Mary Kate turned 4 months old last Friday and we went for our 4 month check up yesterday. I am loving every minute with her! She is more of a mama's girl than Anne Cambria was at this age. She just smiles and talks all the time. She laughed out load on April 23 while my mom was playing with her. It was precious! She is still sleeping really well at night and her nap pattern is much better. Nap "boot camp" was worth it. She is taking naps from around 9:30am-11:30am, 2:00pm-4:00pm and a cat nap from 5:30pm-6:00pm. She still goes to bed around 8:00pm, but sometimes she will fall asleep at 7:45pm. She is only taking four 8oz bottles a day. We tried rice cereal right after she turned 16 weeks and it upset her tummy SO bad. Dr. Ivancic said we could try it again now or wait a few more weeks. He said until she is 6months that all she really needs is milk anyways! I am going to wait a few more weeks because her sweet little tummy was just so upset. As for milestones are concerned, we are consistently rolling from stomach to back and we can almost roll from back to stomach. Dr. Ivancic said she was a bit ahead of schedule as far as rolling is concerned. Mary Kate can grasp objects with her hands and pull them towards her face as well! She has great head control now and LOVES sitting in the bumbo and jumperoo. I guess the view is better. ;) She still doesn't care for tummy time, so now she just rolls herself over when she is tired of it ha! She loves watching TV too! Mary Kate hasn't grabbed her feet yet, but she stares at them a lot now. I figure she'll reach for them in the next week or two. We got all of our vaccinations yesterday and she only cried for a few seconds! Bless her heart! :( Here are our stats:

I couldn't add all the pictures from my camera due to my laptop being on the verge of crashing! I'm heading to Computer Universe this week to get it fixed and will upload more pictures. Here is one from my iPhone! :)
Finally, here are pictures from my camera!
