4 months!

Our little peanut is not so much a peanut anymore! I feel like she is getting so big. She has the chunkiest, cheesiest thighs ever. I love them. They're so squishy. A little girl at the scout auction we went to tonite commented on them: "Oh, don't worry, they'll go away. And then she'll get pregnant. And then they'll come back." I was cracking up...she's 11. She has her 4 month appointment next week, so I don't know her stats, but I'm guessing she's around 12.5 pounds.

Summer has the cutest personality and she loves to give out smiles to anyone and everyone. She loves her dad and watches him wherever he is. She's also started to make some pretty funny faces, which we were able to catch on camera today.

She loves sucking on her hands, and will try to cram both in at the same time, often resulting in gagging herself.

She's doing a lot better with tummy time, much to my relief, and I'm sure hers.


She's started to grab and hold onto toys, and especially likes to hold onto Hoppers, her stuffed bunny. (This may be because it's one of the few toys she has, and the one I keep giving her.)


There's really not a lot she doesn't like. She gets cranky pretty quickly if she doesn't get her nap or go to bed on time. She sure loves her sleep, just like her mama.

She is just a fun little babe to be around. I constantly get stopped at the store by people who want to look at her and tell me she "looks like a doll!" or "you must have had heartburn!" or "look at those eyes!" I know we're biased, but I have to agree that she's one of the cutest babies I've ever seen!

Happy 4 months, Summer love!!

Okay, so I totally thought she looked just like Derrick, but she looks alot like you Karen with all of her facial expressions! Isn't it crazy how they already have these big personalities? Summer is so cute!
