4 Months

 Stats
Zoe, my Angel baby, it's been a while since our last update , but today you finally had your 4 month check up on Tuesday. You now weigh 12lbs 14.5 oz. You've grown beautifully , although I couldn't tell you how long you are because the computers are down and we didn't get a print out like we usually do. Your head has shot up on the charts which makes me laugh.
Teeth
You Still have no teeth , and your doctor doesn't think you'll have any until you're 7 months old "give or take 4 months." Whatever that means. 
Eating 
 You eat every 3 hours. We're pretty sure you're allergic to the regular formula, no matter what your doctor says , so currently you're on a soy/regular formula mix. Mostly because you keep soy down wonderfully , but it stops you up , so we have to keep giving you regular formula too , so you'll poop , but not have diarrhea.  Also you're eating 3-4oz every 2-3 hours. I feel like you should be eating more , but you keep gaining weight , so I guess I don't need to worry too much.
Awesome stuff you do 
  • You still don't sleep great , but you'll go to bed around 9:30 every night and wake up around 11am. It's really nice. Or would be if you didn't wake up twice a night to eat. 
  • You LOVE your hands. Anyone's hands really.
  • If it can go in your mouth , it does. Which leads to lots of wet toys , remotes, and cell phones. 
  • Daddy calls you his wookie baby because you make this noise that sounds almost exactly like a wookie
  • We've noticed that you really don't like to sit down anymore , and you don't really care for your stomach. Solution ? We got you a Jenny Jump Up. It hangs in your doorway , and we put you in there for your "tummy time" well I do anyways. Daddy still puts you on your stomach. You love the jump up though. It's lovely. 
  • You're still a HUGE cuddle bug. Most of the time you won't sleep unless I've got you cuddled right up against me. 
  • You love when I read you books. I can lay down with you and you're content to listen to me read to you as you turn the pages. 
  • Bubble baths are still your absolute favorite. You'd kick and splash in there all night if I'd let you.
