LAURA CANNAN

Four Months with Charlotte

in Littles on 12/03/18

This past month has been the most fun by far! Charlotte is the happiest, smiliest baby and it truly melts our heart! I know I keep saying this, but every day just keeps getting better and more fun!

This month flew by! We took Charlotte on a 5 hour road trip for Thanksgiving and she was literally an angel. I woke her up to feed her on the way there and back, and other than that she slept the entire time. I brought all kinds of toys and books to entertain her in the car, but never even needed them! We had so much fun visiting family and it really is the best feeling to see your family loving on your baby and how much joy she brings to everyone.

Changes

As soon as Charlotte hit 3 months old, she started drooling like crazy and her teething stage has begun. I can’t feel any teeth trying to come through, but she is now chewing on everything. It is truly crazy to watch your baby learn new skills overnight. She has started to really love toys, grabs them easily, plays with them, and of course puts them in her mouth.

Favorite Products

Charlotte is still obsessed with her kick-and-play piano, I know I’ve said it countless times – but it really is the best toy I have bought her. I put her on this when I need 20 minutes to shower, clean up, etc. and it really keeps her entertained. When I put her on it, she instantly bursts into a smile like she has missed it! She loves books, I will link a few of her favorites below. I also just got her this moose and she is obsessed, it now goes everywhere with us. I almost forgot – we also just got her this chair and she loves it. Now that she can hold her head up pretty well, she wants to see everything going on and we are starting to use this more than the Boppy lounger – even though we do still use it on the couch or our bed.

Schedule
Her schedule has been so consistent this month! Having a routine has made all of our lives so easy and it makes Charlotte such a happy baby. I think it is one of the most important things you can implement!
Her feed schedule now is almost 100% consistent every day:
7:30 AM/ 10:30 AM/ 1:30 PM/ 4:30 PM/ 7:00 PM/ 9:00 PM – then she goes to bed
We followed her schedule spot on while we were on our trip and I could tell a huge difference from the last time we traveled. So many times when she would cry in the past, we would think oh she must be hungry – but a lot of the time I think she was just over tired and we didn’t realize! If you need to set an alarm on your phone to be consistent – that can really help! 🙂
How I am Feeling
Anyone else feeling so overwhelmed with how much there is to do in November and December?! Trying to get anything done with a baby is so much harder than I imagined. The laundry may not always be done and my house may never be clean again, but this is the season of life we are in and I am embracing it!! 🙂 I finally got my Christmas tree (almost) finished today and it is such a relief. I absolutely love this time of year and am trying to relax and enjoy it instead of stress!
This month has been so much fun and we are soaking up every second of baby snuggles while we can! Also, praying she skips right over the dreaded four month sleep regression!
xo,
Laura
