Christmas Eve

Christmas Eve was spent with my family. The kids ran around like crazy, we ate delicious food, opened presents and had a great time. I have to say the highlight of the night was acting out the nativity story complete with costumes. My brothers new girlfriend, who we had never met, showed up right when we were starting. We had towels on our heads, capes on backs, and one adult on the floor acting like a donkey. It was actually pretty fun, and the kids loved it. Hopefully she doesn't think we are to crazy.

Lila and my nephew sat together and "played" with her present. It was actually pretty funny to watch. He wanted it and kept trying to take it, Lila was not giving it up without a fight.

Matt with his gift. When did we get so old that kitchen appliances are considered a good gift?

4 Months

4 months

12 lbs 5oz
21.5 in

Still loves Daddy more than anyone.
Completey refuses the bottle.
Starting to like the binky but more for a chew toy than to suck on.
Sleeps 10-11 hours at night.
Adores her big sisters and loves to squeal in delight when Lexie plays with her.
Bath time is her favorite, she would stay in the tub all day.
She only looks so chubby because she is so short.
Rolled over for the first time Nov. 9.
Explodes every diaper she poops in.
Her favorite toy is her hands, they are always in her mouth.
She still likes to spend the majority of her awake time in her swing.
Starting to take naps in her crib, but must be swaddled.

I can't believe 4 months has already gone by. Lila is such a blessing to our family. I know it is so cliche but we really can't imagine life without her.

Redondo

Since we had such a beautiful weekend last week we decided to take the kids to Redondo. It is one of their favorite places to go, and I like that it is free. On Saturdays there is a little aquarium that is open to the public. The girls absolutely love going and touching the starfish. They even get to feed them. After the aquarium we went down to the water and let the girls play. They were in heaven!

Shenanigans

This is the kind of stuff that happens while I'm feeding Lila. At first I was mad and sent them straight to their rooms. the more I thought about it the funnier it became. At least it wasn't my walls.

Many faces of Lila
