This weekend Raya will be 4 months old!! I can't believe it. We're going to try to start cereal this weekend, it should be interesting.

She's already rolling both ways and almost sitting up! Before long she'll be walking!!!

They do grow up fast! I was amazed with mine, how fast you needed to keep putting stuff higher, so they couldn't get into it. At first the couch is high enough, but pretty soon it needs to be a counter and then you have to make sure it's not on the edge, because even though they can't see up there, they sure can reach it! LOL!

4 mos. already?! Seems I just read her birth announcement! Before we know it you'll be posting about her first steps. Yes, they do grow up quickly! Sniff, sniff...

Trina, I know!! Makes me want to cry when I think about not ever having a new born again.

It makes it worse that she seems so much older for her age. She actually will sit and watch a whole episode of Blue's Clues. She loves playing Patty Cake. When you get to the "roll 'em up" part..she just rolls and rolls her little hands. *Sniff*. I want my little baby back!!!

Aww, wow time flies. She is doing alot. How much does she weigh now? Post a pic soon, I want to see her again.

Hey Candis! I don't know exactly how much show weights right now. The last time she went to the doctor(around 3 months) she was 10 lbs 7 oz. She feels A LOT heavier than that now. My guess would be 13-14 lbs!! She's really starting to get chunky!

I wish I had a scanner!! I just got the kids' pictures back. They're so good!! I have some to get developed and then I will post for sure.

How's Lauren doing?

She is good, you may have read about her slow weight gain, but she is gaining great now. 10 lbs. a week ago so probably more now. She rolls from her belly to back but not the other way yet. She smiles all the time. She especially likes to watch her big sisters play, it is so funny, because she really gets into watching and her arms and legs just are non stop moving..lol

I am so bad about getting film developed, I need to make that a goal of mine. I will take pictures all day long but I bet I have more than 10 rolls of film I need to develop! Maybe I will take some in this weekend.

Lauren has lost alot of her hair, except she has a mohawk, it is too funny. Haileys hair did the same thing. She loves to be held, DH says we have spoiled her because she is our last. *sniff*

It's a busy life being a mom

I'm happy to hear she's gaining weight!! I cleaned out Raya's dresser and closet and had to pull all of the 0-3 month clothes. Talk about depressing!!

Raya loves to be on her belly, but it makes me nervous. I'll put her to bed on her back and check back 10 minutes later and she's on her belly. Scary!

She's lost some of her hair too. She looks like a little old man because she has hair in the front and on the sides..but she has a big bald spot.

She's our last too. It's sad to think I'll never be pregnant again or never have another newborn.
