Dear Molly, You are four months old today. A few days ago you learned to roll from back to front, but can't quite figure out how to get from your stomach to your back.Your doctor's appointment was good--you are 23 1/2 in long and 12 lbs, 2 oz--both of which mean you are roughly in the 20% (could be 10-25%, the charts are hard to read!). The doctor is not concerned that you're on the small side, and thinks you're doing great. So do we! You didn't cry much for the two shots, but did cry at having to drink one of the vaccines--strange, because you didn't cry about it last time.

You love to suck on your hands and the drool just gets everywhere. You drool a lot, but spit up less. You smile, laugh, reach and grab. You mostly sleep through the night, although do sometimes wake up because of a diaper change or paci replacement. You eat at about 5pm and again at about 6am--so we don't have to get up to feed you at least. You only take two other bottles during the day.
You still like bath time and enjoy going for walks when the weather cooperates. It's been a very hot and humid summer. You are enjoying staying home with Papa and Leo and have gotten pretty good about taking at least one good long nap during the day. The other 2-3 naps are usually an hour or less.
We love you sweet girl, Mama, Papa, and Leo
