Ella at Four Months

Ella had her four month check up! She weighed 11 pounds, 5 ounces, measured 22 inches long, and had a head circumference of 16 inches. Her pint sized self is growing wonderfully! 

I have officially started working part time so Ella has been going to Miss Janet's house every other day. She has so much fun there; playing and watching the older kids learn cool stuff. Janet regularly sends us photos of Ella throughout the day that just warm my heart. I have no doubt that Ella will be a better human being because of her time with Janet. 

Ella is becoming more vocal; mostly talking to herself while she is playing on her mat. I think her words are self motivating, as she is loudest when grabbing for her toy lion, which she tries to eat. She is rolling from her back to her side, but not all the way over. She has rolled twice from her tummy to her back (but she was propped up so we won't call it 'official').

She is currently experiencing a little sleep regression. As opposed to her nine to eleven hours of straight sleep, it's more like six to eight hours. She will put herself to sleep, sometimes easily, sometimes with a fight.  I've found myself, on multiple occasions, scrolling through Ella photos while at work...I think she has my heart.
