Baby Girl is 4 Months!!

I wish I would have more pictures on here.  I'm not doing as good of a job recording her early days as I did her big brother.  I don't pick up the camera as much as I would like.  Hopefully that will change once Big Brother is in school and I have some more "baby time".

She had her 4 month appointment today. 

Stats
Weight:  11lbs. 7oz.  (5%)
Height:  23.75"  (25%)
Head:  16.25"  (50%)

So....little body, big head

It's more head for me to kiss!


Funny

Little Man and I were just cracking up when I showed him the picture in the last post.  
Baby girl has a hold of his ear :)

Update...

Thanks to my Mamma friends who have sent notes of support and let me know that I am not alone in my sinking ship :)  I also got a few calls of concern from my loved ones.  I am here to assure you that I am going to be OKAY!  But....I'm not going to lie, this is hard.  I'm out of my comfort zone.  I am challenged constantly.  The transition from 3-4 has not be smooth.  This is something new to me.  
-The piles of papers coming home from school
-The child that wants to nurse around the clock b/c I "think" she is having a growth spirt
(Meanwhile trying to keep another child from burning the house down)
-The demands of my challenging child while baby is screaming
-Keeping the peace between boy vs. older girls
While....cooking, picking up, laundry for 6, and making time for God and my friends.
I'm pooped.....really, really pooped!
But, this is a season and I will survive.
And I'm pooped....b/c I'm blessed!
Gotta go, Jonah screamed at me b/c his play-do creation got messed up so the catnap is over.
Baby calls.....

Fly in....fly out

We had a special guest for the day.  
Papa was able to jump in on a flight from Illinois to the Carolinas.  
He was only here from 9-5, but we filled it with fun.
