Our "Big Girl"

Chris calls Rylee "Big Girl" and she kicks, smiles, and laughs. She loves it!




Rylee is also starting to enjoy sitting up and grabbing for toys.

She sings, talks, or chants, herself to sleep. It's fun to listen to her talk.

4 Months

Rylee is 4 months already! She had another set of immunizations. I hate immunizations! She sleeps horribly for the next few nights.

We're working really hard to get a sleep schedule and routine going for her. She does not take very good naps during the day. When she woke up last night, we let her cry herself back to sleep twice. It's a hard thing to do. But she woke up very happy this morning. We'll keep trying to encourage longer sleep periods at night and more consistent daytime napping. Chris & I need it!

She drools a lot, but doesn't seem to be getting teeth yet. I'm glad!


She sure loves her daddy! She falls asleep in his arms whenever she can.


She wants to sit up. She tries on her own. It's pretty entertaining. She enjoys sitting in her chair for a few minutes, but then she gets bored and wants to do something else. She gets bored very quickly!

She's such a happy baby, it's easy to love her.


She's been watching college basketball with her dad and Grandpa Mortensen. We love when he comes to visit! Grandma Francom came to visit, but of course we didn't get any pictures. Dang it! Hopefully she'll come visit again soon and I'll remember to pull out the camera.
