three months old

Happy 3 month birthday, sweet girl! We've loved getting to know your adorable personality more and more this past month!

At three months old:

- we took you out to eat at Carrabba's on Feb. 18. You slept the whole time!
- you went to Bible Fellowship (Sunday School) with Mommy for the first time on Feb. 23 and Daddy
  took you to the church service on March 2. You slept through both!
- you laughed a few big belly laughs at our play date with Nathan and Emmeline White on Feb. 25
  I don't know what Nathan (he's 3) was doing, but I told him to keep doing it because you thought it
  was so funny! You're definitely starting to laugh more and more!
- you stayed with your first babysitter (who wasn't Nana or Rah Rah) on Feb. 28! Mommy went back
  to work that day and Miss Mary Claire stayed with you! You had a great day!
- you and Daddy stayed together all day March 2 when I worked and, again, you had a great day!
- you had your first dinner date with Clifton at Longhorn on March 1. Y'all both slept the whole time!
- you rolled over (twice) from belly to back for the first time on March 7! And did it again twice the
  next day!
- you love your piano playmat!
- we tried the Baby Bjorn carrier for a walk on March 9 and you seemed to like it- you fell asleep!
- your smile is the most beautiful thing we have ever seen! The best thing is going into your room
  when you're waking up and are all smiles for us!
- you love to talk and we love to listen to you!
- you have been sleeping in your crib every night since you turned 2 months old! Your first stretch of
  the night is between 5-8 hours and then the second stretch is 3-4 hrs. You also take at least a
  couple of naps in there a day (usually an hour each).
- this past month I really zoned in on your sleeping cues- you can usually stay up anywhere from 1-
  1.5 hrs after waking (including feeding time). If you stop playing on your piano or get quiet, you're
  usually ready for a nap, but if you get fussy, it's past time.
- girl, you are so active- always swinging your arms and kicking your legs, especially when you
  get excited!
- ever since you found your hands, you love to suck on them! Which makes your little hands slimy
  all the time!
- and I'm just going to say it: Shout and Oxi Clean stain removers have been our best friends this
  past month! Girl, you have some major blow outs!
