Almost 4 Months



I can't believe that Eva's almost 17 weeks old. I remember at 20 weeks of my pregnancy we found out she was a girl. That seems like so early in my pregnancy but she was technically older than than she is now! Crazy.
She's doing so well. She is getting much better at holding her head up and being on her tummy. She still can't completely support herself with her arms, but I'm sure that's coming. She's had a few nights now where she has gone down for her long sleep without the hour or so or crying. I really hope that it's a sign she might be growing out of that. It's not a big deal, but it would be nice to put her down with out it. She still wakes up most nights once, but usually just to eat and then goes back down. We tried cereal twice, but I don't think she was ready for it. I might try again in a week or so. She loves her Johnny Jump Up. It hangs from a door frame and supports her weight while she bounces on her feet (thanks boucha Niewolny for the awesome find!) She can grasp and bring toys to her mouth now and she ALWAYS has her hands in her mouth. She is a drool queen. Not sure if it's the beginning of teething or if she's just a drooly girl. She's rolling side to side, but not over yet.
Despite the awful economic times and financial hardships, I am so blessed to be able to spend more time at home with her, blessed just to have her and with her the sence of peace and fullfillment she brings me.
