Linnea's 4 month States

Linnea had her well check up Tuesday and she's doing well. She did get a little fever with her shots yesterday and I tried to give her Tylenol which she didn't take very well but she's doing fine today. Oh and her recent trick is rolling from her back to her belly! Here are her stats:

Weight: 18 pounds 4 ounces-Off the charts
Height: 26.75 inches-Off the charts
Head Circumference: 16.5 inches-80%

So she's just like our others!! Big, tall and their was always in about the 75-85%. Love our little butterball!

Linnea update-4 months!!

Linnea is officially 4 months today!! In some ways time flies in another way it feels like she's been with us forever!! We love our little (well she's not so little!!) butterball (This has become one of her nicknames. At 4 months Linnea

•  still does not like her car seat if she's awake. She tolerates it a little bit better than a month ago but still doesn't love it. We'll see how our long car trips this summer go!
•  grabs objects put in front of her and can hold on to them for awhile. She also shakes her rattle and puts lots of objects in her mouth. Her favorite thing to put in her mouth is still her hands.
• still wakes up once sometimes twice a night to eat.(She has slept through the night though about 6 or 7 times.)I really don't think she needs to eat in the middle of the night anymore. I'm going to talk to the pediatrician about it at her checkup.
• Consistently rolls onto her side and can move several feet on her back though I don't think it's really on purpose. She just kicks a lot.
• Takes 3 naps a day
• Loves to be held
• Loves to watch the kids dance
• Is happy and content almost always as long as her needs are met. But wow she can scream when she's hungry, tired, or wants you to pick her up!
• Doesn't care much for tummy time
• Has rolled over twice from her belly to her back (but once it was at 3 weeks and the other at a month and a half so I don't totally count it)
• Has learned how to squeal 
• Loves to smile
• Laughs
• Loves to be naked in just a diaper
• Loves going to new places and looking around
• Has gone swimming and loved it
• Loves going outside
• Likes her baby bjorn now
• Likes to look at lights, fans and bright patterns
• Smiles and looks at other babies

This is a picture Savanna drew for Linnea today for being 4 months. She's so cute. She kept singing "Happy Birthday Linnea!!" In case you can't read it says "Linnea you are the prettiest baby I ever seen!"

Here's a picture I snapped of Linnea today. I know I'm biased but isn't she adorable?

Update with pictures

So I have been needing to update the blog for awhile. I did try to update it several times and the website wasn't working and I couldn't upload my pictures but now it is so here is our little update for the last month with some pictures. Enjoy!

Clark's music concert

Clark on his way to a date with Mom at Chucky Cheese

Sunday afternoon nap (This rarely happens. He was waking up earlier for a little awhile because of it getting light earlier but black out fabric solved that!)

Bedtime stories with Uncle Spenser

Tummy time with Uncle Spenser

So hilarious. I went in to check on Clark before I went to bed like I always do and found him like this. Funny kid!

Fun at Thanksgiving Point Gardens

Clark loves his little sister!

Fun barbecue at Uncle Spenser and Jonathan's house-Clark with Spenser's girlfriend, Kristine

Fun birthday party for Holland!

Happy Mother's Day! I was spoiled with gifts and everyone doing nice things for me all day!

They love playing with their baby sister!

Fun visit from my friends, Grace and her kids! (Our oldest kids-Savanna and Evie were born on the same day two weeks early. We had the same due date! We were good friends in our BYU married ward and they moved away several years ago. It was so great to see them!)

Savanna's preschool graduation! She loves preschool. She's lucky her preschool teacher's doing an extra month of preschool in June!

Idaho trip-Now this was a fun trip! No really it actually was even though it was a bit of a disaster. We went this past weekend from the 25th to the 28th to celebrate TC's sister's baby blessing and my cousin's daughter's graduation from high school. Unfortunately we all got bad colds. The kids seemed to feel fine but TC and I were feeling pretty crummy and I ended up with a sinus infection. Then Clark managed to fall out of his bed Saturday night in the hotel while he was sleeping and sliced his eye on an end table and needed 7 stitches. It was definetely a memorable trip!

Here's my cousin, Michael with Linnea

Marisha's house after the baby blessing: The kids loved the car wash next to their house and cheered every time one came out after being washed!

New baby girls! TC sisters and I- Apryl and Sariah (born May 6th, 2013), Marisha and Hurley (born April 29th, 2013) and Linnea and I (born February 6th, 2013)

TC's parents with 5 out of their 8 grandkids

Grandpa and Linnea

Love this picture! I caught Linnea's little laugh after TC threw her up a bit in the air.

Relaxing at the hotel after a long day

Memorial Day-Spent it with my family in Idaho (my parents were out for the graduation as well). There is a high school there where they put up crosses for all those killed over the past years in the military service. It was quite touching and sad to be there.

Savanna'a Dance and Gym Recital

Fun at Spencer's birthday party

Clark's music concert-sorry some of these got out of order somehow and I'm just not going to spend the time fixing it.

We love our little sister!

This was on TC's and I's anniversary. Clark really enjoyed his corn dog!

They told me they were pirates!
