I know I haven't been blogging like I should, but my laptop is currently under the weather, and I have been too busy to do anything about it for a number of weeks. SO... blogging isn't as easy on the desktop. That's my story and I'm stickin' to it. So I have a lot to share about Leah's month. This has been a big month for growing and doing new things, so here goes: -First and foremost, Leah has been sleeping through the night. Hallelujah! She goes to bed around 9:30 and wakes up around 7:30. It is amazing!
- Leah had her very first trip to the mall when we went shopping for Aunt Cassie's bday. She made friends with many strangers. They can't resist her cuteness. Shopper in training!
-She also had her first Thai food, MY favorite. Ok, so she didn't really eat it of course, but I sure did. AND she was such a good girl. She has been to many restaurants in the last month!
-Cuteness alert! Leah had her first giggle! Of course, she laughed at her Daddy! They love to play "choo choo train." Choo! Choo! Check out the video! -She is not rolling over yet, but she gets that leg going and comes VERY close.
-Leah has started taking formula, which she seems to LOVE. She tries to hold her own bottle, and sometimes tries to watch tv and eat at the same time. Like father, like daughter! Haha, just kidding!
-Leah went to her first baby shower for sweet baby, Avery Marshall (coming in September). She loved sitting in Kelly's lap and watching Shannon open presents! We passed her around to Melissa, Pam, and of course Shannon.
-She still loves the fan. It's a lifesaver when it comes to calming her down to sleep. I am its number one fan. Get it? teehee.
-Now starts the time when she is using both of her hands to grab toys and everything has one destination- her mouth. "Why are all your toys wet, Leah?" She has "discovered" her hands, and is using them better and better everyday. We are still training her to put her Pootie back in her mouth.
-She loves to stand up and look around. She is very curious and inquisitive.
-She can sit up, assisted of course.
-She enjoys a new alternative to tummy time:
-She is cooing like crazy. Long drawn out coos and goo goos. We hang on every "word." She also blows raspberries, which is super cute.
-Sticking your tongue out at her is the best chance for a big toothless grin!
-She loves books and is starting to try to turn the pages.
-She still loves her playplace and her froggy toy/bouncer.
-The drool, my goodness, the drool.
-So last. I have been procrastinating sharing this one. Her hair. is. falling. out. There are little baby hairs everywhere. In my mouth (too many kisses!), in her bed, on her pootie, you name it. Sad. I know- it will grow back. Blah blah blah. BUT, it don't matter because she is still the darn cutest baby in the universe (her daddy thinks so too!).
For fun, POOP FACE! :)

Happy 4 Month Birthday, Leah! You are definitely the cutest baby I have seen since your Mommy and Uncle Ryan!
