Whitley 3 Months

Whitley,


You are growing so much and getting big on mommy.  I love you to pieces my beautiful girl!  I tell you that you are beautiful and that I love you everyday and have promised you that I will always do that.  You have turned into a slobber bucket this month.  You slobber and slobber and have begun chewing on everything.  You talk all the time and it is music to mommy's ears.  You have been fighting a snotty nose and hopefully it will clear up soon, because you REALLY don't like the saline drops and getting your nose sucked out!  Last night you almost laughed!  You have wanted to for a long time now.  I can tell that you want to laugh with how you smile.  You have also started talking in a really squeaky voice and it makes me laugh and smile.  You are such a blessing and I thank God everyday for you.  The last time I took you to the doctor you weighed 11 lbs 5 oz!  You are still wearing 0-3 month clothing and some of those are even too big still.  I recently switched you to Pamper Swaddlers Sensitive because your little bottom seemed to be red a lot.  You are in a size 1 diaper.  You can still only roll over from your tummy to your back but you are still working on the other way.  You can push yourself up on your side and lay like that, but haven't push all the way over.  You are a very happy baby!  You smile all the time!  You are trying to sit up but still need help staying up.  You have started stomping your feet and standing on one leg when you stand in our lap.  You love to stand and sit up!  People always want to lay you down to hold you and it makes you fuss.  You are a very schedule oriented baby.  Since being in daycare you have developed a schedule and get a little fussy when it gets messed up.  You wake up once a night to nurse and it is usually between 4-6.  After I wake you up and get you ready for daycare you "snack" at 7:30 then take a 4 oz bottle of mommy's milk around 9:30.  I come to see you everyday at 12:30 to let you nurse and it makes my day.  You eat another 4 oz bottle around 3:30 I pick you up between 5-5:30 then once we get home you will usually nurse again around 6.  I usually start getting you ready for bed around 8:30 and then you nurse before you fall asleep.  I love the time I spend with you nursing, it makes me feel peaceful and calm.  I am running a touch behind on your 3 month pictures but we are getting those taken this weekend.


I love you my beautiful baby girl!


Love,
Mommy
