Well better late than never! HA! I think it's funny I'm so late posting her four month post when I did her photo shoot SO early! I wanted to make sure I got it done before we left for Texas! So without further adieu, here is Miss Emma Claire's four month post!
I cannot believe my little girl is FOUR months already!!! She has grown and changed so much this past month and I love her personality.
I was telling the Hubs that this will be the last monthly photo shoot that I can lay her on her back and she won't flip over! She was moving and wiggling the whole time! Luckily Daddy was home so we got some GREAT smiles!
I could just stare at her precious smile All. Day. Long. I'm lucky enough that that's what I actually get to do most days!
Here is a little of what Emma Claire has been up to this month...
Eating: She is such a great eater! Now that she's sleeping well at night she eats about 4 times a day. She will sometimes just want to nurse and "snack" as I call it. In the afternoons we will also sometimes cuddle while she nurses and dozes a bit. It is one of my favorite times of the day.
Sleeping: No complaints here. Sleep training has changed our lives, seriously y'all. I feel like now that sleeping is under control I have so much more "me" time as well as "mommy/daddy" time. It's been wonderful. You can read about how I sleep trained her HERE. And I am happy to report she has been such a great sleeper in Texas as well! I was SO nervous! But I have kept her routine the same and I put her down at 7pm in the PNP and she will sleep sometimes until 4am here. We have had a few rough nights but I expected that with the new environment. Overall I am so proud of her and so glad we got sleeping under control before we came here!
Firsts: First airplane ride, first trip to Texas, first trip to Baylor, Emma Claire met all of her uncles for the first time, she has also started rolling to her side CONSTANTLY, I swear she says "mama"...not kidding! I need to video her saying it! I am positive there are more that I am forgetting! Trying to write this while she naps and before my chiropractor appointment! ha!
Clothes: All 0-3 months are wayyy too small so she's officially in 3 month clothing. And apparently smocked clothing runs super small because she has been wearing all of her 3 month smocked outfits this trip and they are all HUGE! Which is good...we'll get a lot of use out of them! Diapers are still a size 1!
Mommy Moments: I have just had so much fun these past two weeks "showing" Emma Claire my home and taking her to Baylor. I have also loved showing her off to friends and family and having everyone say that she is so cute "in real life"! ha! Everyone feels like they know her already from all of my pictures and video, which I LOVE. And it makes me appreciate this blog even more. It really does help friends and family in Texas feel connected to us all the way out in Virginia!
This has been my favorite month so far...it's just been so FUN! I think now that breastfeeding is literally a piece of cake, we have the dairy intolerance under control, and sleep training is completed there is more time for us to have fun together! I can't wait to see what this next month will bring!

She is just to cute for words. Happy 4 months miss Emma Claire
okay so these pics are adorable (nothing new ha) but it seriously looks like she is standing up doing ballet to me hahaha :) I just keep scrolling up and down and she is totally a dancer ;) hehe
ps thanks for the reminder that I never posted any 4 month photos of RG. oops- and we totally did that shoot early too- I hate my blog hasnt had any of the pics- guess I can still post even though shes 4 1/2 months old now :-P oops! ha
That purple bow is just too cute!
She is so adorable!! I loved the 4 month age a lot too :) So fun!
She is so stinking sweet! Purple is her color :).
She is too precious!!
Oh my gosh- she has the cutest little face! I know you had so much fun showing her off!
I was already about to call her a wiggle worm (could totally tell from the pics). Cracks me up. She is getting that adorable baby chunk on her. Love it. Sounds like things are much smoother. What a glorious feeling! I know! Btw...that "snacking" she's doing may be because this is the age when babies start getting more social and interested in what's around them. I guess she'll be a social drinker. Haha!
