THREE months

My beautiful Quinny, in your third month of life:

-You are wearing mostly 3 month clothing and some 3-6 months.
-You are wearing a size 1 diaper.
-You weighed in at 12 lbs 4 oz 2 weeks ago!
-You are still eating breast milk exclusively and are nursing really well. You have a bottle while at daycare, but still nurse when we get home and at night.
-You have started taking at least 5 ounces every bottle and sometimes going all the way up to 7!
-You stayed with Nanny for a week and then Kevin the next when I went back to work. :(
-You started daycare the 14th.
-You are still sleeping in the pack-n-play in our room. We'll move you to your room as soon as you start sleeping through the night! :)
-You have been sleeping a little less this month. I think you've been having a growth spurt, because there's been tons of Mommy and Quinny time around midnight, 2 AM, and 4 AM most nights. :)
-You get up several times most nights, but you did sleep 10 hours straight the night of the 18th from 8:15-6:15
-We knew something was wrong after you slept 10 hours straight, and we spent the night of the 19th in the ER with your first illness and fever of 102 +.
-You were diagnosed with an upper respiratory infection and ear infection.
-You took your first antibiotic to get rid of the sickness.
-You stayed over night with Nanny for the first time after we got your sickness. You stayed Thursday, Friday, Saturday, and Sunday night and loved every minute of it while your Mommy and Daddy were getting rest trying to get better!
-You are smiling and cooing all the time. You get excited when someone you know walks in the room and get the biggest grin. It definitely makes anything bad go away immediately!
-You are starting to do a small little laugh. It melts your Daddy's heart. It's one of the best sounds we've heard!
-You are ticklish on your little toes. Your curl them and start kicking if we start tickling you.
-You now officially hate tummy time and just scream until you roll yourself over or we pick you up.
-Your hair is growing like a weed. It's getting so long so fast!
-Your eyes are still blue and are the prettiest little eyes we've ever seen!
-You still love bath time SO much, and we love how you smell so sweet after we get you out.
-You enjoy being propped up so you can see everything. You will turn your head from one side to the other as long as you're awake.
-You are starting to work your abs a lot. :) You would much rather sit up than lay flat so when you are flat you bring your chin to your belly trying to sit yourself up.
-You will hold your hands together and just stare at them for several minutes at a time with the biggest eyes. It's so adorable!
-Once you realize they'll move you immediately try to put your full fist into your mouth.
-You like to grab at things and put things into your mouth. This makes dressing you, covering you, and putting you in your car seat pretty entertaining.
-You like for us to let you stand up in our laps. You smile so big and continue turning your head from side to side looking at as much as you can.
-You're still pretty good in the car as long as you have your paci. You let us know if it comes out very quickly!

Sweet Quinny, your Daddy and I love you so much and cannot believe how much better you make every day for us. Each morning is so special when you are so happy and just want to laugh with us. This summer is going to be so fun watching you grow and learn new things.
