The Cook Clan: March 2014

She’s AWAKE! (4 Months OLD)

Caroline is becoming more and more alert by the day. Giggling, laughing, smiles and coos are keeping the Cook household entertained!! We had our 4 Month checkup and Dr. Todd says all is good, very tall 90% and weight only 60% which baffles me because she’s a chucky monkey. She’s still eating every 3 hours until 7-7:30 pm she takes her last 6 oz. Bottle and goes down for bed until 6:30 am !! –she could probably sleep later, but getting ready in the morning and getting both girls to Amber’s our mornings start a little earlier. – No complaints she’s a happy happy baby and even on the weekend she may make it to 7-7:30 am.

Ellie loves her new Truck... (just like her Daddy)

We try and make it to the Zoo couple times a month. Not sure Caroline really cares but Ellie loves seeing the Monkeys and Gorilla.

Typical Weeknight before bed, both girls lounging around. -Sofia is more than likely on the TV

We do try and make it to the play ground after work for a little while to let Ellie and David to get out some extra energy

Still the best Big Sister to Caroline.

Girls are getting ready for the CUP!

Who needs clothes when you have a Beaufort Bonnetts

Caroline did amazing.

A little chilly at first, but a great day for the cup with the Calhouns!

4 Month Check up and doing well!

90% Height 60% Weight

My angels!

-I honestly could not have ask for better girls and sisters :)

3 Months and growing...

Is this not the sweetest face ever!

Love a baby right after a bath, and luckily Caroline loves baths. She just hangs out in the water smiling and cooing while she gets a good wash down.

Caroline is up to 6 oz per feeding and completly dropped the midnight AND 3-4 am feeding. I guess she eats well during the day still on a 3-4 hour schedule.

Such a peaceful sleeper... The only kicker is the PACI... Still too young to be able to grab the paci, if it falls out in the middle of the night (usually between 12-4 am) she needs someone to put it back in. Not complaining because she goes right back to sleep but several times a night still makes for long work days.

Retake... The 1st Picture is Ellie at 3 months and the 2nd Picture is Caroline at 3 months in the exact same place (the Palmetto has grown significantly in little less than 2 years!)

I say it over and over but the time is flying by and seems faster each time. :(

Ellie is still the sweetest big sister always trying to help and checking on baby sissy.

"Sissy Okay?" "Paci, sissy need paci, OKAY!"

Always fun to dress them the same too!! (Easier now when they do not get an option...)

We also celebrated Ellie's 2nd birthday!

The happiest lil girl ever in the morning... Cannot complain about the 5:45 -6 AM feeding with this adorable lil grin!! The chuckles just melt my heart!

Caroline made it in the bulletin at Church!!

BEST FRIENDS! <3

The past three months have been great. She is doing well with Amber during the day while I am back at work, so on the weekend it's hard to let her go...

SOME ADDITIONAL PICTURES DURING THE MONTH:

After church snuggles from my girls!

Celebrating Ellie on her actual Birthday.. The bottom picture was Ellie one day old and one year old :) How they change in a matter of a year just is astonishing!
