.:Harper–Four Months:.

Four months! Wow!

SDC10038

Harper has just turned into the happiest, sweetest little baby. She always has a smile for you! Doesn’t that dimple just kill you?

Harper loves to interact with people. She’s turned into quite the talker, and we have lots of little conversations throughout the day. Sometimes it’s a lower sound, other times she squeals. I can’t get enough of hearing it; it never gets old! She also still enjoys my singing, so I love getting a reaction out of her that way.

She really has become more independent lately. I usually rotate her through her play mat, chair, and swing throughout the day. She often just ends up watching her sisters run around, being all wild! She’ll be in the thick of it soon enough!

Harper is not a fan of the Bumbo yet. Which means I need to put her in it more. She doesn’t last much longer than a few minutes before she’s wanting out.

She is rolling over from tummy to back about 60-70% of the time. Sometimes she gets stuck still, though. She’s really close – I think anyway – to going from back to tummy. She rolls up on her side, and stretches her head and neck and looks like she’s about there. No more leaving her on the couch or changing table!



Harper girl likes her binky fine enough, but what she really loves is sucking on her hands. She is always getting those hands up by her face, even when she’s swaddled. She also gets a grip on things – not on purpose – but if it touches her hand, she grabs it, and it’s tough to get her to let go!

Reece and Remi are super interested in Harper all of the sudden. They are constantly giving in her face, talking to her, smiling at her, and just loving on her. It’s really sweet. I know they are going to be the best of friends!

Harper is still a nuzzler, but not quite as much as she was before. Probably just because she is starting to get more interested in what’s going on around her. But when it’s time to start winding down to go to sleep, she’s nuzzling and rubbing her face into you.

Her schedule is about the same as it was. I’ve been trying to get her doing more set naps when we are at home. She still wakes up after 45 minutes. Sometimes, if I go in right away and rock her, she’ll go back to sleep. Reece and Remi both started taking better naps around four months old, so I’m hoping it starts soon! She generally only gets up once during the nite, and while it’s not that bad, I sure wouldn’t mind if she wanted to stop that.

She’s just our beautiful, sweet, little babe and I think it’s safe to say that we’re all enamored with her.
