3 months


yeah, our baby is hardly a newborn any longer- she is now THREE MONTHS OLD!

so this is what she can do at 3 months:

+she now drinks 5-6 ounces at once which means she can go 4-5 hours between meals. This is pretty much like a normal human! Its so nice! Plus this means...

+she is nearly sleeping through the night. She doesn't eat during the night {which is nice} but she still gets up once or twice just to make sure we are still there and loving her. Basically we just stick her binky back in and she's good.


+she sleeps in her own room! It was really sad for me at first- I missed hearing every little breath but we have a monitor and never miss a cry- and it is nice to have our bedroom back.

+she loves sitting up and standing up. We got her a bumbo chair last night and she really likes it (though she looks like she hates it in pretty much all the pictures i'm posting) she looks adorable in it.

+she loves to smile and and is especially sweet right when she wakes up in the morning. she is still working on truly laughing but she does squeal when she gets excited. Nic likes to tickle her little belly and she really likes it.

+she still loves to kick and punch.

+from the best i can tell she weighs about 11.5 pounds, putting her in the 10th percentile for weight. she doesn't go to the dr. for another month.

+she has quite the little grip. I was eating baby carrots the other day and i put one in her hand and she held onto it for a few minutes. it was way cute.

+i still think she is the cutest baby ever, as i should, i'm the mom.

bad... to worse...

I know this is mean, but i LOVE this look of sheer horror on her face.


then, i put the bink in her mouth and it was bliss.




this little outfit from jenny is so freaking adorable. i love my little hippie chick.
this is one of my favorite pictures of her ever.




cutest dress from Rayna {thank you!}. I am so glad I looked at the tag this week-
i thought it was HUGE when she bought it but it was just 3 months!



this is another one of my favorites. good job nic :) i love it because she doesn't look super chubby in her cheeks so you can actually see her adorable little chin- and of course those big blue eyes- for all you doubters she is 3 months old and they are still blue!

I like how you show the older pics for comparison. Kewl.

You're not mean, you're funny :)

Am I to understand that there are people out there who think Daphne doesn't (didn't?) have blue eyes? Because I distinctly remember pronouncing them BLUE on my trip out Rexburg way, when she wasn't even 3 weeks old. Hmmph!

As I mentioned before, she is offensively cute.

man, she is stinkin' adorable! She's getting so big, I can't believe it! I'm glad she's eating more and able to go longer between feedings for you. What sweet relief! Here comes some sleep huh? Hope so anyway. Oh- and that black cherry outfit is to die for! Really is super cute!

ahhh, such a cute baby and such great pictures. I just whipped out our bumbo for Scarlett and started taking pictures too. It is fun to spy on another little babe around the same age.
