4 Months

Caroline is 4 months!  One third of a year! ha!  She is such a delight and I highly recommend a 3rd baby to anyone who asks ;)  

She is developing such a little personality and it is so interesting to see how different she is from the other girls.  I think she is the most talkative and loves to babble and coo.  She doesn't appreciate her big sisters yelling in her face and yells right back at them sometimes while simultaneously looking like she's going to bite their faces.  They of course think this is hilarious so just yell even louder.

She is a smiley little babe and at that fun stage where she will just sit at church peeking over my shoulder and smiling at the strangers behind us.  I'm sure I'm biased but I do believe I get the biggest grins ;)  

She just started rolling over the day she turned 4 months, we found her in her crib on her belly!  Right now it's only back to front but she's getting good at it.  We're still loosely swaddling her but hopefully over the weekend will work on getting her to sleep without the swaddle entirely.

Caroline loves to suck or nibble on her hand to help self-soothe and has just found her feet in the last couple of days too so is often grabbing onto them.  They've not made their way into her mouth just yet though :)

She went through a couple days where she was refusing the bottle again but is taking it pretty well now so hopefully that will continue!  My other girls would eat basically anytime a bottle was offered but she really just only eats when she's hungry I think.  

Her big sisters love holding her and often fight about whose turn it is.  Harper is getting braver and I've caught her trying to pick up Caroline a couple times which is sorta scary.  Don't make the mistake of saying something about EK being little or she will most certainly yell at you to remind you that she is big like Harper and Caroline is the little baby.  

Caroline's eyes are looking pretty brown and for the most part I think she looks a ton like Harper though occasionally people will say she looks like EK or a mix of them.  EK loves finding blue eyed friends 'just like her' since she's the only blue eyed girl in our house. 

Caroline is wearing mostly 3-6 month clothes now, size 2 diapers.  She is sleeping pretty bad in my opinion but we're dealing with it.  She's up at least 2x/night, occasionally 3.  I think I just got spoiled over maternity leave when she was sleeping nearly through the night.  That changed when I went back to work and she was refusing to eat during the day and while she is eating now, the sleeping is still not great.  One of these days we will all sleep!  Andy reminds me that in a few years I'm going to be begging my kids to wake up and go do something with me on the weekends, haha.  At her 4 mo WCC she was up to 14.1 lbs, 25 inches - 44/67%iles.
