Matson Family Memories: 4 Month Update

So now that Braelyn is 4 months old, I thought that I would give an update on how she is doing. At her doctor's appointment on Friday, she weighed 12 pounds 11 ounces and was 24 inches long. her 3 month clothes are fitting great except for the fact that her jackets are a bit short on her torso because it is so long. She is starting to get the baby chubb and it makes me sad because it means she is growing up.

As my previous post says, Braelyn is now rolling over. Only from her back to her tummy though. She rolls to her belly and a couple minutes later she crys because she is stuck... It is so much fun to see her interact with Tyler and me. She is always happy and giggles for us. It is also fun to listen to her jabber to herself. She grabs toys now, and she loves her toy keys.

I've tried giving her rice cereal a couple times, but she isn't so sure what she thinks of it. The last couple of days, however, she has been watching me eat and opening her mouth with mine and acting as though she is chewing. It's really cute and funny to watch.

Her favorite game right now is swinging with daddy. She giggles everytime. She also likes to "bouncy bouncy bouncy" on the bed. Tyler puts a hand on either side of her and bounces the bed a little bit. It's pretty silly. She has been spending more time with daddy since I have gone back to work. I think she enjoys it, but she really misses her mommy. Tyler tries to keep her awake so I can see her when I get home. She gets a huge smile on her face, no matter how tired she is when I get to see her. It makes my whole evening.

I can't believe how fast the time has gone. She is so precious and such a blessing in our lives. We love her and can't imagine our lives without our little Braelyn Rose.

We were at Grandma Mickelsen's house for Adri and Kelsee's combined baby shower. This was a super cute picture with Braelyn, Bekah, and Trinity.
