Ashley at 4 months old




Technically, Ashley is 4 1/2 months old but I'm a little late updating the blog. She is such a cutie! At 4 months old, she weighs 12 lbs. 11 oz. and is 24 inches long. She looks so much more chubby than Paige at that age but when I looked back at her stats, she weighed 11 lbs and was about the same height. Ashley just has more rolls. She is such a talker. She jibber-jabbers constantly and occasionally throws a few grunts in. She loves to put her hands into her mouth and lately has been picking up toys in front of her and putting them in her mouth as well. She does not like tummy time and can only tolerate a couple of minutes before she starts fussing. She has no desire to roll over so the doctor suggested that we work on that. She loves Paige. She'll watch her and smile at her all the time. I just wish Paige were a little more interested in her but I think she views Ashley as a toy when it's convenient for her. (Although she is very soft with her!) I tell everyone what a good and happy baby she is. Even the babysitter says they wish they could clone her. She sleeps from about 9pm to 5am and then will go right back to sleep after eating until 9:30am. Which means we get some pretty good sleep as well. Her favorite thing is to lay on the blanket, bring her legs up to her chest, and talk and lick her toys. She is also a great laugher. We can get her going pretty good sometimes just by making funny noises. We are so blessed to have her in our family. She has truly brought an extra amount of joy and love.
