Little Miss Kate turned 4 months old on Sunday! She has changed so much in one month - every week she seems to change! Currently, she really wants to sit upright. Whenever she is reclined back she tries to pull herself upright. We prop her up as often as we can and she likes the new view of the world. Kate has also discovered that she can control her hands. She grabs hold of rattles and picks them up when they are near her. She reaches up and bats things on her floor gym. She's just discovered the joys of toys - and just in time for Christmas too!
Her latest "toy" is a rain forest jumpy seat that my Aunt Debbie and Aunt Dot gave Kate before she was even born. We are so excited to finally use it. Now you might notice the phonebooks under her feet; well, Kate isn't quite tall enough yet to reach the floor, but we want her to develop her leg muscles. It's a solution for now. There are so many more ways she has changed - she's holding up her own neck and very attached to mommy and daddy. We are really enjoying her. Shayla is too, or at least Shayla likes her toys. :)
Kate's been a bit under the weather the past few weeks. First she had a stomach bug that created A LOT of dirty diapers and a nasty diaper rash. We made it through that, and now she's battling a possible ear infection. We go back to the doctors on Wednesday for a re-check on her ears. She's been keeping her mommy and daddy on their toes. It's the winter months for sure.
Before we go, Kate has a special message to deliver:
Happy Birthday, Auntie Shawna!
