I love putting things in my mouth


Fun little toes go in Eva's mouth. This is now her favorite activity best done in her birthday suit or with a diaper on. Eva is mesmerized by her feet. It is so fun to watch her gain more control over her hands.
Once propped up, Eva is able to sit for a few seconds. So fun! She doesn't even get that mad when she falls over after. It is such a blessing to watch her grow every day. We even started to feed her rice cereal.

Eva's Baptism & 4-Month Checkup

Eva had her baptism on Sunday. She was welcomed into the Christian family by her godmother, Cassandra, and her godfather, Jeremy. She was well behaved when Father pour water over her head. It was a simple Catholic ceremony performed by the priest who married Jamie and I. She wore a baptism gown that was worn by one of Cassy's twin daughters. It was a special day!

Eva also had her 4-month checkup today. She got her second round of shots, which she did very well during. Only cried for a little bit. She is progressing well and hitting all the key milestones.

Vitals:

Height - 25 inches (91 percentile)

Weight - 15 lbs, 13 ounces (88 percentile)

Eva's 4 months old!

Wow how time flies. Our little girl is already four months old. Eva celebrated her 1st Independance day. She was all decked out in red, white and blue.

Happy 4th of July!
Eva is talking all the time. She has also discovered that she can make noises with her lips. It is super funny to her. She laughs at herself when she does it. Also somewhat new is she is really good at rolling over from her back to her tummy.
Eva's feet provide her a constant source of fasicanation. She even has started sucking her toes. Too funny. Speaking of sucking, there is no more thumb sucking. She now sucks her index and middle finger together at the same time.
I leave tonight for Toronto. This is my first trip out of town since she's been born. Jamie will definitely have his hands full. Let's hope it all goes well.
