3 Months Old

When I try to think back to the early days with Evelyn, it seems like a lifetime ago.  I bought a journal before she was born, but have yet to pick it up and write in it, problem is. . . I'm already beginning to forget some of the things I thought I would always remember. . . not good!  I have been so blessed and fortunate to stay at home with Evelyn and have a front row seat watching her grow and change everyday.  And that she does!  It is a little intimidating though thinking about the responsibility I have to help her grow and develop!  Hopefully I won't rub off on her too much:)

Evelyn turned 3 months on January 26th.  She loves "singing" and "talking", her favorite fun songs are "Itsy-Bitsy Spider" and "Patty Cake", her favorite lullabies are "My Old Kentucky Home" and "You are My Sunshine".  She loves listening to her Dr. Suess books and still loves to kick around on her activity mat.  Once upon a time she liked to lay on her belly, but not so much anymore.  So, we are working really hard on enjoying that again, especially since she's gotten a flat spot from laying on her back too much:(  We have started feeding her a little bit of rice cereal with a spoon.  She's still trying to grasp the concept of the spoon, but we're getting there.  Thankfully she doesn't really care what we feed her at this point, as long as we feed her.  She is passionate about her food, hmmm, wonder who she gets that from :)  She weighs around 13 lbs now and we've had to move her up to size 3-6 months in most of her clothes.  It's her length where I can really see a difference, a whopping 24 inches!  I'm still waiting to hear a true laugh, but she's getting really close.  Evelyn loves to "stand" with only a little assistance, I think she's really going to like her jumper when she's able to sit a little better.  I leave you with pictures. . .
