Blessed Birds: Monthly Update {3 months old}

Lilly Rose turned 3 months old today. It's hard to believe 3 months have passed and my baby is no longer a newborn. She is growing so much and changing by the minute. It's truly amazing how fast little ones grow and learn. Here's a little of what we're up to:

-- Lilly found her tongue and likes to roll it around, I think she's fascinated with it. This promotes drool thus she's becoming a drooling baby.

-- Showing signs of independence already! Lilly definitely likes to keep busy, there's no chill and easy-going baby in our house right now.

-- Continues to sleep though the night in her crib but dropping more of her day naps. Today was the first day she didn't sleep more than 15 minutes at a time (and I think she only took 3 of those short cat naps). Luckily, she was so exhausted from being up all day she went down at 9:45, which never happens.

-- Favorite things right now: bath time, sing time with daddy, giggling with mommy during play time, strolls in the neighborhood, night time Bible stories and standing up - she really has strong little legs already. Oh, cannot forget that she's really loving her hair brushed. I get the biggest smile and coo when we brush her hair.

-- Week 12 (last week) we moved up to size one diapers and I put most of the NB clothes away. Today though Lilly wore a NB outfit, depends on the cut and brand.

-- We are still nursing and supplementing with 4 oz bottles and I am pretty positive she will be a great eater because it seems like we do a lot of feeding.

Happy 3 months Lilly Rose, life is so much more fun with you in it!

Happy girl in the mornings

I was singing, "happy 3 month birthday lilly rose" here before changing her diaper :)

Taking her monthly bear picture for Papa, wearing my newborn dress from Aunt Rosie. She would not smile while taking these pictures today. Wouldn't you know I got all smiles once I took her out of the dress and put the camera down! ;)
