Molly-4 Months

Time just keeps flying by. It really is true that life goes faster with 2 kids. I thought things went fast with Brooklyn, but we are in double time with Molly I feel like. Slow down. Molly is such a good baby! It is so funny because looking back when Brooklyn was a baby and the only child, we thought she was hard at times. Molly has never been hard, it is my toddler who is hard. No baby blues here, but toddler blues? Yes! Enough about Brooklyn-let's shine some light on my second child, who already lacks attention from me; cue-mommy guilt. Miss Molly, you are a CHUB!! You have the best rolls, the cutest cheeks and the best little smile there ever was. You melt my heart, and you smell so good-I forgot what a lovely smell babies have!

  • She is a super happy girl unless she is tired or hungry
  • She will NOT take a paci-I am a human pacifier, which makes for long nights...
  • She is a great napper-takes 2 short naps in the morning and a long afternoon nap
  • OBSESSED with Brooklyn-she tracks and follows her everywhere...now if the feelings were mutual my life would be a little less crazy...
  • Not on any acid reflux medicine and she seems to be great! 
  • Starting to like tummy time more 
  • first plane ride to Florida
  • turned 4 months in Florida!
  • first trip to the beach!
  • Still sleeps in mommy's room, in the pack and play. She doesn't stay in the pack and play all night, she ends up in bed with me.  Will be such a hard habit to break...
  • Not a good night time sleeper...up every 2-3 hours to nurse. This girl loves to eat!
  • Reaches and grabs for toys
  • Loud noises do not bother her...she is used to Brooklyn being loud all day, she can sleep through any loud noise!
  • Found her hands!
  • Drools all the time!
LOVES:
  • Brooklyn
  • Watching t.v. (oops!)
  • Being held
  • Nursing
 HATES:
  • Being cold
  • Sleeping at night time
  •  Paci's 
Slowly trying to get Molly on a schedule.  She wakes anywhere between 7-7:30am, and will nurse every 2.5-3 hours.  She is awake for 1.5 hours before wanting a nap.  She takes all naps in her swing in the living room. Put her in bed around 7:30pm, but she will get up every 2-3 hours in the night to nurse.







Molly fits in to our family perfectly! We all love her so much and we can't wait to see what the next month has in store for her!
