Abby is Four Months Old and...

Yesterday, Abby turned 4 months. Soon after daddy dropped her off at grandma's, grandma called to say that Abby rolled over! She was having tummy time and, as usual, did not like it so much after a few minutes (it's hard work!). Before grandma knew it, Abby had turned herself onto her back. "Ahhh- that's better!" thought Abby.

Abby has enjoyed tummy time a little more with the use of her Boppy, which enables her to see more of the world while she's down on the floor. She'll stay down for quite awhile while on the Boppy. Plus-- she can play the piano while she's down there! Check out the video to see her in action. The pictures of the week feature more shots of tummy time, and Abby's first trip to see daddy play soccer.

We also have to report that our super-sleeping-through-the-night girl has now been up 4 nights in a row in the middle of the night. She is WIDE awake, and just wants to hang out. There doesn't seem to be any particular reason- she just wakes up after about 4 hours of sleep-- like the sun is shining. We're hoping this will be a very brief phase, as we were really spoiled by her sleeping all the way through the night for the last 2 months!

Abby, you are quite the musician! I think I would like to play the piano too. It sounds like you are going through the 4-month wakeful period! This is one issue I actually didn't have, but i hope you start sleeping more soon. You are probably just realizing how much more fun the world is now, so who would want to stay asleep?

Hi Livia!
Yes, I am really interested in the world right now. Sometimes it distracts me from my bottle! I've slept well the past few nights. Mom and dad are happy about that. They keep saying they hope the "phase" is over... whatever that means! Hope you're sleeping well!
Abby

Yes, I have finally started taking decent naps the past week! I'm in a much better mood when I actually get some good sleep during the day (and I still sleep at night too).
