Taelor is 4 months old

Our little baby girl is already 4 months old. Time is sure going by so fast. Taelor is such a cutie, we just love her and everything she does. At her 4 month appointment she weighed 14lbs 11oz and is 24 1/2 inches. She can now roll over both ways and is getting to be really good at it. I think she just likes to show off for us. Her new favorite toy is her exersaucer. The first time we put her in it, she had no clue what to do, but now she grabs all the toys and they go straight to her mouth. Almost everything, including her hands goes to her mouth now. She is a drooling queen!! I have to keep a bib on her most of the time as her clothes get soaked. Her new thing is to blow bubbles and she sure blows lots of them. Some of Taelor's funny moments is when she spits up on daddy, she always manages to get him really good. Unlike mommy, daddy has to change his clothes anytime a drop of spit up lands on him. I guess I have gotten used to a little spit up here and there on my clothes or else I would be going through a lot of clothes in a day.
Taelor is such a joy to be around. She laughs (especially at herself in the mirror), coos, smiles and talks all the time. She is still full of lots of energy and her head never stops moving, looking at anything and everything she can focus on. She is attached to her little pink blankie already. She has to have it to sleep with, it is too cute. She grabs it with her little hand and puts it right up to her cheek, while the other hand rubs her eyes, it is the cutest thing to see. Taelor has also found her feet. She loves to play with them and tries to get them in her mouth but can't quite get them fully in there. Taelor is such a determined little girl. She tries so hard to do everything and gets frustrated when she can't do something. Our little missy is getting quite good at doing the back arch especially when you are trying to get her in her carseat and she doesn't want to be in there. She is so strong. I really think she is going to over power me soon.
All in all it has been another wonderful month of parenthood. We are so in love with Taelor and she brings so much to our house and our lives. We love to see her developments and get so excited whenever she does something new. She is just too cute for words (at least we think so).
As for us, we are doing good. Since the last update, Sauls' dad passed away. But with the help, love and support of our family and friends we are able to continue with life. Thank you to everyone for all your support. He was such a great Grandpa to Taelor and loved her to pieces. He will be extremely missed. I have enjoyed the last 4 months of my life staying at home with Taelor, it has been amazing being a mom and I would love to be a stay at home mommy, but unfortunately I will be going back to work tomorrow (Thursday the 10th). Yes, I am extremely sad, but I know I will be fine or at least I hope I will be. At least I know Taelor will be in great hands with my sister Vanessa and my best friend Tally. I will keep you posted on the next update on how I have adjusted to going back to work. Other than that, we are doing good. Just falling more and more in love with our little girl. We look forward to the next month of Taelor's life!
Hope everyone has a wonderful May and a Happy Mother's Day to all the wonderful mothers out there. I am so excited, this is my first Mother's Day!!!
