Lillie is 3 Months Old!




Lillie was 3 months old on the 27th!  She is growing so fast and getting cuter by the day!  She weighs 11 pounds 4 ounces and is 22 inches long.

So I know that this isn't the best overall picture since I cut part of the chalkboard off, but it was the cutest one of her so I figured y'all wouldn't mind!  Who cares about a dumb old chalkboard anyway when there's a pretty baby in the picture! 

She's got her daddy's crooked little smile :)
Lillie’s Accomplishments:
  • She can hold her head up pretty well!  Before long, we know she won't need any support at all. 
  • She has started smiling and recognizing us.  She smiles at me when she hears my voice when I pick her up from daycare.  It is so, so sweet and makes me forget my long day at work. My pediatric book says that only about half of babies this age are able to do this so I'm super proud of our smart girl!
  • She's started sleeping more through the night.  This week, she has woken up for middle of the night feedings, but we know she can sleep from 10:30 pm to 6 pm on a good night.
  • She's learned to like taking baths.  In the beginning she cried through the whole thing-kinda traumatizing.  The second month, she was kinda fussy during bath time.  But this past month she just sits in her little tub and relaxes!
  • She's filling out her 0-3 month clothes!  She just might grow through these sets of clothes the fastest!
  • She has really started cooing.  We love talking to her and taking in all those little baby sounds she makes.  
      Things we have learned:
    • She is one of the popular kids. When Justin drops her off a daycare, all the kids yell her name and are so excited to see her!
    • She's going to be a morning person....which is good in house where one of us is a grump in the mornings, and I'm not talking about Justin ;)
    • She really does love her mama.  That is something that I have struggled with-thinking that she didn't like me.  I don't get to see her much in the mornings because of all the crap I have to do to get us out the door, but when I tell her goodbye, she gets all excited and smiley!  It's hard to go to work after that!  But I love it.
    • She loves to have farting contests with her daddy.  And she wins sometimes.  For Real.







    As usual, I am behind on my blogging but I'll have her first valentines day, first trip to Corsicana, and first over night trip soon!  And if our weekend goes well, I might even have a craft or two to share!
