Lilah at 3 months

What a sweet sweet joy you are to us baby girl. You are the easiest and most content baby ever. While you aren't much for napping during the day, it doesn't make you fussy and you are content to lay in your bouncy seat or stroller and look around at your little hanging toys, drifting off occasionally to take a 20-30 min power nap.



Your brothers loooove you. Fin kisses and kisses you until I tell him to give you some space. Every morning when you wake up, I coo and smile quietly to you in my bed until one of your brothers realize we're in there, then they both come bombarding into the room to kiss and talk to you. I think you love it but you do get a little tense when you hear their little footsteps coming :o)
Cole is getting more and more enamored with you. While there's been no jealousy, he does like me to "hold him like a baby" more since you've been here.


You are a big girl! At your two month 2 weeks, you were 16 lbs 4 oz. The doctor said you were a nine month old size in a 2 month olds body :o) We love love love your chubs and kissing your sweet cheeks. You are such a lovable little cuddler but you do love to face outwards, mostly I think so you don't miss a thing.


Most days, you are going to the Y for a little bit in the morning where the workers all fight over who gets to rock you. They call you the easiest baby in the nursery and you never cry. I think you like sitting in a new bouncy seat and watching the activity ;) In the afternoons you typically are at the pool where you lay on a towel staring at the trees or you hang out on my lap with your little toes in the water.



You and I are pals. Everywhere I go, you go. Mainly because youre a nursing babe who loves her milk, but also because I love your easy company and I love that everytime I catch your eye while you're in the stroller, you break out in the biggest smile.





Every night I put you down a little after 7pm and you typically sleep till between 4-5am, nurse, and then go back down until 7-8 am, which is amaaaaaazing. Glory, praise, hallelujah. Your brothers were still waking up every 2-3 hours at this point, and you've been doing this schedule since you were 4 weeks old. Mama is very grateful because our daytimes are busy busy.


Your daddy loves to howl, snuggle you, and make you dance to silly songs. He gets jealous if he hears me talking to you in the other room and will push me aside to try to steal smiles :o)


You are another joy in our family. You are so loved and we couldn't be more grateful to have you.
