Maci Turns 4 Months!!!!!!!!

The Mondell's have been on the go so much lately and I hate that I don't keep up on the blog more regularly!

Let's see what have we been up to :

Tuesday was Maci's first night without the brace for bed time!!  She has been out of her hip brace for 3 weeks now but was asked to ween out of it by wearing it to bed for 3 weeks.  We are now fully and officially brace Free!!!!

Wednesday I had a happy hour with the mommy and me girls so Maci and her daddy chilled at home - tell me she doesnt look like Clint Jr in this picture?!  Except I don't think Clint ever wore Pink Sparkly Pants :)

Yesterday Maci turned 4 months!!!  Holy cow where did our itty bitty baby go?  We know she is still petite for her age but she is looking much more like a 4 month old infant then newborn! 

Some fun 4 month facts about our lil lady before we share the photo shoot!
  • We guess her to weigh between 11-12 lbs through very rough weight checks at home
  • She has her 4 month appt and shots :( Tuesday morning after the long holiday weekend
  • She wears 3 month clothes and still fits some 0-3 month but all Newborn are packed away!
  • Maci LOVES to Talk - Surprise surprise - Daycare constantly tells me how much she loves talking to the older babies!!!
  • She is still a pacifier kid through and through - her paci saves any melt downs!
  • Maci is already a little stinker and knows how to work both her parents =)
  • The past few weeks toys have become of an interest like her rings, Sophie Giraffe, O ball, baby paper etc - basically anything made for little grabbing
  • The last week, Maci has started to pay more attention when I read her books so we are working on our vocab and with daddy's genes we should start spelling too HA
  • Maci has rolled a few times that we have seen but she seems much more interested in crawling and dragging herself around a blanket
  • She smiles the most for Daddy
  • Her sleeping was GREAT and the last week has been HELL - we will be talking to the pediatrician next week
    • She still goes down easy, always has, but about 4 hours in wakes up and wants to play UGH
  • Her favorite thing to do at daycare is play in a vibrating chair that has toys attached!
  • She LOVES walks in the strollers and is happy to be outside and not just inside malls all day!
  • Things we are waiting for : LAUGHING (gah so close), consistent rolling, grabbing and picking up toys vs being handed them and hair (her current hair situation is a mix of male pattern baldness, rat tail/mullet and all different shades and coloring
Enjoy this lil ham and her many hair bows!!!!!!!










OK MOM - NO MORE PICTURES!!

I promise she does like her walks but you cant tell in these pics =)

Today we are heading to the Zoo for the first time!!!  Looking forward to see if Maci reacts to any animals - she is currently napping in prep - pics to follow!!!

Lots of Love,
C, K & M

Ps - We miss OH friends and family and cant wait to see as many as possible when we are home for a week starting August 24th!!  Visitors are also always welcomed - MN is the BEST in Spring/Summer!!
