Liv - 4 Months

Little Miss Liv is officially 4 months old and I have to say it's probably the best 4 months there has ever been! We love having the bookend baby here and her easy demeanor has made the stressful infant stage not very stressful. She has been such a good sleeper since she was 5 weeks old, but over this month she has definitely struggled a little bit...and by struggle, I mean, she woke up around 3am for a few nights in a row and then sometimes she doesn't go back to sleep after I feed her at 7am...haha! We will not complain at all and are so grateful for our restful nights.

With the big kids at school our days have turned into mama and the little girls-

Mae is such a big helper!

Bath time is a good way to keep this girl happy while I get ready and Mae is so nice to help me while I'm showering, doing my hair, or doing my makeup. I'm so glad Liv loves the water and will sit in the sink 10-20 minutes at a time!

She got blessed at the beginning of the month and we had a perfect day!

If I wait too long to lay her down, she has no problem taking care of herself!


(Oh how I love those little frog legs that won't last much longer!)

She's so glad when daddy comes home!

This girl loves any chance she gets to spend time out in the fresh air!
And I think this night I may have been watching that sweet baby face more than Thad's football game!

This is hardly any spit-up, but there is absolutely not shortage of baby barf from this girl. I haven't quite decided if she is as bad as Thad was, but she is right there with him on barf scale!

She is just the happiest little thing and is already getting mobile...how is this happening?!
Before she actually rolled, there was a lot of side lying and smiling-

And some frowning...it's probably because she's growing too fast-
Or because she looks so much like Thad...haha!

I have just been treasuring my days with these little girls and know they will shortly be a thing of the past. They often both want me at the same time when others are available to help and I can't help but be grateful even if it is nearly impossible. 

4 month olds are supposed to watch TV, right?!
Oh, as long as it's followed up with some reading, it cancels itself out...haha!

Liv is taking up her duty as an Ohio girl and cheering on the Buckeyes every Saturday!

Wes is still the best Brother Mother to our baby girl and loves when she is up for a cuddle-


I have so many darling shots of this little gal because my camera is just begging for pictures of her almost every day!



We celebrated Eve's birthday this month and she officially rolled over after everyone had gone to bed on Eve's birthday...
Yay, Liv!! You're so strong and smart!

This has also led to some funny business during diaper changes-

So proud of this girl!




We have also transitioned her to the one arm swaddle since she rolls over and it has worked well-

So many darling faces of Liv Marie!



BUMBO TIME!
I love having this option in our station rotation between naps. She doesn't last very long in it, but likes doing something different than laying down.

CAN YOU EVEN HANDLE HER CUTENESS???






She's also big enough to sit in the stroller on her own and the baby swing at the park!


We have had some majorly amazing fall weather here in Dublin and I hope we get more days like this over the next month!



We really have the cutest 4 month old on our hands, we just love her so much!



She got high-centered during our photo shoot and I just had to catch how funny it is! It has happened a lot and she doesn't get mad, just keeps trying. I love her.

And....she made it!

You're getting so big, baby Liv!
Keep getting big and strong, we love you!
