4 months!

One year ago today Chris and I were at GBMC having procedures done to conceive our little baby. The doctors had tried to plan my shot schedule to avoid July 4th, but my body had other ideas! And Lauren was born exactly 8 months later! She's now 10lb 4oz, gaining really well!
In the last couple weeks she's changed a lot. She's "talking" like crazy and making more facial expressions. She started rolling over "for real" last week. She'd rolled from back to front at two months, just twice and rolled from front to back a couple times a couple weeks ago, but that seemed more like gravity. Last week she started rolling both directions like crazy and on her tummy she scoots around in circles and tries to get her legs under her. It's crazy to think she'll be mobile soon!
She's slept through the night a couple of times, which is so exciting! I keep trying to recreate how the evenings went on those nights, to help her do it again, but no luck so far.
She definitely has a mind of her own. Anytime I try to encourage a behavior she fights me all the way, until it's her idea to do it! Chris says its the redhead in her, even if she doesn't actually have red hair.
She's still in some 0-3 month clothes, but able to wear some 3 month things too, especially sleepers. The reflux seems to be mostly under control, thank goodness and I can't wait til she's done taking the medicine she hates!
