4 month IS the magic number! You are a totally different baby from a week ago. We can see your cognitive processes developing right before our very eyes! The other day, when you were on your tummy, you were fussing because I guess you didn't want to be there. Then you had an "ah ha" moment where you remembered you knew how to roll over. You did just that and then had a HUGE gummy grin on your face! How funny.
Your sleeping patterns are changing as well. We can now officially say you are able to consistently fall asleep in your crib by yourself. No rocking, no nursing, no nada! Sleep training is going well and we are rapidly seeing the light at the end of the tunnel. We hope you'll start sleeping through the night very soon! Mommy realized that I was being your sleep crutch and have given you more independence to learn to self-soothe.
You also found your screaming voice the other day. I don't mean that you never used to scream. You did but it's because you were uncomfortable, fussing or crying. This screaming voice, however, is one that entertains you! You would scream for no reason and then smile. You are starting to have more control over your vocals! Daddy was very tickled by your new talent.
No longer are you the clingy baby you once used to be. You enjoy playing by yourself these days. Or just lounging on the ground, babbling and looking out the balcony doors. You are so much more aware of your environment and I can see that you are taking every single bit of it in. You are like a sponge!
Oh Isabelle, when people used to tell Mommy "they grow up so fast", I didn't believe it but now I see what they mean. Your personality is developing and you are changing every single day. Now I just want Father Time to stop the clock because this is the cutest time yet!
Love, Mom
Just chillin'
