M turned 4 months old last Thursday. She weighs 13 pounds 15 ounces (50%) and is 24.5 inches long (50%). Her head circumference is also in the 50%, so right now she is a perfectly proportionate baby. She definitely loves her mommy's milk. M is doing wonderful. She is such a happy baby. She loves to sit up in her Bumbo, watch her big sister, have books read to her, reach for and pick up toys, and put her hands and toys in her mouth. She also loves to talk, as you can see in the video. In the background you will hear G say, "She talks a lot Mommy." I wonder who she gets all the talking from!
We have chosen not to start cereal yet and will exclusively breast feed until at least 6 months of age.
Research has shown that delaying the start of solid foods keeps breast milk as the primary nutrition for the infant and supports optimal growth and development. Breast milk is the milk of love.

she is ADORABLE:) Time passes so FAST! I will just be nursing till 6 months too--at least I plan on it:)
I love when Gabby says "She talks a lot mommy"...that is hilarious!
Love it! She is gorgeous! Kouper is 8 months and still prefers mommy's milk. He'll eat a few bites here and there, but that's about it! Lots of people put cereal in the bottle at 4 months in hopes the baby will sleep more, argh what are they thinking?! Good job Kristen! You're a great mommy!
I don't have your e-mail saved I'd love to meet ya at the mall next week---email me:)

I can't believe how big she is getting. She is so sweet in those pictures.
The video is so precious. I watch and listen to it every day. It helps with my granddaughter fix.
