Maysie is now 4 1/2 months old! She is growing and changing so fast I can hardly keep up. A few weeks ago she rolled over for the first time; now she is always practicing her new trick. She can't quite roll back yet, but I'm sure that's not far behind. She has also been a faucet constantly chomping on those fingers or whatever dares to get close enough to her mouth or in her death grip. No teeth yet, but I expect one or two within a few weeks! I started her on solid foods about two weeks ago. Like her mom, she eats like a champ! She'll open her little baby bird mouth so wide; it's adorable! So far she's eaten sweet potatoes, applesauce, green beans, peas, and rice cereal, and she likes them all. Just recently, she has begun to cry when she notices that I leave the room without her. Maybe on these particular instances she was tired and wanted me, or hungry......it's sweet in a way, but worrisome at the same time knowing that in September she'll be going back to day care. My mom has been keeping her for the last 6 weeks, so she has been getting one on one attention. Mom and I both have been good about allowing her some time to amuse herself while we do chores nearby, but I worry that adjusting to new faces who are not able to provide as much entertainment will be stressful to her. By that time, though, she will be nearly six months old and hopefully sitting up on her own. She'll have new toys to play with and friends to interact with, so maybe it won't be as bad as I fear. Only time will tell I suppose.
Here are a few new pics to enjoy!
