I can't believe that Lilly is 4 months old! She went to the doctor today and is 14.02 lbs, 25.5 inches long. There are so many things that we love about her. The way she smiles when we get her out of her crib - how she has started laughing when we clap her hands - watching her watch everything around herself and seeing things for the first time through her eyes. Everything is so exciting with her! She started rolling over from her tummy to her back and wants so badly to roll over from her back to her tummy. She sleeps through the night (all because of that book we got from one of our friends - Healthy Sleep Habits, Happy Child by Marc Weissbluth, M.D.). We just lay her in her crib and she gets so happy to be in there - we turn on her music and then kiss her goodnight. She is so sweet and adorable, we absolutely love every second with her!
It's been so hard though to leave Lilly everyday and go to work. Luckily, my parents moved here and my mom is able to watch her everyday. It's been a huge blessing to not have to take her to daycare. But I wonder, how do you other working mom's do it? It's so hard. I worry that I am missing out on so many of her little moments.
Brandon and I also keep talking about our next baby. What would it be like to have TWO babies! We have focused so much on getting Lilly, I never thought about what we would do after we had her - how long would we wait until we started "actively" searching for our next little one? It's hard to imagine loving another baby as much as we love Lilly, our lives are so blessed because of her - I can't even imagine what it would be like to have that dream be doubled!
