Somebody turned 4 months old today.
In the past 4 months, we have seen a lot of this:
A VERY LARGE and challenging amount of it.
So, we have been beyond thrilled that lately, we have been seeing much more of THIS:
Thanks to good 'ol Zantac, and the passage of a bit of time, Bethany has become a much more content little girl.
And we are very glad about that. As is she.
She remains petite and small at 11.5 pounds, finally filling into 0-3 month sized clothing.
She is rather talkative and communicative to everyone willing to chat with her.
She is quick to return a sweet little smile.
Her eyes sparkle now with more happiness where once they only sparkled with sad tears.
She is thoughtful and contemplative, as she watches all the bustling activity around her.
She is interested in all she can see, and enjoys spending time watching the butterflies flit above her head.
She is soft and still fuzzy, and has such a wonderful, delicious baby smell.
And STRONG! This girl tries to sit up whenever possible, and has been "crawling" since her third week on her belly. She is just a poke shy of rolling over.
Gone are her preemie/fetal looks, and in their place is emerging a rather beautiful little girl.
Funny faces, with raspberry noises.
Her sense of humor and joy for life are emerging.
And now, when we are asked how Bethany is doing, it is a pleasure to say, "She is simply lovely."
Happy 4 Month Birthday, Baby Bethany!!!!
