I am three months old
Three month birthday
Today I am three months old. It has been another busy and fun month. There were a lot of firsts for me. I went to my first movie, my first wedding, my first museum and stayed for the first time with a babysitter other than Nana (the Thomas’s and the Ossenforts).
Everyone says that I have changed a lot this month. Daddy was in Germany for two weeks and when he came back, he said I had grown a lot. He could also tell that I had learned some new things. I now smile all the time. I smile at people when they look at me and make faces or when they talk to me. Really I smile a lot. I am a happy baby. I also have become much more independent. Mommy can put me in my swing, my bouncy seat, on my play mat or really just about anywhere and I am happy for at least thirty minutes. She likes it because I am more entertained and also it gives her more time to do things around the house. I also am learning to talk. No one can understand what I am saying, but I have conversations all the time. Pretty much we just say “oooh”. I also found something very exciting - my hands. I put them in my mouth all the time. Mommy laughs because sometimes I smack on them so loudly while in my crib that she can hear me from the den. I am starting to be able to find individual fingers too, but I have not decided which one I like best.
I sleep really well too. I go to bed every night at about 9″00 and wake up at about 8:30 the next morning with only having to eat once in the middle of the night. Some of my friends go to bed and get up much earlier, but Mommy and Daddy are glad that I have chosen this schedule because they are not early morning people.
Mom is also excited because I have decided this week that a bottle is not that bad afterall. That will give her a chance to let daddy or Nana babysit more since I can eat while she is gone.
Month three has been a good one. I cannot wait to see what I learn to do this next month.
