You are getting so big! You are in 0-3 month clothes but slowly growing out of 0-3 month pajamas! You are in size 1 diapers still and LOVE to get your diaper changed! You are getting quite the personality and love to talk, you babble constantly- while playing, in the car, in the stroller and when you should be sleeping! We think you will be the talker of the family! You consistently drink 4 ounces every 2 to 4 hours and you are starting to teeth which can make for a cranky baby (the both of you!) You love to play and kick, talk, reach for toys, you love to sit up, play patty cake with daddy, you love to be bounced, and cuddled to sleep! You haven't rolled over again since the first two times but you love to roll from side to side! You are starting to get your hair back in full force but it's coming in a strawberry blonde. You still have a mustache shaped black strip of hair Af the base of your hairline and it's so cute! You love to chew on your hands and teethers and drool- a lot! You get relief from baby orajel and sometimes we have to give you some before you can eat! You're laugh is an amazing sound and we have caught it in video a few times! We try to do whatever we can to hear it!  You love Sophie the giraffe, your bumbo (sometimes), being held, diaper changes, clothes changes, riding in a moving car, riding in a moving stroller, teethers, orajel, your piano gym and mommy & daddy of course! We love you to the moon and back!! 

&& we cannot wait to celebrate chrismtas with our two favorite girls!
