Dear Kiyomi,
Today, you are 4 months old! You continue to make our lives so much richer, and we love watching you grow!
4 month stats:
Weight: 13 lbs, 5 oz
Length: 65 cm
Today, you had your 4-month vaccinations, and you took them like a champ. The doctor says you are growing well, and you are gaining so much control of your head and limbs. You can now hold onto our fingers and keep your head in line with your body when we pull you up. You also learned to roll over from your belly to your back, and you love to grab onto the toys that hang on your playmat. You can even sit on your own for a little bit before you tip over. You have started drooling a LOT, and blow very attractive spit bubbles. We think you're teething, but don't know when we'll see those first teeth poke through!
You have also become so adept at self-soothing! You love to suck on your fingers or fist, and under the right conditions, it only takes you a moment or two to go to sleep once we put you down. At other times, you can cry for up to half an hour.
You're no longer that interested in the toys on your vibrating chair, and the vibrations no longer guarantee that you'll poop. Instead, you play with your teethers and your star toy, and you suck on the Tigger rattle a lot. Your leg muscles are also growing stronger, so you can stand with assistance.
You are becoming a homebody, and are the most relaxed at home. You're starting to become really suspicious of people you don't know, and will cry if someone besides you family holds you. You still like to sing along when mom sings, "You Are My Sunshine", and talk a lot with grandpa Osakabe. You are also starting to become more ticklish, and laugh a lot when we imitate you.
You've technically been in our lives for more than a year now, and we love you more and more everyday. Your personality is starting to develop, and we love to see you smile and laugh. You seem to do something new everyday, so we can't wait to see what tomorrow brings!
Love,
Your mama and papa
