Fun in the Bed

Mommy lets me play in my crib sometimes just so I can move around and have fun. Sometimes she just props me up for pictures...

Out For a Walk

Mommy took me on a walk the other day and since it was sunny she found me a hat to wear. I thought I'd pose for a few pictures before we went out.

3 Months

Height: About 25 inches

Weight: 15 lbs.

I'm a quarter of a year old! Mommy and Daddy think time have gone vby way too fast, but I am learning new things every day. I'm able to sit up with some help but sometimes topple over. I love by tummy time and I just squeel and kick, kick, kick - I'll make a move soon, I can feel it!

I'm eating 4 times a day - 8 oz, each time (I know it seems like a lot for my little tummy, but I take after my mommy and love food)! I have a bedtime routine where I eat, take a bath (my fave!!), read a bedtime story and go to bed. I'm being "trained" to sooth myself and I'm doing a good job. My parents just put me in my crib and as long as I have my paci, I'm good and out within minutes :) I have a feeling the paci thing will end soon...

Mommy tried to give me rice cereal twice, but I spit it out then had a belly ache. She says we will try in another month or so.

I now can reach most everything that is put in front of me. I even grab and shake some of the toys. I've found also, that my hand is quite tasty.

My friend, Rylee, is going to be a big sister and we will get to watch Amanda's tummy grow like Rylee did with my mommy's tummy when I was in there :)

I got to have my first Christmas and visit from Santa. I got some books and toys and clothes - everything a 3 months old needs!!

My first trip to Maggiano's

Yesterday we went out to eat dinner and I fell asleep just as everyone was finishing eating. Mommy finally put me down and got to eat her food :)

Holidays

Mommy took me to see Santa's Workshop and I got to see him and some of the reindeer!!

I had "Cookies with Santa" and got to sit on his lap. Mommy was so proud and took tons of pictures!

We had a little holiday get together with Mommies friends and their kiddos. Here are 2 of my friends, including my BFF Rylee. She is going to be a big sister!!!

We made a gingerbread house :)

Our Christmas tree is covered with snowflakes. I love looking at them!

Mommy tried to fit me in my stocking, but I'm too big. Taking a picture next to it was the next best thing :)

Snow!!

December 4, 2009

It snowed while Mommy was at work, but Daddy set up the tripod and got some good shots. Here are a few:

Mommy finally got home and the second wave of snow hit! We got to share a white winter together!!

2 Months

Height: 24 inches (90-97%)

Weight: 11 lbs. 15 oz. (75%)

I'm 2 months old today. I was supposed to go to my doctor last week to get my shots, but it snowed and I have to go tomorrow now. I don't have official statistics for today, but Iwill tomorrow.

This month has flown by. Mommy went back to work so I have been spending a lot of quality time with Daddy and Nana. I like being on my tummy a little more because I can fully turn my head from side to side and don't get stuck. I'm starting to push up with my arms so I may be able to roll over soon.

I still love to be swaddled at night. I like my swing, but not as much as I used to because I have a bouncer that is great!! I'm starting to reach for things that are close. I laugh a LOT and smile constantly! My favorite game is sticking my tongue out and making noises. I still love to play on my Einstein mat too. The rattle is fun to hit. When I'm on my tummy, I can raise my head up and do mini push-ups!

I'm on pretty routine schedule now, going to bed around 9:30 or 10 and waking up between 5 and 6 every morning. I'm eating 6 ounces every 4 or 5 hours now, but go longer at night. I've started taking Zantac since I seem to spit up a lot, but it is much better now!

Every night, Mommy and I pray and thank God for my little life. I'm blessed to have such wonderful friends and family!
