Claire's almost 5 month update


(((Sisters)))


 Colored eggs.  It is easter after all!


Miss Claire Helping mommy make dinner.

12 pounds even (7th percentile)
25.5 inches (90th percentile)
Head is about 10th percentile.

Miss Claire is practically perfect in every way.  She is right on track with where she should be.  Heck she barely even cried when they gave her shots.  Which was nice.

Here is a long overdue update on Claire at 4.5 months old.

She....

....Smiles and giggles at us all the time.  For the most part seems like a pretty happy baby.

....Can still be pretty fussy from time to time.

....Still loves to be cuddled...mostly by mommy.

....Is so infatuated with her big sister.

....Usually drinks about 6 ounces at a time now. 

....Has been measured and casted for her helmet.  She gets that put on on May 3rd.

.....Loves to be played with and tossed in the air.

....Still wakes up at least once a night to eat a bottle.

....Loves food.  Pears. Apples. Carrots. Green beans. Peaches. Sweet potatoes. And of course Oatmeal.  She eats a whole container of fruit or veg along with her oatmeal.  Once a day.

....She's getting easier to take places now that she doesn't scream like you are murdering her in her car seat.

That's about all I can think of right now.  I'm sure there's more that I'm just not thinking about right now so I'll update the list if I think of anything.

Claire's 4 month update....

Happy 4 months Miss Claire! 

At four months Miss Claire....

...is constantly smiling.  Such a happy girl and it's so easy to make her giggle.

...Loves to be cuddled and loved on.

...but is starting to get fearful of strangers.

...thinks her big sister is the best thing ever EVER.

...always wants to be sitting up right so she can see what's going on at all times.

...can roll over if she really puts her mind to it. (back to tummy)

...does not like to stay in the same place for long...she wiggles away and spins herself around.

...still has a pretty flat head on one side.  She has  PT appt this week so I'm hoping there will be some marked improvement.

...Loves apples, peaches, sweet potatoes.  Not so much green beans but we'll keep trying.

...Still wakes up at least once a night to eat.  I'm so used to it I think I'd freak out now if she slept past 3:30. 

...definitely prefers mommy, though she's warming up to daddy quite nicely.

...still sleeps in a swaddle (which makes me wonder why they don't make swaddles that fit bigger babies anyway?)

...is becoming pretty fun as she learns new things each day.

...reaches for and grabs at toys

...really isn't a big nuk baby.  When she is super fussy during the day she likes it, otherwise not so much and she never takes it at night (and never has)




Regardless, we love you Claire and we can't imagine life without you now.  Though a little more sleep would be wonderful!
