It is hard to believe that Madeline is 4 months old already . . . but she is. She babbles, drools, rolls over, laughs, sleeps through the night, puts everything in her mouth, and continues to eat like a horse. Madeline has begun flipping over in her sleep. I was having to get up 2-4 times a night and flip her back over, because she was very upset. Thankfully, she has recently begun to sleep on her tummy once she flips over. I even found her sleeping on her tummy once, and then found her on her back when she woke up. So, she is capable of flipping both ways-- she just doesn't know it yet. Unless you lay Madeline on the changing table, dressing her is like trying to clothe a rolly polly. She flips over before I can get her second arm in the sleeve. Madeline loves to laugh, and no one can get her gut laughing quite like Hannah. I love to listen to Hannah make Madeline laugh as we are driving around town. Her personality continues to emerge every day. She is a happy interactive baby, and we are thrilled to get to know her more each day.
Madeline LOVES her big sister Hannah. She thinks Hannah is so funny! And, as you can see-- Madeline is WAY to big for her carrier. She outgrew it over a month ago (measuring longer than 26 inches), but she can't sit up yet, so I am hoping to keep her in the carrier until she can ride in a shopping cart. We'll see what she weighs at her appointment next week though-- she may have to move up sooner.
Pushing up.
Madeline LOVES her feet. Hannah never played with her feet, and Madeline can't leave hers alone.
Madeline even enjoys sucking her toes in stereotypical baby fashion.
I recently got over my bathtub germaphobia and started bathing the girls together. They think it's great. Madeline sits on her little mesh bathtub seat, and Hannah hands her toys and makes her laugh.

I can't believe Madeline is so big already either!!! Where did you get the thing she sits on in the bath tub? I'd love to start bathing the boys together, because right now it is twice as much work having two bath tubs!! I'm glad you and Jonathan are on the mend and feeling better! Take care!
It's just a $5 mesh seat (looks like a bouncy) from Wal-Mart. Our target didn't carry any in the store and we don't have a Babies R Us, so I didn't do much comparison shopping. I did see some other options online at Target.com. But, this seems to work well-- you just can't put too much water in the tub.
Funny story-- I tried the Bumbo before I purchased this seat, and it floated. I didn't expect it to float (with her weight and the water, etc.). We got a good laugh out of that-- watching Madeline bob up and down.
Really sweet photo of Madeline smiling ear to ear while she watches Hannah so intently. And bath time looks like a lot of fun:)
Lori, so good to catch up on everything. I've been checking in here and there, but haven't been online in about a week, so I was behind! I'm glad y'all are feeling better. Strep Throat is just miserable. Madeline and Hannah are just too cute.
Madeline is growing fast! Aren't their laughs the best?! I could spend all day giggling with AK. I love the sound of her laugh. Glad to hear you're feeling better.
Cute pictures! So glad you are all doing well. Ours have been bathing together for months now, and it's probably their favorite time of the day - they have so much fun!
