Addie turned 4 months old on Black Friday. Since she was sick and at the doctor's office, we were able to get an "office weight". She is 16 lbs. 7 oz. Her 4 month well baby visit isn't for another 1 1/2 weeks so we'll get the rest of the numbers then. She rolled over from front to back once about 2 weeks ago but it was just a fluke. She's getting ready to roll from her back to her front but isn't quite there yet. It's going to happen any day now. She has really found her hands. Last night, as she laid in her crib while I was getting her in her pjs, she watched her hand from an outstretched position all the way to her mouth. It was like she was thinking, "Wow, I can work this thing all on my own!". She was also reaching out for her toys a little and reached out for a blanket and pulled it to her mouth. How exciting!!!

Olivia is growing and growing too. She's getting taller and skinnier every day and she continues to amaze us with how smart she is and how much she's learning. She can count to 20 and only misses one number. For some reason she doesn't like the number 14 or 15. I can't remember which she misses....plus some sound a lot alike. She can also make it all the way through her ABCs and sings several songs. For some reason, she loves to sing "Happy Birthday". She'll sing it over and over and over. You should hear her read the book "Polar Bear, Polar Bear". Too cute!!!! We're still working on the potty training. We know it'll happen one day. For now, we keep trying and keep cheering every time it does happen.
