All the Petty Stuff: 3 Month Update

Colbi, you are three whole months old! I can't believe it!

You are getting so big! I'm not completely sure how much you weigh, but I'm guessing you've gained about a pound since your last doctor visit. You will go back in four weeks and we'll see!

You wear a size 2 diaper, 3-6 month clothing depending on the brand. Your 3 month pants are becoming too short.....I think this will be a continual problem thru out life. Ha!

You are still nursing well, thank goodness. You eat 5-6 times a day, about 6ish oz. per feeding (although your nighttime feeding tends to be a little more). No formula yet, I'm hoping we can continue with just breast milk for awhile longer. I don't like specific timelines with you, so we will just play it by ear.

You already have a bit of separation anxiety, which I am hoping going to the babysitters will help. You are okay in new places after about an hour of screaming it out. We need to work on that! Mommy and Daddy get awful embarrassed when you act like "that" baby. We know its just a phase.

You have been sleeping great! Anywhere from 6-8 hour straight, although we started last night the transition to your crib and you HATE it. I know it's the laying flat part, and I don't think you're a fan of your mattress. Last night was ROUGH for Mommy, but that gummy smile can make anything better.

You are grabbing lots of things these days, fingers, your bottle, your paci (you love to pull it out and put it back in, I think you think it's funny!), and are starting to grab my hair. You are also much more interested in stuff, cups, sounds, colors.......it's so fun to watch you follow things around the room.

Gigi and Pops still see you at least once a week. It drives Pops crazy you won't sleep on his chest because you are more worried about sitting up. I have a feeling you will sit up way before you roll over. Although, you are a pro at tummy time. You just won't roll over yet! Gigi and Pops love you so much!

Avery is becoming more fun with you. She knows exactly who you are and seems concerned when you cry or are unhappy. I love that y'all will be at the same daycare!

Ooma and Papa also enjoy their time with you and love you. We went down to visit them for a few hours this weekend. You weren't at all sure about your surroundings and it took sometime to adjust. But it was fun for Brenna, Braiden, Aunt Kristen, and Uncle CJ to spend a little time with you too. Braiden thinks you don't like him, you cry when he holds you. Maybe next time you can smile instead? :)

We all love you so much! You are such a funny, independent little lady already and Daddy and Mommy love holding you and loving on you. You like to cuddle and that makes weekends really fun for us.
