Mama update: I finally made it out to the dentist and had to fix some fillings. So, mamas, make sure you take good care of your teeth.  I had two cracked cavities. I attribute that to probably grinding my teeth while giving birth or forgetting to wear my mouth guard while taking naps. I'm still losing hair (I talk about it here), but I am getting better at strategizing on how I don't want it to fall all over the place. Braiding my hair has come in handy, as well as keeping my hair in a loose bun.  However, I think things are leveling out because the amount of hair I am losing this month is not like last month's nightmare.

Juniper update:

1. Juniper loves to scream. She screams for excitement and attention. She screams more than she babbles, either way, it's so flipping cute. 

2. She recognizes songs and loves Buenas Noches, Luna. I made up a song I sing to her right before she goes to bed and she smiles every time I sing it.  I started singing this song to her when she was a newborn and it's fun to see how she recognizes it and associates it with going to sleep. I follow her night time feed with Buenas Noches, Luna by Margaret Wise Brown. I love this book. I like that she gets a little bit of Spanish integrated into her day.  The illustrations are classic and somewhat creepy, but I love it. 

3. Drooling, raspberries, and chewing on her hands are her favorite pastime.  Juniper is drooling a lot. She is drooling so much that we have to put a bib on her during the day so she doesn't have a wet chest.  She discovered how to make raspberries and was doing them non-stop for a couple of days.  She prefers to put her hands in her mouth over toys.  She is quite fascinated with her hands and I would find her staring at her hands lying awake in her crib.

4. She rolls to her tummy (preferably the left side) and can sit up with us watching her. She rolled over in her crib for the first time. Justin caught it on the Nest cam. I wish I could have been there to witness it because we practice all day.  Unfortunately, she cannot roll onto her back, so she will often cry telling us she needs help to get on her back.  She can also sit up while using her hands to support herself. 

5. Finally, she sleeps through the night.  I was hesitant about moving from her bassinet to the crib for selfish reasons, but I knew deep down inside she needed more space and peace to sleep longer.  It took her about a week to fully sleep through the night while transitioning to her crib.  She prefers sleeping on her side and she couldn't do that in the bassinet due to limited space.  This began towards the end of her fourth month.
