4 1/2 Months Old!

Ok.  So I missed the Official "4" months by a couple of weeks.  I am finding that blogging about Lana takes a back seat to actually taking care of Lana (as does most everything else).  My sweet Lana is just a bit spoiled, but in the absolute best way!  She wants to be entertained constantly, a pattern my wonderful mother has established during the work day.  So, when she is around getting anything done whatsoever is difficult to say the least.

I think Lana is becoming a bit too accustomed to being the only show in town.  It is high time my sister and Uncle Bean worked on giving her a little competition in the near future!!! 

1.  You are turning over now!  And boy, do you know it.

2.  You are the happiest baby I have ever seen.  You smile all the time and laugh constantly at your mommy and granny.

3.  You look just as cute in just a diaper as you do all gussied up and ready to go out on the town. 

4.  You took your first mini-vacay to Gatlinburg this past weekend.  You visited all the essentials...The Peddler, The Apple Barn, Tanger Outlet Mall, and the Smoky Mountain National Park.  And you were a major hit everywhere. 

5.  Your mom is broke from the above-mentioned trip. 

6.  You aren't much of a napper, just like your momma.

7.  You are wearing 6-9 month clothes now.

8.  You weighted 14 lbs. 7 ounces at your 4 month checkup.

9.  You recently met two of your future besties, Isabella and Caleb Hayden, for lunch.  As usual, you were noisier than the adorable 10 month old Hayden twins put together. 

10.  You love to pet your sisters Ally and Karma.  They love to give you sloppy doggy kisses.

11.  Your granny has officially decided she can't part with you and therefore will not return to work.  Mommy and daddy let out a collective sigh of relief knowing you are in such good hands during the day!!!

12.  You love dinner time because that is when you get your solids for the day.  Your favorite is apples and blueberries, but you also love oatmeal cereal with a little maple syrup. 

13.  You have started taking a nightly bath with your mommy which is both of our favorite parts of the day.  We splash around and you practice your kicks.  You will be a great swimmer one day.

14.  Your mommy moved her personal desk and files home so she can spend every possible moment with you.  You still stay with Granny when mommy has court or meetings, and for a couple hours even on work-from-home days.  It helps mommy get done quicker and besides, Granny can't stand to be away from you too much!!!!

 Who could resist this face????????

 Your first snow! As you can see mommy was alot more excited than you were!

 You and your Mimi  :)

 You and daddy in Pigeon Forge.
