4 months and growing

My sweet little kate'r bug is getting so big! She will smile at anyone who talks to her and laughs easily! She likes to rub her big toes together (Our peditrician says it's a comfort mechanism). I can't keep socks on her, even if I pull them up to her thighs. She just kicks them off. I have invested in shoes to keep her socks on and altough they are cute, it is one more accessory to put on her in the mornings and keep putting back on as she gets out of them. But they keep her feet warm. She has just started to notice people eating and will watch you intently as you eat. She also has stared to notice the TV. I used to sit down at nights and watch my shows to nurse her, but she won't nurse, she'll turn her head and would rather watch the light box with moving pictures! (I have been getting some good reading in!) She is strong, she has always been strong. Since day 1 at the hospital she would curl her legs into her chest and roll to the side. And although she would rather be held, when I put her down she likes to scoot herself sideways on the floor on her back. (I am soo in trouble as soon as she can REALLY move!) She is not sleeping through the night yet, but she has her own room now. We moved the older 2 kids together so we can let Kate learn to sleep longer without waking her siblings. I have yet to do this, I find that I enjoy my alone time with her in the quiet of the night, even if I do fall asleep in the chair holding her and wake up with a kink in my neck! Or have her fall asleep next to me in bed. She is my tender girl, and I look back at these last 4 months and can't imagine life without her, she seems to have always been here!
