This girl is already 4 months old!  I feel like time is just flying by!  She is healthy and happy, just small and petite like her sister.  She is a couple of ounces smaller than Sienna at this age, but the same height.  We thought for sure she was bigger, but not so!  She is long and lean like her brother and sister!  She had to get 4 shots at the Dr. and did really well with them, only cried a little.  I think Sienna screamed and cried more, and she only had to get a flu shot!  Sienna is not a fan of the Dr. office, she cries before we even open the door to go inside.  

Everly is in 3 month and 3-6 month clothes.  She eats about every 3 hours.  She unfortunately has started the 4 month regression in her sleeping.  She has been getting up every night for the last week to eat.  I want to just let her cry it out and not get up with her, but it wakes up Eric.  So I have been getting up and feeding her, but I'm hoping she'll figure it our soon and will go back to sleeping through the night.  She goes down at 9:30pm and will sleep until about 8am.  She takes about 4 naps during the day.  I haven't put her on a nap schedule yet, but she usually takes her long nap in the afternoon in her swing.  

She still doesn't like tummy time, but holds her head up really well.  She sits in the bumbo, but hasn't figured out how to hold toys yet, so she gets bored easily!  She loves her blankets and will pull them up around her face to eat them and likes them close to her when she naps.  She loves to play with her hands and put them in her mouth a little.  She isn't drooling much, but the Dr. did say he could feel a little bit of a bottom tooth that will be coming.  He said probably not too soon though.  

She had her first cold at about 3 1/2 months.  It was so sad, she was all stuffy and had a cough.  It took about a week and a half to go away.   She loves bath time, and will kick her legs in the water. 

She smiles all the time, and loves to be talked to.  I have got her to giggle, but she is pretty stubborn with it.  She loves to be held, and is very loved by her siblings.  Sienna is always giving her hugs and kisses.   She is a sweet little baby and we love her so much!  So grateful she is in our family!

1st part of October

We've got her first ponytails!  I know, this is usually when you are 1, but we will take what we can get!  She still loves to wear her headbands as well.

These kids already have the iPad and iPods figured out, and love it!

He had to get his pic by himself cause the kids didn't want to be in it.  Haha!

We celebrated Eric's birthday!  He went to work, but came home a little early so we could go to Chuy's for dinner with his parents.  After we opened presents and had cake.  We got him a Michigan shirt, some socks, and a nerf gun!  Camden wanted to get the gun for him so that they could play together, since he already has one!  After we put the kids to bed we went to Top Golf with Jackie/Christian and Angie/Casey.  I forgot to take any pics while we were there, but it was a lot of fun!  Hopefully he had a good day!  

Her first time in the swing....she is so tiny!  But she seemed to like it.  

Haha their faces!  They were all about taking the picture before, and then no one smiles or looks!

This is what happens when you let two 3 year olds go upstairs unsupervised!  Toys dumped out everywhere! Haha!  This was when we did Everly's 4 month pictures at Angie's house.  

A few pics from Everly's shoot...Sienna was not really into getting her picture taken.  Angie took a few of Camden as well and he was a little more willing to get his taken.   Everly was pretty good, but we didn't get all the ones we planned on cause she got tired and fell asleep.  The ones we got are really cute though.  Can't wait to get them back!

September 2017

We are so happy football is back and we can cheer for our favorite teams!

Playing dress up one morning!

Camden hardly ever just falls asleep...he is too stubborn.  But he was too tired one afternoon after school and took a nice nap on the couch, not in the most comfortable position though!

Got the bumbo out for Everly, and of course everyone else had to try it as well!  Since they are all skinny minnies they all fit!  Haha!  Everly likes it ok, but she can't hold onto toys yet, so she gets bored in it pretty easily!

Putting on all her necklaces and bracelets!  Looking back I noticed I didn't take very many pictures in September.  It wasn't a very eventful month for us, Eric was super busy at work for his deadline so we were kinda boring!  Lots of playing at home and at the park!

We got this sassy girl's pics back as well!  I just love them.  She was so good taking them.  I love her smile and expressions.  She has definitely started her "terrible two's" but is still a sweetheart!  We love her and are so grateful she is in our family!
