Sophia is Four Months Old!


Sophia is four months old today. Her personality is developing more and more these days as she becomes more active and alert to us and to her surroundings. She is a relatively easy-going baby; she seems to only cry when she really needs something (a feeding, a diaper change, or if she becomes bored). Here is a little bit of information about her:

-- She now weighs 13 lbs. 4 oz (this puts her in the 40th percentile for weight).

-- She is 24.5 inches long (this puts her in the 60th percentile for length).

-- She has been sleeping through the night since she was about 2 months old. I typically put her down for bed between 9 and 9:30 pm (after Sam goes to bed) and she usually wakes up between 6 and 7 am. Very impressive!

-- She is so long that she wears 6-9 month sleepers. Her other clothes range in size depending on the outfit.

-- She is transitioning into size 1-2 diapers. She has a lot of wet diapers during the day and only poops about twice a day.

-- There is still A LOT of drooling. I think that we must average about 8-10 wet bibs a day!

-- She typically takes a morning nap and an afternoon nap. If the stars are aligned, I can get Sam and Sophia to take a nap at the same time. Often, but not always ...

-- She started rolling over 10 days ago and now she doesn't stop! If I leave her on her playmat for any period of time, she is often in a completely different location when I return. The tricky stage has started!


And just because ... here's a picture of both of the girls together:
