4 months old!

Here are some things about Charlotte at 4 months:
- has let out a few belly laughs and giggles all the time
- loves to stand in your lap
- smiles very freely at all who smile at her
- likes her car seat better than before, even though it is still not her favorite place to be
- still loves to sleep in her swing
- rolls from her back to her stomach constantly, then gets upset when she finds herself on her stomach
- still doesn't like being on her stomach
- still gets swaddled to sleep
- usually naps 45 min. to an hour, 3-4 times a day; every once in a while she will throw in a 2 hour nap
- still wakes up about 2 times to feed in the middle of the night
- starts her last feeding around 8:00 and is usually in bed by 8:45
- has fingernails that grow like crazy! She is always scratching herself :(
- loves to stand in her exersaucer
- has started reaching for toys, but can't hold them for very long
- "talks" all the time; there are times when we can't hear each other talking over her very loud noises!
- has such a wonderful disposition and will usually go with the flow
- sits very well in her Bumbo seat
- has found her feet and grabs them all the time - in the car, on her blanket, while changing her diaper, etc.
- loves Sunday school in the church nursery
- has had her first sleepover with her Grammy and Poppy
