Just chilling in my crib. peace sign.
Ella is 3 months old! And I swear she is getting cuter and cuter each day! She's also getting more smiley and talkative and interactive--its so fun! I like her so much more now, ha! And she likes me so much more now too, its great. When she sees my face and I talk to her she just gets the biggest smile and she'll look at me like I'm greatest thing in the entire universe and then she'll start cooing and gurgling so loud and kicking her legs--I love it!
We have FINALLY made some progress with sleeping this past month. Ella will usually give us one 5-6 hour stretch at night, followed by 2-3 hours after that. So I usually only have to get up with her 3 times a night, plus once to pump. Which is way better than every 2 hours on the dot, plus twice to pump. Hopefully this continues to get better.
We also had her first vaccinations this month which was awful. Ella had a fever for the next day and a half, and was very fussy and it threw off her sleep for an entire week--ahhh!
But the other thing they did when we were at the Dr.'s office was take all her measurements! Here are the stats:
Height: 22.6in--28th percentile
Weight: 11lbs--25th percentile
Head Circumference: 41cm--81st percentile
So she has a small, skinny body and a big head!
At 3 months Ella:
-loves music, all types and especially when mom sings
-loves to suck on her hands, and is starting to put everything she grabs into her mouth
-coos and gurgles and blabs and squawks and makes all kinds of noise
-loves it when people talk and interact with her and is usually very smiley
-rolls on her sides and scoots down in her swing and bouncer
-is a horrible, horrible napper = lots of fussy time due to a tired baby
-her hair is getting thicker on top, yay!
-still sleeps in her bassinet at night next to mom
-and mom still exclusively pumps and is still dairy free
