Today, Norah is 4 months old. And she continues to be such a sweet baby who eats and sleeps well, and seems to be a happy, healthy girl.This month hasn't brought about any major milestones, but rather, it's been a refinement of many things: She's stronger on her tummy and she tolerates it for longer periods of time now. She sits propped up better. And she reaches for and grasps things with better and better control. And, everything she grabs goes into her incredibly drooly mouth.
She is also "talking" up a storm now -- lots of baby babble that sounds mostly like a hybrid of a cat and a pterodactyl -- and recently, she's been sticking her tongue out and trying to make sounds. I can't quite describe it very well, and I have failed to get it on video so far, but it's pretty darn cute to watch her experimenting with talk. And we have lots of good "conversations" :)
The last thing that has been significant this month is her continuing interest in the world around her. She turns to see us when we talk, and we can see her concentrating on watching, hearing, and touching things. She has even taken a keen interest in watching Scooter, and we've even seen her reaching out to him in an attempt to touch him.
And, of course, she remains as cute as ever:
In running news, I got up early this morning for a 4 miler. It went well, and I finished it in 43:25. It was again incredibly humid out, and there was fog! We don't have fog very often here in FL -- but the effect was kind of fun, kind of like running through a cloud.

Great job on the morning 4 miler!
What a cutey pie! Now I'm curious, just how does a pterodactyl sound? Good job on the 4 miles.
How did I totally miss the post of Norah in her Santa Suit??? Too cute...Good job on your morning jaunts...good for you.

I can't believe she is 4 months. How adorable!
She is getting cuter & cuter. It must be such a treat watching her discover new things every day.
Nice job on the four!
Norah is so cute! So glad to hear things are going well. So are you going to keep running her age? You'll be ready for a marathon soon.
You know, most babies are actually ugly. Your Norah, however, is very adorable. Well done producing a good-looking kid. :)
Oh man she is such a cutie Jess! Glad to hear she's happy and healthy!
Look at those big baby cheeks - very cute.
Really? 4 months old already? Wow! She is just so cute and it sounds like you guys are doing great!
Awesome job on the 4 miler, running in fog is fun!
I have a friend with a 1 year old who also refers to the noises she makes as a pterodactyl. Funny!
