Time is flying by. Our tiny human is already 4 months old! Things are much better since my last post. The tiny human is taking a bottle more readily and is perfectly OK without me through the day. This is due to the fact that she has an attentive, patient and loving caregiver when KB and I are not home.
4-month update
Over the past month, our tiny human:
- Wore her first pair of jeans. It is just too cute!
- Attended her first wedding – my brother got married.
- Sat up unaided for a second or 2 before toppling over.
- Voiced her dislike (loudly and insistently) of the African Baby Carrier I bought to carry her around in. I’ve also tried carrying her in a wrap on various occassions; she hates it too. I’ll try the carrier again in a couple of weeks.
- Noticed her feet. I’m not sure she knows that they are in fact her feet, but she is entertained by them. It is making nappy changes more challenging though!
- Started grabbing at her toys on her baby gym and bouncer chair’s toy arch.
- Napped for an hour and a half straight.
- Started drooling excessively and making more sounds using her tongue, as opposed to just moaning and babbling.
Today also marks my first day back at work. Although I am going to miss her little face a lot, like a lot a lot, I am looking forward to getting a sense of “me” back. I’m sure our new norm will come with a few challenges and some adjustments, but I’m also sure it is going to be great in so many ways!
