Rosie is four months old

Rosie is four months old today! She weighs 10 pounds, 10 ounces (<1st percentile), is 23.25 inches long (7th percentile and 35% of the way to my adult height), and her head circumference is 16 inches (49th percentile). Rosie is very alert much of the time, but still takes many naps a day at unpredictable times. She started going to bed earlier - at around 7:30 - this past week. She has her moments when she is calm, but she still seems a bit more high strung than her brother, and her cry is definitely louder and more desperate, causing her to sometimes command a bit more attention than him. She still eats only once during the night. She loves her pacifier, and is getting much better at keeping it in her mouth. Rosie has a mild cough this month, but nothing like her brother's. Rosie has a favorite bouncer chair in the mornings that vibrates, and loves being set down in it to stare up at the little elephant, lion, and zebra suspended above it. She gets very excited, smiles, kicks, and seems to almost laugh at times! This is my favorite time to watch her because she shows so much emotion, which has been to this point quite uncharacteristic of these babies (probably due to their prematurity). Rosie has recently started holding on to rings and enjoys chewing on them. So far, she also does great in the car!
