Happy 3 months, Emmy Claire!!
We are so happy to have you at our house. You are the sweetest, cuddliest little gal ever. We sometimes forget you are there because you are such a quiet and content baby. You have the softest voice, the prettiest eyes and the most peaceful demeanor. I am pretty sure it is three-way tie who loves you the most in our home! Let's see what you have been up to this month.
Three month stats:
- I would guess you weigh about 13-14 pounds
- You are eating 5 bottles a day at 6 ounces each which is every three hours. You are still drinking the Alimentum formula and taking 2.5 ml's of Prevacid each day.
- You are still a super star sleeper at nighttime. You take you last bottle about 7:30 at night and sleep till 7:30 the next morning. You have been doing this pretty consistently since 10 weeks. You are still swaddled at night but I have to go in about once a night and re-swaddle you so I think soon you will be growing out of that soon
- You have become a great napper too. You take about 4 naps a day. The morning one at 9:00 or so is about 1.5 hours, the next at 12:00 for about 45 minutes, the next at 2:00 for about 2.5-3 hours and last one in the evening about 6:15 for about thirty minutes. Your short naps are in the swing and your long naps are swaddled in your bed.
- Your hair still stand straight up but it is more of a light brown. The peach fuss on your head is very short and has a blondish-redish tint to it. Your eyes are still bright blue.
- You are wearing a size one diaper and 3 month clothing but I think you will be moving up in both of those soon.
- You are SOOO easy going. You rarely cry during the day and if you do it is b/c you have a good reason -- hungry, tired, wet, poopy or Lincoln is laying on top of you! Ha!
- You love to be talked to and smile often. You have not laughed yet but you do make a small little sound sometimes when you smile like you are close to laughing.
- You have started batting at the toys in the bouncy seat as well as grabbing a hold of items like your shirt and mommy's hair.
- You have not rolled over completely yet. If I put you on your tummy and get you started about 20% of the way then you can roll over the rest to your back but I have to help get you started!
- You still love the bath. I think it makes your stomach feel better b/c lately have been pooping in there. Let's not make this a habit, ok? :)
- You sometimes get really upset if Lincoln scares you or if you feel like you have been left alone and you don't want to be. You seem to scare easily and be much more fragile than we are use to around here! :) You have the funniest facial expressions.
- You have the absolute softest coos and gurgles. You have started "talking" more when you are by yourself or in the backseat of the car.
- You do have a love for Lincoln but at times you are unsure what to think of all the attention from him. He is a super big fan of you and is protective when we are around others who are holding you. He often tells them "That's my Emmy!" You are one of the first things he talks about when he wakes up, he loves to go with me to get you up from your naps, give you your paci and bring you your blanket and lovie.
And here is the monthly comparison of you and Lincoln. I do see resemblances in a way but I also think you guys each look very different from one another. We sure do love you both like crazy though.
