Back to Livi - Sweet girl, I can't believe another month has gone by! We thought time went by quickly with Jackson, but it most definitely goes by even quicker the second time around. You continue to grow and change daily! You are awake a lot more now and happy almost all of the time. We just love seeing your smiling face and love that you are starting to interact more. You are a very good natured baby. You seem like you are going to be easy going and happy. Your personality definitely makes adding a second baby to the family much easier than we anticipated. And we sure are glad that you are part of our little family!
Here is an update on month three:
- Sleeping - you continue to be a great little sleeper and have slept several 11-12 hours nights. You most consistanly go about 8-9 hours before waking and then go back to sleep for a little while. We transitioned you to your crib right after you turned 2 months too and the transition went very well. You didn't skip a beat!
- Napping - most days you still take a great nap in the morning with two shorter naps in the afternoon and early evening. Sometimes we still have a fourth short nap, but really fight that. I think you are just trying to move up your bedtime and get more of a routine going. I'm excited for that!
- Eating - you're still a good eater although you are nursing for longer periods of time. You seem to over eat and spit up quite a bit. You are also starting to do a little bit better with the bottle. Some days you will take it fine and others fight it. We will keep practicing though! You are currently nursing about 5-6 times a day, depending on how early you wake up.
- You are starting to get a lot more playful and can hold an object when placed in your hand for a while and have started grabbing at toys that are in front of you. You particularly enjoy the toy strapped to your car seat. You bat at it with your hands and kick at it with your feet!
- You play with your hands a ton.
- Right around 2.5 months (8/12) you rolled from back to front twice in your crib - it was the strangest thing! I was shocked to see you on your tummy since you've never tried rolling before and you still have not rolled from tummy to back.
- You tend to roll on your side to sleep most nights and still work at rolling when in your crib but have not mastered it again.
- Your head control improved drastically this month! You can hold your head high during tummy time and really enjoy being held out where you can look around.
- You prefer standing when someone is holding you or to be looking out. If we hold you against us you like to hold your head up and look over our shoulders.
- You are extremely vocal and let out lots of high pitched shrieks/squeals. You are also close to laughing!
- You smile at yourself in the mirror a lot.
- Although I don't know your exact height and weight, you continue to be a growing girl! You are in mostly in 3-6 and 6 months clothes. You have a few things in 6-9 that you can wear for length! We recently switched you to size 2 diapers. You are getting so long and skinny!
Sweet girl, we just love you so much! You are so laid-back and fit great into your craziness. Thankfully, it doesn't seem to bother you. :) This month has been the most fun and I know that over the next few weeks and month you are going to be changing even faster. We look forward to seeing more of your personality develop and can't wait to see you and Jackson interacting more. Love you little princess!

Look at that head held high!
I just love how she smiles with all of her face! Such a happy little girl.
Celebrating sweet Livi with some friends.
These two hold my heart in their tiny little hands.
That smile again...
She started sucking her thumb this month and it is so stinking cute!
"I hold you sissy?" Jacks is turning into the best big brother!
She got in the pool for the first time in TN! We have more pics somewhere, I will try to post later.
Happy three months baby girl!!!
