What a beautiful growing girl you are becoming, Aria! You are more and more aware of everything around you. Pictures of mom and dad are your favorite to look at but really you're infatuated with any pictures of people or especially kids.
We love music and so do you! Daddy likes to sing to you, and Mommy dances with you. You love it all! Even if music is playing on the tv you turn to look at it. During the movie Seven Brides for Seven Brothers, you turned and watched an entire dance scene for about 10 minutes. I think you and I are going to be best friends!
Your personality is starting to show through. You are such a happy and smiley girl pretty much all the time. Daddy and I will do anything to get you to smile, but we are really trying to find your ticklish spots. Mommy is dying to hear your giggles! We found that under your neck seems to be the best potential for those giggles but right now, you just do little squeaks and squeals that get higher in pitch as we tickle you.
We have found that you are easily startled by someone 'sniffing' or 'sneezing'. It's kinda silly that it seems to give you the biggest fright of all. You do like to play tricks though. Sometimes you will turn your smile completely upside down into this huge frown and your bottom lip will pout and begin to quiver. It happens in an instance. It is so not like you, that your dad and I laugh out loud. To which you immediately smile, thinking you are pretty funny!
On 10.01.16 Daddy and I decided to give you some earrings to match your sparkling personality! You were so brave and cried just for a minute until we were done. They are just perfect and the right size for you! I am so excited for all the jewelry we will buy in the future together.We know you are cute, but we have had complete strangers, along with family and friends tell us repeatedly just how beautiful you are. This makes you so happy and you flash your gummy smile at everyone that tells you this! You already love compliments.
You had your 4 month checkup and the Doctor says you look perfect! Weighing 14 pounds and 4 ounces (46%) & measuring in length at 25 and 1/4 inches. (76%) You had your second round of shots and you cried just for a little, but Daddy quickly consoled you. Next appointment won't be until you are 6 months old.This month you are eating about 4-4.5 ounces every 4 hours. At night you will go sleep about 4-6 hour stretches. We still use size one diapers, but we will be switching to size 2 very soon. You've been mostly wearing size 3 month clothing but are starting to pull out all the outfits in the 3-6 month range.
You are really studying everything around you. We will blow raspberry with our mouth and you will imitate by blowing them back to us, usually along with some bubbles and drool. Nowadays you drool everywhere! You also have found your voice and are becoming louder. We love the sounds you make and it will sometimes sound like little words such as "hi" or "yeah". Our most favorite though was on 10.01.16. Mommy had you in her arms and together we were playing peek-a-boo with Daddy and tickling you.
Daddy said to you "I Love You."
Then you cooed back the syllables that sounded just like "I Love You".
In that instance your Dad and I, our hearts melted! And although it may have sounded similar to when Tarzan teaches Jane to say 'I Love You' in gorilla, we still know what you were meaning. We love you too Aria!
