4 months old!

Raedyn has officially turned 4 months old!

She is hitting new milestones and definitely growing in height/weight. She had her 4 month dr. appt. yesterday and got her fair share of shots (which she did fairly well with). Yes she cried, but it was also her nap time so she actually just cried herself to sleep. She slept all afternoon, was awake for a couple hours, then went to bed for the night and slept til 8am this morning. Today she is much happier and back to normal. She has almost tripled her birth weight @ 12lbs and 8.5oz and is now 23 3/4 inches long with a head circumference of 16 in. The doctor mentioned that her length and head are of that of a normal 4 month old, and she has a good healthy weight. The dr has no worries as Raedyn is showing great development with her growth and milestones. Woohoo!
Here are some of her milestones she has been accomplishing within the past couple weeks.

• Sucking on her hands
• Grabbing toys when she is lying on her playmat
• Laughing, cooing, babbling.
• Rolling from her back to her side (not quite all the way over yet)
• Smiling quite often, especially when you makes noises with your mouth.
• Tracking with her eyes
• Sleeping 8-10 hours a night

Everyday is a blessing to have her in our lives. We are so happy to have such great family and friends nearby to give us love and support. Here are some current pictures (which are also on FB).

When is comes to Byron and I. We are just continuing on with life. Byron got accepted to the UW for Mechanical Engineering program which starts at the end of September. We are very excited about this next step in his life. For me, I have been back working full time for 1 month now, while Byron is at home with Raedyn. Once he starts up school, we are planning on having family watch Raedyn. We are so blessed! 

Well thats about it for our family at the moment. We are loving our new little family and can't wait to see what the future hold for us! Lots of love!
