Blue Eyed Girl
This child was sent straight from Heaven.
Some of the ways in which Millie is unique in our family:
She has blue eyes. I'll be shocked if she doesn't keep them.
She has that awesome natural mohawk.
She loves to suck on her fingers.
She goes to sleep on her own. Often without any crying whatsoever.
She takes two long naps during the day. At predictable times.
She will drink from a bottle.
Uses but doesn't require a pacifier.
Never liked a swing.

Look at that cute face. Millie is 4 months old now. She weighs 13 lbs 12 oz (which is exactly the 50th percentile). All of my kids had that great double chin, but hers is pretty prominent right now in life. ;) I've also noticed a few small dots on her forehead that I believe are a little birthmark. She can roll from stomach to back (you know that from a previous post) and now from back to stomach - except that her arm usually stays stuck underneath her that way. She is getting better control of her hand movements and will grab for toys and bring them to her mouth. She watches intently when I eat and will reach for things that are near her. I have to watch my plate when she's on my lap. She is a real mover - especially in her crib. She rolls over and scoots so it's totally unpredictable where she'll end up. Her scooting doesn't seem very controlled, but she can travel. When she sleeps, she loves to grab her blanket and put it right in front of her face and suck her middle two fingers or first two fingers.
I'm not sure why we were blessed with such a sweet, sweet baby. But I am not taking it for granted. I am truly grateful and try to enjoy as many small moments with her as I can.

I love this post, thanks for sharing. I love how you document things like this. I haven't done taht for ivy. I feel bad about that. oh well. at least I have photos. :) love your updates. you're the best in the west, and I mean that!
She is so adorable! I think its great to see how she is growing, not just visually but being able to read about which milestones she's reached. Definitely a sweet spirit!
Thank you so much for the tip about the cradle cap! I'll have to keep a watch on it. I haven't noticed any flaking yet, but that doesn't mean it won't come!
You ARE so blessed. She is such a sweet baby.
How can I order one of those?
She is a doll!
Oh yes, she's straight from heaven......such a sweet angel you have.
