3 months old!!!

Oh my gosh has she grown!! Emily is getting so big and she is hitting some pretty impressive milestones! She talks like crazy and loves to reach for everything in sight.  She loves to chuckle, laugh, giggle and smile! She loves to hear her voice and she is content just sitting next to me making all sorts of cute sounds.


Growth and development
  • Still fits into some 3 month clothes.She wears 3-6 month clothes and 6-9 month clothing.
  • Wears size 1 diapers and size Medium in cloth diapers
Appetite
  • Breastfeeds about every 2-3 hours but recently she has been eating every 1.5 hours (growth spurt I think) :)
Motor skills
  • Loves to grab toys that are hanging.
  • She can grasp toys and she loves her Bendy Ball
  • Puts everything she can grab into her mouth...it's pretty cute!
  • She holds her head up (she has been doing that since day 1) and sits up with assistance.  She loves to sit up!!
  • She loves to stare at her fingers and toes.
  • She sucks her hands like crazy and drools!
 Sleep
  • Sleeps 10 hours at night!! She is a fantastic night sleeper!! LOVE IT!
  • She takes about 4 naps a day. We don't have a "schedule"...our schedule is pretty much baby-led at this point.  When she is sleepy, she sleeps.  Sometimes she sleeps for 45mins and sometimes 1.5hours.  We struggle a little with naps right now because I think she is going through a growth spurt.  I try not to let her get overtired but sometimes she just fights the nap..lol.  It's actually kinda cute to listen to her right before she falls asleep...she talks up a storm.
  • She loves to be rocked to sleep and I am okay with that.  Although she has probably become  dependent on it, I don't mind because it won't be forever that I get to rock my baby in my arms.  :)

Other
  • Loves to be held.
  • Loves to be carried by daddy and rocked to sleep by me.
  • Enjoys her bouncer
  • Loves to sit up
  • Loves bath time!
  • Enjoys laying on the changing table!!
  • Loves getting baby massages from mommy and daddy
  • She talks, talks, talks...she loves to hear her voice and makes all sorts of noises.
  • Loves smiling and giggling and chuckling!
  • Sucks on her two middle fingers to self soothe whenever she pleases.
